Feeling overwhelmed

Where to start .......

I'm 38, have a DH and Ds3. We all plod along normally - some issues but nothing out of the ordinary.

Past week or so we have been to MIL house to feed her cats while she was away, she has always been messy but her house now is a new kind of hazard - there is rubbish all over the house, fruit flies, shoes, clothes, bags of everything.

There is a pathway through and one chair to sit on. I have no clue where to start on this - we obviously need to speak to her about it but where to start that conversation.

This has been the straw that has broken me, my niece is struggling with her mental health and regularly cries for help by attempting suicide, my cousin has just entered rehab for a pain killer addiction.

I was coping, I was strong but now I just cry ..... it's too much. I get that these aren't my issues but it's just become so overwhelming.

How do others cope?? How do I cope??
