Don’t know what to do

Hi mums
I’m 22 weeks pregnant and feeling totally overwhelmed. Feeling at crisis point this evening and don’t know where to turn. I feel like everything is happening at once. My grandmother is very unwell and is at the last few days of her life, my mother is suffering with extreme anxiety and I feel responsible for looking after her and my step father, we have recently bought a new house which we have ripped apart and we have to move out of our current flat on the weekend and into somewhere with no kitchen and is incredibly messy (floorboards all up, ceiling down, tools and dust everywhere, workmen in all day everyday), my grandparents on my mums side are working on the house all day every day and I’m so concerned as they are in their 70s and my grandad is having a pacemaker next week, my work is very stressful - I work in intensive care, and my partner and I have been on totally opposite shifts for weeks meaning I see him for a maximum 20 mins a day. I feel I have too much to cope with and no where to turn. I’m getting really worked up right now and I just don’t know what to do. I need immediate help but I don’t know where from

Sounds like you need to take some time out before your mental health takes a dive. You can self certificate for a week and you should probably let your midwife know.

Any scope for living with family or paying for a hotel until basic amenities are in?
