I'm stressed at work, stressed at home. If I wasn't experiencing stress in one of these environments I'd be able to cope with the other but I really don't know where to turn to begin making things better. 6yo dd is having what I can only describe as a mental health breakdown. Suspected SEN ("fine at school") and wont/ can't get dressed, verbally and physically abusive and I wake every morning knowing it's going to be a battle to get her out of the house/ to school/ to her cm. Sometimes she doesn't make it. She's been referred and is in the system but help is not coming soon so we're muddling through. I have a new line manager at work and the organisation is undergoing yet another restructure. Ordinarily I can deal with these things but my boss is difficult, critical, demotivating me and my staff, abrupt and, well, just not very good at managing people. He's replied to one email from me, yet will be on my back for the smallest reasons. I think he's also receiving negative briefings from someone else I have had a long standing issue with. Generally, I get on well with people and my team all speak highly of me, so I don't think this is a case of me being wrong. I get racing heart, frequently tearful, feel like I can do nothing to improve my situation either at work or at home. If I go off stressed it will work against me in the restructure, and the way my boss already clearly perceives me. And my little girl needs me, bless her heart. She needs calm and patience and love.
