I have name changed
Basic details married 5 together 10 3 kids under 4
Husband works long hours and when I say long 12 hours in work then farm work outside of that
I am responsible for everything regarding children and house.
He is responsible for everything financial
We are both exhausted and stressed out
I feel like I've given up. We are 2 people living in the same house with 2 different roles. Both stressful
No fun no joy nothing
All 5 of us are suffering and obviously its heightened and the moment with restrictions

Just wondering if anyone had similar experience. I feel like I'm going round and round a hamster wheel

Maybe it's time to plan some life changes when lockdown is over? Could you move somewhere else, work in a different area etc?

Dont think we could afford to move. Work wise something has to give. I have said I will go back full time but that means putting 3 children in childcare and my entire wages going on that. Feel lost and cant see a way out.

Yeah three children in childcare is expensive! Try to remember that at some point they will be in school and you will be able to work then. This times are hard but won't last forever!
