Hate it already

Just started a new job 3 days a week. I had previously looked after my dad full time for over 15 years till he passed away. I am on my own with 2 children.
Anyway I have had to get a job but I hate it,
The kids have to get up at 6 so I can drop them off.
My anxiety is through the roof.
I can't sleep. I don't get home till 5.
I know I have to work but this job is now impacting on them . They are so tired .
I am exhausted I don't have anyone to relay on.
I don't know what to do. I am going to be ill if I carry on my health isn't great because of back problems.. I am starting to look for something else.
Don't know what to do

How old are your children?

You say they will be exhausted but it's not even half the week if you think about it logically.
And it will become easier as they get older.

Believe it or not I am still at the sane job and I am so pleased I did

Aw that's great! It must have been such a big change to go from caring into a more formal job role. I'm glad you've stuck it out and are finding it better now!
