Hi all...Today I have had it...My stress level lately has really gotten the best of me.
My business is doing well, but there are so many issues that I have to constantly deal with that it seems that I spend more time dealing with them than actually doing the work that needs done.
My kids are driving me completely insane and my house is a mess. I determined that this afternoon when I tried to walk through one room and stepped on what I believe was the remnants of someones breakfast. I clean constantly but it doesn't do any good.
My relationship has been good, (and for those of you who understand), but I have had to work really hard on being the "strong" one the last couple of weeks and sometimes I wonder if I am just wearing myself out for no reason. I love this woman more than anything in the world (other than my kids), but helping her face her demons everyday is really starting to wear on me. And with her "monthly visistor" here this week, the mood swings have been so violent that I have felt the need to duck and cover, but I know I have to stand and take the brunt of it.
I guess what I am asking, is when do you hit that point when enough is enough and you just say...crap...why do I continue doing the things I am doing?
I could work as a burger flipper and make twice as much as I do now, I could clean all day (although I might have to lock my kids in their room to get it to stay that way), and I guess I could live without someone in my life..I have done it for two years so it isn't like it is new territory, although it isn't what I really want.
I wish I could go to bed for a week and relearn how to sleep at nights, and get up in the morning without feeling that the wieght of the world is on my shoulders constantly.
Is this just cabin fever? Is there a more serious issue here? Or am I just being a baby about the whole thing?
Thanks...
