Re: All alone
Hi @lolliepop,
Can you write a list of things that have to get done the next few days and things that can go on the back burner for a day or two.
Thinking of everything at once can be overwhelming, so simplify it. For example, cooking tea, pick the simplest, quickest prepared meal you can.
I like @outlander suggestion of squeezing in studying between jobs too.
Good lluck and remember we are here if you need it

i havent managed to study today yet. iv been busy with the house and now the kids are home. and one has a chest indection to.
i dont know how im going to get though it. i know im going to fk it up. and it will be the first one to. iv always have acheived 80% higher thoughout my units. most of it over 90%.
looks like i will be up late tonight when the kids are in bed , studying. then ill feel fk for tomorrow then.
i woke up in a very weird mood this morning. i cant even explain it. i was hot and cold. very snappy with the kids. didnt know what i was doing or where i was . i had to take my meds and more a lot more for anxiety. i just had to just to calm myself down. it felt like i was going through psychosis. but afer an hour or 2 , i started to calm down. i really hope i dont wake up like that again tomorrow. its not a nice feeling

Re: ks guysRe: All alone
Hi @lolliepop
Sorry today started of so difficult but glad you managed to feel calmer later on. Sounds like you are under a lot of pressure and ongoing high stress - be careful not to burn out, that could be already starting to occur? Very difficult to address when we are under so much pressure with many responsibilities, dead lines and commitments & worries - but please be careful not to overdo it.
I hope you get a chance to have some time out soon and enjoy some well deserved relaxation, better sleep and rest for that much needed balance. As continuing at such a high pressured pace can take its toll I have experienced. Hope tomorrow will be a better day for you. Look after yourself lovely. Sitting with you listening xx

Hi @lolliepop
@Former-Memberhas made some wonderful points there.
Sometimes it is about finding that balance. I know how hard it is with kids, especially if anxiety is up.
Hoping you wake tomorrow calmer than today.
