I am always asked to do things for others and when I say I can't becuase... people get angry with me. I have to be responsiable for a family of 5 plus my fur family plus I work only part time. I think I am going through mid life crises as I feel my existance is meaningless and I want to change the world somehow. I feel anxious and unhappy. This weeekend I asked my family to help clean up around the house and they all found an excuse to aviod it. what makes this so bad is that I have been asking for a very long time and my requests have continuously are ignored. This is now a matter of mental health. I had a friend visist from out of state and I was so embarrased that I could not even have her over to my house, I had to meet her at my moms. My drain is blocked,vaccum broke and fridge leaks.
On top of all of this my hours at work have been cut and I really need to find another way to make some money. I need to find something that I can do from home because my two boys require help to keep them on tract with school.
I just feel so overwhelmed and just needed to let it out. Thanks. |
Maybe you should so something for yourself instead of working more. How about a volunteer job where you feel like you are making a difference in the world? As for the house being a mess - I think you should just make a plan and do it. You will feel better -- not only that you accomplished the tasks but that you have a really clean house! Use all natural items too so you can save money plus feel good about what you are using. If you need any help with green natural ways to clean, I went chemical free a few years ago.
As for the blocked drain - try 1 cup of baking soda on the drain, pour one cup of white vinegar on top and let it bubble. When that is done, follow up with 1 cup of hot water. If that does not clear the drain after two attempts, you need a plumber.
I can't help with the vacuum or the fridge
