[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP you sound like you are in a serious crisis. The tooth will be fine but only if you find a way to get sleep. Are you able to check yourself into a very nice rehab facility? Twice weekly therapy isn't nearly enough for you right now. [/quote]

No I can't. I have two young kids and I don't really know what they would be able to do for me except maybe catch up on sleep. I feel like I would be worried about the repercussions of doing something like that and my family (namely mother in law) judging me and lording it over my head until she dies. :-)[/quote]

Catch up on sleep, now. Even if it’s just checking into a hotel. You have the stress of full time caregiving plus no sleep plus all this emotional trauma. I would stop thinking about your mother in law and think about whether you might develop an even more serious health issue if you don’t put yourself first for a period of time.

Where is your partner in all this? At minimum you need to be able to take several days off caretaking completely for the next month. Get a vaccinated babysitter (or two) and focus on yourself.[/quote]
