[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think you should get your thyroid tested, if you haven't already. Take vitamin D. It sticks out to me that you are exhausted now even while on break. That seems like a sign that quitting your job alone would not solve this.

How can you get more time for yourself? Let's assume you need to regain an hour a day for exercise or personal time. What is possible? Could you hire more help, or could your kid watch TV with DH? Hire cleaning help? Teach the 6 yo to do more? You need to save yourself, here.

Op here. My vitamin d levels are low but not super low and I’ve been treating that for several months now. I’ve noticed zero difference. I’m also taking antidepressants and adderall.

My DD has zero interest in screens, unfortunately. We even got her a brand new iPad for Christmas and she won’t use it for more than a minute or two at a time.

Slightly off topic….but I found that treating vitamin d with supplements didn’t work and only saw a difference when I got more actual sunlight. Not sure how you are treating it.

It sounds to me that quitting your job won’t help. Can you get an au pair in addition to the nanny so that you can have more time to yourself after work? I think sometimes you can get them paid through Medicaid waivers (this is based on what I have heard not experience) so the overall cost might not be that bad. [/quote]
