[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Every couple weeks or so I'll have a day when I feel pretty depressed, and I'll try to do something to make it better, like order something good for lunch or dinner.

I try to get out of the house to the park with 3yo every day that it isn't raining buckets. I try to do calls with people (either for the kid or for me).

I cannot keep up with keeping my house clean. Even if I worked on it from morning to night and ignored the kid, I don't see how it would all get done (and I'm not willing to ignore the kid).

I'm not even working at a job, and it's still super overwhelming sometimes. [/quote]

I’m currently laid off. I’d like to be doing online classes, but everything you just said is why I can’t. My husband has been working from home and has had a light schedule but won’t offer assistance during the day and has been pretending to be working during his lunch break. I found him taking a nap the other day. I don’t begrudge him not helping but it would be awesome if that hour he has off he could spell me for a few minutes. We have a very high needs child and I’m disintegrating as a adult human. He doesn’t help much more in the weekends either. He wants to do his workout and gets irritated with our child lately, so when/if I go for a run it’s utter chaos when I get home. It’s been rough. [/quote]

Adding, it was not like this when we both were working out of the home. I don’t like that’s it’s suddenly the 1950s around here. [/quote]
