You are not mentally well because all these issues are not pressing or particularly hard to deal with for a mentally healthy person.

Please call your doctor to get a full work-up in case there's a physical cause, and if/when that's ruled out, get a referral to a psychiatrist who will start you on medication.

Let's rapidly parse through the issues now:

1. Your sister and parents do not need your help NOW. Do not freak out over something that hasn't happened and isn't likely to. You are not obligated to provide for your sister or your parents. Your parents can go to medicare nursing homes. Your sister will fend for herself.

2. Your children are independent and not in need of help, great.

3. Your husband is independent and not in need of help, great.

4. I'm sorry about your pet in intensive care, but for the moment you have no control over the outcome.

5. I understand there's another sick pet, but not critical? It's hard work, but you can do it.

Please call your doctor, OP. You are not well.

+1. You actually have very little responsibility in your life right now and should be enjoying your freedom… but you aren’t. You are manufacturing crises that you are allowing to drag you down. You need a 180 degree change in attitude and likely need therapy to help you recognize that. 
Good luck.  I hope you find peace and joy again. It is there if you look[/quote]

I expect both your checks within the week. I assume you both are ready to help the with the financial strain since my folks can't afford to live in their home anymore? So kind of you both to offer.[/quote]
