[QUOTE="dstc_99, post: 578742, member: 15473"] Allright enough beating yourself up. If you kids don't brush their teeth at night or take a bath no one is going to die! If they eat out of a drive through instead of at a table they will survive. If your boss keeps complaining at work call in the EEO and get them on board with accomodations. Hell stick a **** bell there with a note that says please ring the bell even if I am sitting here. As for the house I bet if you spent less time beating yourself up and feeling like **** you would have time to clean it. Finances---go get some help. There are places out there that assist people with mental health issues with things like this. In fact your bank probably offers assistance and would help you set up auto pay for things that are important. The bank doesn't want you to fail anymore than you do. If they don't offer auto pay for normal bills close the account and find a bank that will. Contact the businesses that you pay monthly such as water and electricity and see if they have auto pay too. Why waste valuable brain power on monthly bills that need to be paid all year long. Focus on the ones that only come sporadically and make a small spreadsheet you can keep on the fridge as a reminder. It doesnt need amounts on it just business names and dates. PS I can email you one if you PM me your addy. Get rid of the cat (somewhere appropriate) and don't feel bad about it. You don't have the time or the energy for it right now. Buy a goldfish or something that requires minimal care and costs very little. Stop beating yourself up because you don't enjoy a cat that pees and poops on your stuff. You can't afford to replace it and it will be an issue when you have to get a new appointment. Right now I think you are overwhelmed and having people beat you up verbally is not helping. You need to downsize and figure out what is important. That is your basic needs, your sanity, and your children. Your job plays a part in that too. You have been fighting for you difficult child forever. Use the state and school resources available to employees and fight for yourself. They have to accomodate you if you have medical needs. I know I sound harsh but the point is this. YOU have to take care of YOU or you will never be able to take care of anything else. [/QUOTE]
