    Hi all,

    I not sure if this is the right place or if its even a PI but ill rant away anyway.

    I am trying so hard to keep everybody happy. My family, my bosses, friends.

    I have alot of stuff going on in my family life that i cant really go in to to cause the OH reads boards and can put 1 & 1 together. The OH's mother is just home from hospital after some serious stuff going on. Herself and the rest of the her family are ment to be taking care of her mother as 24hr care is required. But other family members just dont seem to give a fook which means my wife, child and me have to stay in.
    Me and herself are fighting all the time because im pissed off her family wont do sh*t because "they are busy shopping" or "blah blah".
    What about our family??? Our time out, away from all this.

    My bosses seem to think that i can do everything and have it done yesterday. Im only one man with two hands!! I know its a resession and all but im just dont have the have it in me to keep this up.

    And to top it all off my acne is back with a bang:-(

    Sorry moan over but i had to get it off my chest!

    i wouldnt rely on family as so far they have been no help. you can be frustrated all you want, but it doesnt look like they will change. is there professional care or home help that can be brought in?? im sure not all families are willing to look after their elders and there has to be something out there. sounds like your OH is having a hard time, so try not to make the situation anymore difficult, she has less control over you about her family.

    job wise, do you make a plan and tasks for each day/week, what can realistic achieved?? if your boss is giving you a hard time, just show this plan to them..say my plan is to achieve such and such by this time and see if its achieved. if the goal is not achieved by then, why not?? do you need to bring in extra help on the project? you can only do your best. work is just to get money to get by with life, to enjoy life. maybe you dont enjoy what you do?

    talk it with a professional. i found everything in my life was totally out of control. i never would have spoken to a professional as i didnt think i was crazy. but i find its been one of the best things i could have done. its like a personal life planner. they can help you tackle each of these areas. then naturally you will build up confidence, have a routine and feel better and your life will start to fall into place more. thing will become easier. i found simple things like cooking had become a huge task and now i make note to do it everyday...
