I am confused... my Mom is living with me. She's right down stairs - I can help her if she needs anything, literally in seconds. I am SO relieved we live together. But for some reason, I am SO emotional, stressed, overwhelmed, exhausted, busy.
I thought I would be happy, instead I am depressed and stressed and I cry a lot. I don't understand it.
I know from experience to do things for me so I can be strong and be there for her, but I have too much to do. Find new doctors, unpack a two-story house, work on websites, try and keep up at work, potty train a new puppy, try and get some sleep, go see my own doctors for my back, taming my frustrations so I don't show them to my Mom, stop raising my voice because I'm so stressed, etc., etc.
If you see me - give me a hug. I am not hardly talking or responding to anyone, or reaching out to friends.
I love my Mom so much.
