My life is hectic between working full-time, running a home with no support, 5 kids, 2 adult ones at home with me that I still do everything for, recently diagnosed 6yr old with type 1 diabetes, taking kids to sports, the only time I get a break is when I'm sleeping, or self sabotaging myself due to not being able to handle the busy demands on life

Hello Dear Amz,
A very warm and caring welcome to the forums,
The description of you life sounds very busy, I’m sorry you can’t seem to get some you time….I could only imagine how hard that would be…
Taking time out each day for yourself is very important, even finding half an hour to just sit outside and being mindful of your surroundings can help in more ways then we can ever think….
Are your adult children able to help you a bit with their younger siblings?…We don’t know their ages (the adult ones)… I’m thinking if they are working or even if they are not working, setting out some type of helping around the home and with the younger children might need to be talked out by you all….Is it possible that you can all sit down together, and talk about how you’re doing it hard without any help from them?…maybe they don’t know how hard it’s been for you without there support…
Try hard to take care of you dear Amz, we are all here to help you when we can…please talk here anytime you feel up to it…
My kindest thoughts and care dear Amz,
Grandy..
