I'm the faggot who made the happy post a few months back about life turning around. Well now shit's crashing around me.
Stepdad keeps having strokes, Mom's stressed and too down on herself to improve her situation. I'm home taking care of them, trying to keep a wreck of a house clean and maintained, nature's taking over the rest of the property, I'm working two jobs and getting less than four hours of sleep a day, and trying to balance a new relationship with someone whom I'm not ready to unload my baggage on.
Maybe it's because I'm sleep deprived and over-caffeinated, but I'm stressed out to the point of a mental breakdown and feel like blowing my brains out.
I don't want the pity or words of encouragement, just tips for stress-management so I can stop feeling like this.
Edit: I've calmed down considerably since I posted this, and I'm looking into the suggestions. Thank you all, I hope to see some improvement from here and curb the instability.
