But, do you have to take over your mother's life? I understand stepping in and helping family keep going - but you do deserve to live your own life and pursue your dreams and goals.

Any chance someone else can step in and take over some of the chores/responsibilities?

Knowing depression myself, I also know that there are times when I have to say "No" and let others figure out how to take care of the needs of others. You are out of steam, and you need to take a break and take care of our own needs.

I wish you the best.
