I understand your situation. I took extended sick leave for 12 weeks and then with my Pdocs advice quit perm. Our family had to readjust our budget. It wasn't easy at first, but we managed. This was a repeat attempt at going back to work. My pdoc said no more working for me. It all became too much for me. If you think that you are slowly losing control of your situation it may be better to start with sick leave and see how you feel then. (You do not have to legally state anything more than you are sick and get a docs note) It is better than making everyone angry and stressing yourself out because you can't keep up right now. It is OK to admit you need a break. Since I have not had the added pressure of a job outside the home, I have become stable and life is much more enjoyable for me. Wishing you all of the best!
