I had two breakdowns in 2014 and haven't been able to work for almost two years. I was a teacher. My husband and I moved into a small trailer that is easier to keep up. I have finally gotten to the point where I can keep up with the daily household chores- a load of laundry every day, dishes right after a meal, make the bed as soon as I'm out of it (less likely to get back into it) and a shower at least every other day. I'm also cooking again, a big accomplishment! If I Can do these things every day, I am able to keep the self-loathing at bay. I tick off a list in my mind throughout the day of the tasks I've accomplished. Makes me feel productive and like I'm pulling my weight.
