I can so relate, down to being up late at night to get some peace to let things sort in my head. My people need my attention, to be driven hither and yon, I have tasks to complete, even the dog needs to be tended to when I walk in the door. It's draining, and I'm already drained.

I used to occasionally have time after a session to sit at the coffee shop on the corner long enough to drink a cup of coffee alone, or I could pull into the driveway and go for a walk before I even set foot into the house. That helped.

And there have been a couple times when I walked into the house, said, "I love you but I can't right now," and given myself 20 minutes to recover. It's ok to do that if you really really need it so you can be more fully present once you've had that time alone.
