I feel like a failure as a mother. I have schitzoaffective disorder, Bipolar type and I have suffered for years, put the kids through it, until I finally got help.

My life now...I work, online school, 2 kids in school 1 not.

Ages 5, 3, 2

I work night shift and I seem to run errands all day with the kids and homework. Their grandparents watch them most of the time and do most of the mother duties it seems like...it bothers me and I feel like it's a burden to put my kids on others. I try so hard and try everything I can. I get severe anxiety and I can't handle all 3 kids at once very well at all...

I feel like I'm not doing good enough.

5 3 and 2. My 2 yr old gets into everything. My homework is not too bad...yet.

I'm just more worried about our structure and routine as a family

Bravo. You are doing great. The kids will be just fine. They will adapt and be happy to have your parents. My parents didn't babysit too much.
