I can't seem to get enough sleep. Yesterday, I slept all day long. I would open my eyes for a few minutes, and would try to watch tv, and before I knew it, I had fallen asleep again. Same thing today. I haven't got any energy to do anything anymore. I need to get all the things together for donations, but I just can't get motivated enough to do it. I need to really clean my house better, like it used to be, I never ever would have let my house get to this stage of disarray. Before, I was neat to the point of being obsessive about it, vacuuming 3 times a day. Now, I'm ashamed that this is even my house. I know that my physical problems have gotten much worse over the years, and my kids are making a much bigger mess than when they were little. It was much easier to clean up after them then. But, still, I just can't stand it, and I want to change it. I wish I could afford a housekeeper. Or maybe just send the kids away just kidding (mostly, they have some really great boarding schools). They are at that age where they are really trying every bit of my last nerve, patience and everything else they can try. It's been a difficult couple of years. And I'm at a loss as a mother. I feel like a failure. Maybe going to one of those schools would be the best thing, because I don't know what else to do to help them. And I don't want them to end up going down the wrong road. I'd rather have some kind of intervention now, even if they hate me for it. If it saves them, It would be worth it.

Hello, woundedsoul. Have you sought professional help for what you are dealing with?

I wish you well.

From what I understand children are incredibly tiring to care for day after day, even if you love them. I have enough trouble as it is just handling work, study, eating good food, and personal projects during the down periods, so I imagine it's hard to get up knowing that it's just going to be wild.

I used to sleep all the time, too. Only thing I could recommend is more water and better food for a little energy boost to hopefully keep you up until nighttime.

For me my biggest symptoms are no energy, no motivation, and sleep sleep sleep

I was going to a therapist for a while, and when my friend moved, I really seemed to fall into this terrible slump that I can't seem to pull myself out of. Like I said, I can't seem to even find the energy to leave the house to go and see my therapist, which is problematic. And, my neurologist had put me on elevil to stop me from being up all night long, and it had been working until about 3 weeks ago, and all of a sudden, I started waking up again in the middle of the night and staying up. No sleep again. Yeah.
