Tiff, hun, maybe you just need to cut back your working hours. I was over tired and over stressed for a long time, and my warning flag came when I realised I had cried every day for at least a fortnight (and probably longer) and it was time to do something about it. It seemed impossible to cut down on my hours, but when I actually had the conversation with my employer it all worked out ok. I'm now only working 4 hours a day, and I don't feel constantly emotionally overwhelmed all the time. There is nothing that you do that someone else couldn't be doing while you go home to have a nap in the afternoon!!
Your health and wellbeing is number 1, if you keep running yourself ragged you are risking antenatal depression which predisposes you towards postnatal depression - It's Just not worth it!!!!
