B2C, I am sorry that you feel like the forces are lining up against you. Remember that it is important for us, to save something for ourselves. When we give and give and leave nothing for us we are exhausting ourselves too to the point of depression. I am beginning to see this as being someting of a starting point.
Your boss was just out of line. I don't know how old your irl kid is but they have stages where they get demanding too. They are precious children are but they can drain us if we let them. We have to pace ourselves as parents. I would say mothers but don't want to offend any dads. Your DH well again he just wants to fix it or just wants you to be well, it is understandable but aint gonna happen in the short term. I guess he doesn't understand the pressure or stress he causes when he does this. Maybe try to explain it to him when you are calm so he understands you are doing all you can do to get well but it is a process that takes the time it takes.
Don't stress yourself out anymore than you can. You are doing the best job of juggling all these roles as you can. You should get an award. I think you are doing great so hang in there!!! No cliff jumping yet.
And Phillipa I am sorry you rec'd bad news. Be well. Be kind to yourself too.
