I'm feeling so overwhelmed at the minute, it seems like I can't catch a break. My family are constantly being negative towards me and I keep to myself then are angry when I don't want to spend time with them. I feel so alone.People are asking way too much of me and I keep saying yes, even though I know I shouldn't but I don't want to offend anyone or look bad. It's consuming me and I don't know what to do.
