I feel very tired too. I also come from a dysfunctional family and have low self esteem. I've been underemployed/unemployed for a long time (also self employed but not earning much that way) and that is very demoralizing, as well as making it very hard to eke by. My daughter has serious emotional issues; she's back in a partial hospitalization program for the fourth time in two years. I feel like every time I start making some progress, she has a setback and I have to put everything on hold again. There are many days that I just want to run away from home! I'm doing okay with the eating part but I haven't been getting as much exercise lately, since she was suspended from school and home all the time for a month.

Thanks. I hope things get better for you, too.
