I go to school at a major university. I live in a 3 bdrm apt with my fiance, with whom I have a 2 year old with. I'm going to school to be a school teacher, but I can't BREATHE! I'm suffocating and just simply overwhelmed. My fiance consistantly calls me lazy despite the fact that I work, go to school on Tues and Thurs from 8am - 4pm (thats five classes back to back NO BREAK inbetween any of them) , and take care of our two year old son. Instead of coloring and playing with my son, my fiance would rather me clean house and have a meal prepared by the time he gets home (ranging anywhere from 4:30pm to 7pm - depending on what time he gets home). He's honestly a good man, but I'm hurt by his words and his lack of understanding. I need perspective and I need to know what I can do to cope with the tsunami of work that is drowning me.
I know teachers have an extremely high workload with little payoff and I'm afraid I'm not up for the job, though I love the profession.
