How about first finding out exactly how much time is being spent at work. That way you can make a conscious effort to gain a bit more balance.
Use a diary for a week whereby you write exactly how many hours you work a week, how many hours you spend with family/friends, doing chores, exercising, reading, relaxing (just break it all down to match your life). Then transfer these hours into overall percentages.
That way you can see exactly how much time is being spent on your work and home. Just carrying out the task is sometimes enough to realise that more effort might be needed in certain areas of your life.
Hope this helps.

Life is full of choices. If your priority is based on the results you obtain from your work and you decide to coordinate with that reality than you will have to accept the consequences that other important factors will be disrupted. At least until they are no longer important and then try to maintain other aspects in a way so as to not be adversely effected.

You can set a goal. You can tell yourself that the overtime isn't going to last forever so that gives you a physical goal to look at. Makes it not so overwhelming. You can tell yourself that you are making extra money to put towards a bill or something fun. Tell yourself it's not going to last forever.

go for quality rather than quantity. When you do get to spend some time with those you care about ( including yourself) make the most of that time, do things that will really be remembered or make a difference.
