Family Issues Support Group
Family issues is a huge range that go from minor conflict to major misbehaviour and even abuse on the part of individual members of the family occur. Whether you feel you are in a dysfunctional family or you're dealing with a very specific issue, this is the place to talk about it and find others who might be going through the same thing.
I can't keep butting everyone needs before mine. My family seems to think I'm a never ending bank account I'm an endless babysitting service and
that my life purpose in life is to serve them... l think I'm ready to call it quits permanently just no longer exist and let them fiend for themselves. My life right now is just depressing and not worth hanging around for more pain and anxiety. please tell me why I should hang around for more pain and unhappiness. If I reach out and say I'm really exhausted and tired they tell me how tired they are too. But my tired is truly exhaustion I am drained taking care of grandchildren a and working 40hrs a week to pay their bills. I would be much better off just not existing and letting everyone one else take care of themselves and their own kids instead of dumping it all on me. Tell me if there's a better solution.

Learning to be assertive in your life and putting your own needs first can help you to accomplish having your needs met and then when you are able or would like to do something nice for one of your family members it won't feel like a burden... Big hug ....xo
When i was going through with it with my family, i began making a lot of appointments with doctors, specialist, bankers, lawyers..etc... anything that didn't incur an out of pocket expense... Not only did i get good care and i handled my business, i slowly stole all my "me" time back. And of course... I had to go shopping or go out to eat after my appointments :)
If you need help (painting something, fixing something, ask for help, if it's not given, pay someone to fix it. Then when they ask for money tell them that you're still paying off that dept.
As for babysitting, truly it's awesome for you to do as much as you can, but also take time for yourself.
