Dear Tessa:

Your writing is entertaining: your difficulties are not, but your telling is. Witty, humorous, delightful to read. When work is slow, and there is nothing for you to do, I see nothing wrong with you watching Netflix from your desk.

I don’t know the answers to your question, but reads to me that your life is stressful, has been so and will be so for a while. Take it one day at a time, expect it, take good care of yourself one moment, one hour, one day at a time. Do your best for yourself, now and every day. Relax best you can, pay attention, accept the realities of your life.

Make thoughtful choices, no choice is too small to not be thoughtful about it.
