So I’m sure this has been asked before, but I am feeling so burnt out my medspouse life. I work a pretty intensive remote job, but earn about half of my attending partner. For insurance and tax reasons it makes more sense for me to keep working. And my job is getting really hard over the past year, mainly because of politics and layoffs (we have to do more work for the same pay)
Meanwhile, I’ve started doing Everything at our house. I cook, I shop for groceries, I clean up, I usually do the laundry, I deal with all the yard work, calling contractors, dealing with repair men. Because I work from home, my spouse just expects me to deal with it. I’ve asked for more support but other than a promise of “I’ll do more when I’m less busy”, it never happens (because they are never less busy).
I knew this wasn’t going to be easy, but I am so burnt out from working all day everyday that I am at my wits end. Any tips? Sorry for the rant.
