I am 32 years old and recently became a father to a small baby. This should be a happy time in my life, but honestly I am feeling very low.

My father is an alcoholic for many years. From childhood I was hoping he will change, but still the same situation continues. Now it is even more stressful because I have my own family and responsibilities.

I feel stuck in between. I want to take care of my father as a son, but at the same time I want to give a better life to my child. Managing both is becoming very difficult for me mentally.

Some days I feel angry, some days I feel tired and blank. Sometimes I even feel guilty for thinking like this.

Is anyone else going through similar situation? How are you handling this without affecting your own family?
