it sucks knowing you have anxiety and depression and when your parents are going through a difficult time together fighting and all that drama, just you in the middle not knowing what to do because you have little siblings to take care of too and you feel lost because you don’t want nothing bad to happen to you or anyone in your family.

Hi👋,It certainly is tough trying to be all things to all people in your life.

The first thing to do is to take care of yourself first so you can be there for other people. If you can take some "me time" out of the tricky home environment, you might find your stress levels are more manageable.

Caring for your younger siblings is important too. Good on you for keeping a look out for them.👍

All the best from me as you do this important work 🦘

Hi - this sounds like a really hard situation. Never forget - your parents own their relationship with each other - it's not your burden to fix it. Make sure you take care of yourself before helping anyone else.
