    Am I taking too much burden?
    I guess this is more like what I'm feeling right now instead question. I had skipped a good summer course offered by good university with discount because right now I want to focus on a land deal. This deal is very important and it needs money. Although there is no huge economic crunches but I thought my family will need this deal to complete.

    Now I'm focusing on this business but I'm feeling like I'm responsible for my own bad. I have been taking care of my family for few years and in these years I missed lot of things. Taking care means I'm handling all their needs, health issues, home etc. Money is not a issue, my parents are pretty good. They are loving, and caring but my grandmother, mom get sick often. So I always kind of worrying for them and this worry is making me helpless.

    You're right - this is a blog about your feelings and not a question. What is your question?


    And what does this mean: "I'm feeling like I'm responsible for my own bad."

    You appear to be grieving over someone who died years ago - https://www.askmehelpdesk.com/bereav...-a-737348.html. Did you resolve that issue?

    Such a young person to be balancing so many things at once. While you are to be commended for looking after family, don't forget your needs in the process. Good luck. :)

    Thanks tal. My cousin told me that these worries not going to end but I have to think myself. Family comes first for me. There are few important things I have to do, just like this land deal. Its my grandfather's wish so I have to make it. I kind of forgot myself, hope I see myself where I wish to be.

    Hire some skilled people to do some of the I assume, caregiving duties you are performing, especially if money is not an issue. Unless you are a trained caregiver or nurse, you will eventually exceed your skills and have to do so, anyhow.

    I'm not understanding. It sounds like money for the land deal is vitally important, but then it isn't, because your family is comfortable financially. Are you the only adult child at home, taking care of everything?

    Money is not an issue but the University course was at a discount. I see lots of discrepancies over the threads.

    And, yes, sometimes life is almost overwhelming.
