That is a very very full plate. You have given up yourself for everyone and everything else. And it IS overwhelming.
Change doesn't come quickly and it doesn't come easily......and it only comes if you make it happen. I've been in that position of being so overwhelmed by my schedule that I've needed to just STOP. Then I arrange the time for me and, lo and behold, I've actually felt lost because I didn't even know what to do!! I was so out of my element. My element was being in a frenzy all the time. Relaxing was literally out of my comfortzone!
I'd go right back to the craziness.....until it landed me in the hospital.....time and time and time again. My body would finally MAKE me shut down that cycle of insanity. I'm slowly learning to take more time for me even if it's little snippets of time. I'm feeling healthier.
I hope that you can stop. Even for a few minutes a day, and breathe. YOU are important and you deserve to be wrapped in self love.
gentle hugs
