Feeling emotionally overwhelmed by responsibilities often occurs when demands exceed emotional capacity. Balancing work, family, and personal expectations can gradually drain mental energy. When responsibilities pile up without enough rest or support, even small tasks may feel heavy. Emotional overwhelm is a signal that your mind needs relief, not a sign of failure. Breaking responsibilities into manageable steps, setting realistic expectations, and asking for help can reduce pressure. Prioritising rest and emotional expression is essential for recovery. Professional support can help you develop coping strategies and regain emotional balance.
