Had a breakdown in the driveway this morning

Everything just hit me at once. Work has been insane, my kids were fighting before school, and I just sat in my car for 15 minutes and cried. This is my second time in like a month. I love my family but I feel like I'm barely keeping my head above water. I think I might need to talk to my doctor about this instead of trying to power through it like I always do.

I had a similar moment last month in my car before heading into work. Just sat there for 10 minutes. The insane work + kid chaos combo is brutal.

Hey man I've been there. The driveway breakdowns are real. Sometimes everything just needs to come out at once. You're not alone in this.

Hang in there. The work stuff passes, the kids chill out eventually. One morning doesn't define you as a dad. Take care of yourself today.
