@aumy20

it sounds like you're in a really tough situation and carrying a lot on your shoulders. I hear your frustration and exhaustion, and it's totally understandable. Dealing with the household chores while everyone else is dealing with their own challenges, all while wanting to be supportive, is incredibly difficult.

It's awesome that you're communicating openly with your boyfriend about your feelings. Even though you can't directly address the situation with his parents, maybe there are other ways you can find some relief. Could you try delegating small tasks to your boyfriend (if he's well enough to of course), even something light like taking out the trash?
