I need to get it off my chest.

Being at home is draining the life out of me. I'm also behind on my own work. I'm currently studying at home and things aren't easy. There are the expected chores since I stay at home, but then there's the work I help my mom with. It involves marking about 200 papers and other things.

Lately the house has been neglected but I explained to her that it's only for now. I STILL cook and clean, but I'm required to be busy with schoolwork 8 hours a day. I feel like they don't really understand that just because I'm at home doesn't mean I'm just doing nothing. Also since the workload is getting heavier things haven't been on top and so has mother's mood. She called me ungrateful even when I slept at 2 am marking her class papers. I was fuming but since she pays for my tuition, I didn't say anything. It lowkey feels insane though. The things she says are insane. I'm currently suffering from burnout with university stuff and this kind of energy is not helpful.
