Am I doing to much?
Answer:
for 17 you sound like an overachiever but most people your age barely make it through school slow down you have your whole life ahead of you your brother can do his own laundry and the older family memebers can take turns with the household duties i was like you doing a lot of activities and just ended up making myself sick the caffine pills are not healthy to me you need a vacation chill go out with your friends go see a movie just relax but more power to you
bottom line is you have to follow your heart
First of all i think its great you a part of so many different things...it helps when you are making career choices and such. But i do think maybe you are taking on alittle to much upon yourself. Why do you have to do your brothers laundry and why do you have to cook dinner for everyone everynight? You really should consider making more time for yourself and try to have a better time for doing your homework. If your exhausted all this work your doing is for nothing. You need more sleep especially on schoolnights. Good Luck...try asking others to help out more.
What? u are to young and you need to have some fun like go out with friends. And you are awsome, I don't know how to cook.
You are doing way to much. What i would do is Ask your family to help you. It sounds like they aren't contributing anything to the fact that you want to be successful. i would ask them to start making dinner ect. and if they don't i just wouldn't do and i would get right to my homework. Also to make you not so stresed hang out with your friends. If you still feel crammed maybe quit a club or something but i think just skipping out on the house work would buy you lots of time to do homework and get some sleep.
In my opinion, you need 8 hours of sleep. I admire you, but if you keep going at this rate your are going to be burned out by the time you are 20. You don't have to live all of your life at one time. Bless you. Only you can decide if you can keep going at this pace. Are you happy and pleasant. Or grumpy and tired all the time.
Good for you Good Luck :)
honestly yes you are doing too much. you are only 17. you need some time for yourself. and you need to relax try and take some time off. there is nothing wrong with working but doing too much work is a problem because you need sleep and some free time to do watever. it can also affect your health mentally and phyiscally. you are doing too much. slow down.
you seem like a good kid but where are your folks? this is way to much for someone your age to have to take on.i think i'd enlist others in the household to help.have your older bro do his own laundry to start with. you gonna get burned out real fast if you don't slow down some.stay with the things you really love doing and let some go for a while.you don't have to say yes to everything
edit- i just read your edit, you are in a bad situation. really. do you have extended family near by? can they help? if it is truely this bad maybe you could move in with relatives.
yes u are! go to a real school meet friends..go do things you like doing not things u feel u have to do. do what u want for yourself not other people, stop doing so many chores at home..if they get mad so what..what r they gonna do to u hit you?ur old enough..tell ur parents to let ur older brother do it because ur too busy doing other things,go out w/ur friends & don't be home all the time thats why ur stressed out!!
Good Luck
Yes, you are! You need to remember to take time and relax once in awhile, like your skiing trip. I would tell your parents that everyone (except for the youngest members of your family) needs to take a turn making dinner, and then refuse to make dinner unless it's your night. I would also make your older brother do his own laundry or take turns with you doing laundry. How old are your younger siblings? Any child 2 and up can help pick up. They younger they are though, they more "help" they need. I would also suggest to your parents that they make a rule that everyone needs to pick up after themselves, they get it out, they put it away. Don't forget to slow down, or you will burn out!
