just wondering

let me ask you something. is it fair that her darkness is consuming us all?
at what point does your obligation to family end and the obligation to yourself begin?
on a scale of 1 to 10, how awful am i for even thinking this?

I think at some point, you DO have to look out for yourself if only so that you can be able to help your family. As humans, we all have our limits. The key is knowing when we've reached our limit and when to break free to "restore" your limits. You're not horrible for thinking that way at all, it's only natural. It's not saying that you don't love your family or don't care, it's saying that you've lost the energy, that you've maxed out your ability to cope with the situation and need to find refuge in order to be able to continue dealing with it before it eats you raw. Perhaps a break is in order for you? Sounds right to me.
