When you're faced with a highly challenging situation sometimes it all gets too much. That is indeed the nature of a challenge. Now is the time to become really strong and focused and to work on yourself. Don't give in to stress and depression but use the experience to become stronger and wiser.
Life has given you this problem or challenge for a purpose. Indeed, if you are religious you may see it in a more spiritual light. And if you are not religious but have a spiritual outlook that will help profoundly. Otherwise, just be philosophical as there is so much we don't understand. The main thing is to do whatever is best for you, and throughout the time when you are challenged and all your inner resources are being tested to the limit, concentrate on looking after yourself, and try to enjoy life and all the good things it has to offer.
Finally, don't forget - the bad stuff doesn't go on forever!

Love and caring - appreciation
Loving and caring for each other is something that really matters in this life. It is so easy to take our nearest and dearest for granted and often many of us do. It is such an easy trap to fall into to wander around semi conscious, just getting on with what we do and, sadly, not fully appreciating the beautiful things around us and the beautiful people in our lives.
Ironically, it is when hard times hit us, and misfortune, adversity or an extremely stressful ongoing situation seem to envelop us that we really need each other to turn to. That is when, if you have a kind supportive spouse, relative or friend that you find comfort and solace in each other. It is when you really know who your friends are and who really are not part of your world.
When demanding times come around it is time to appreciate the things that really matter. Only you will know what those are and you will know when life throws a difficult challenge. Suddenly a lot of things don't matter any more or if they do they come after the most important thing - being fully conscious of each moment of life and truly appreciating the gifts that this consciousness brings.
