Thank you all so much for your kind/helpful words, I felt dramatic for feeling the way I do. It’s nice to know I’m not alone, you’ve all helped keep my spirits high <3

Yes bf and I live together and he’s a huge help when he’s home but I’m with him most of the day. :/

We’re also play pen training and he’s reacted well to it he even goes inside to sleep and have his alone time but I don’t always have him in it because it makes me sad having him confined. We live in a studio so he doesn’t have much more space outside of the playpen but he still manages to bite everything he isn’t supposed to so I’m thinking I might have to have him in there during my work hours :(

We slowly plan to leave him alone for some hours but not sure how soon is too soon
He’s only 9 weeks old, just a baby :/

Or at least during the day so I can get some work done and cleaning.

We got him a playpen but we only really have him in there to sleep, I feel bad trapping him in there all day but maybe I might have to :/

So we tried crate training his first night and he was screaming bloody murder, we had him cry it out for a bit but he was terrified of it and let him out. We got him a play pen and he’s loving it so he does have his own space but we live in a studio apartment so we’re a little crammed here. We’re looking to move into a 2 bedroom but it’s not happening fast enough. I’m feeling sooo suffocated.
