Stop allowing other people to inconvenience your life, your order, your schedule with what they have to do and what they need from you. Their priorities are theirs and yours is yours find a way to have balance if in fact you are supposed to be assisting them.

Example
I have my sons that have Williams Syndrome, and this requires and demands so much of me in order to have peace in my house as well as my mind. If my eyes are not on them at all times or they are not sleep, I can't do much because then they are doing things that are not appropriate; some they know better and just try me others they do not understand. I remember asking the doctors to test them for Autism because I see so many signs that point to it and if you understand it they are humans that will see something one time and it for whatever the reason is what they pick up and mimic when they are having a tick moment. This is my sons are for whatever reason they pick up a lot of the bad things they encounter. Ever since they encountered You Tube, they go on there and attempt to watch things they shouldn't from sexual content to violent content and no matter how many different ways I attempt to keep them from it they still manage to find a way to get to it.
I say all this to say. I have a schedule and a routine that helps me have them focused and situated so that I can get anything done from working to maintaining my home care and yes even being there to assist the others in my life that need my help for one reason or another. But helping others should not disturb your structure! I take this as a lesson because what I was able to learn because of my sons is that if they don't have that structure, they are causing all kinds of unnecessary chaos in my home for everyone. Autistic people like their order and they are a little more peaceful to deal with (do not miss the key word I just said which is "little")
Find a way to communicate to people that need your help that you can help how you can help and if that cannot work then they will need to figure something out as an alternative. Another very important thing and to me would be the first thing is to consult with God to see if you are the one that is supposed to be helping them in the first place.
