Problems with Mother in law
Mother in law video calls twice a day and wants to know every single details in our life. From breakfast to dinner, everything we ate, everything we did and everywhere we went. Literally everything, every single day. It's becoming a problem between my husband and me. He doesn't see it as an issue as they are not physically here but for me it's as good as we all live together. My brother n law is also living with us from past 2 years. Not moving out siting corona. My in laws were also living with us for 6 months as they were "stuck" due to lock down! She is openly partial with the younger son and needs the elder only to get the things done. She behaves indifferently to me as well. Always pampering the younger one. Btw he is turning 30 in 2 months. With all this,and the work from home situation, I became lonely in my own home, went into depression and on medications now. What do I do to get out of this? My husband is also under severe stress as he doesn't want to upset his mom. Pls help.

Hi... Solution is very simple but in India, it is really hard to make people come to simple solutions.
You all need Family Therapy. Since everyone won't be willing to start so you and your husband at least can start taking Counselling Sessions.
It helps like anything. You not only get a confidential, comfortable, and controlled environment/space to vent out your pent-up issues but also you get to find your own solutions to your problems.
This pandemic has caused an unprecedented situation - socially, economically, clinically, emotionally, career wise, life wise. But we can deal with it if we get little support from someone who knows how to deal with such cases. Someone who is trained, who is unbiased, and who is neutral. Someone who is not part of your social circle.
Next Steps
Consult a Psychologist and start taking Counselling Sessions.
