The Duggar family used to have it all - fame, popularity, and a steady income from their TLC reality show "19 Kids And Counting."

However, a lot has changed for the Duggars ever since the Josh Duggar scandal broke, and the family's matriarch, Michelle Duggar is allegedly breaking under pressure, according to rumors.

"It was 1:00 AM in the morning as I stood folding laundry with tears streaming down my cheeks," Michelle Duggar wrote in an entry in their family website.

"Feelings of being overwhelmed flooded my mind. I cried aloud, 'LORD I NEED YOUR HELP, I can't do it all! I feel so inadequate! Diapers, dishes, laundry, meals, cleanup, school lessons, baths, hugs, kisses, correction...' My list seemed to go on and on."

This entry has caused some to speculate that the weight of the Josh Duggar scandal and its after effects may have been too much for Jim Bob Duggar's wife.

Some were surprised by Michelle Duggar's bold decision to post such breakdown confession a few months after the Josh Duggar scandal has ignited criticisms directed not only towards her and her husband, but also towards their church leaders.

"For her to open up in such a candid manner, Michelle must be having a very difficult time in the aftermath of such a scandalous year," Examiner wrote.

Michelle Duggar has previously admitted that her eldest son's molestation of five minors, including some of her daughters, has left her devastated.

"As parents, we felt, 'We're failures,'" Michelle Duggar told FOX's Megyn Kelly in an interview a few weeks after the Josh Duggar scandal first broke, as quoted by In Touch Weekly.

"We tried to raise our kids to do what's right - to know what's right. And yet one of our children made really bad choices. I think, as parents, we were devastated."
