Hatcher struggles with busy schedule

Teri Hatcher has admitted that she is struggling with the pressures of working on Desperate Housewives.

The actress - who plays Susan Mayer on the hit US show - complained that juggling her TV work alongside her responsibilities as a mother has become "too much".

"I'll work a 14-hour day, four days in a row and feel like I've been run over," she explained. "But I don't call it tired, I call it, 'Nothing is right, and I'm no good at my job and I'm horrible and no one will ever love me.'

"This is a serial problem for mums. We're trying to be everything all the time. The best mum, the best worker, the best wife, or the best dater. And it's too much."
