What do we say in English no. x9

Hello there,

What do we say or what's the expression we use if we are so overwhelmed by work that we can hardly cope and be on time with all assignments and tasks? Both colloquial and formal expressions would be appreciated.

Thanks

Perfect Strangerso overwhelmed by work that we can hardly cope and be on time with all assignments and tasks?
I feel like I'm drowning (in work).
I'm at my wit's end (trying to cope).
I feel like [the boss / the professor / ...] is breathing down my neck.

Humorously: There's no end to the treats! / No rest for the wicked!
