I feel like my house is constantly a fucking mess. My wife and I work 80 hours between us and we have a 2 year old and I feel like it's constantly a mess.

We do what we can and often spend a couple hours on a weekend tidying but it's a losing battle.

How do you cope/keep on top of things?

Yes. I have depression and I struggle everyday to keep things decent enough. Doing the dishes everyday is been my long battle. I am trying the strategy of putting a minimum time of doing the dishes everyday (five minutes). Usually it's enough for me to clean all the dishes in a day. Once a month, a person comes to help me clean. This makes me clean as well before, so I don't burden them.
