Ford F-150 Fuse Problem

My brake lights, turn signals, and 4 way flashers dont work. I checked the fuses and found the fuse that controls those 3 things was blown. i replaced it and everything worked until i pressed on the breaks and it blew the fuse again. what would cause this to happen?

That indicates you have a short somewhere in the brake light circuit and you will have to start disconnecting lights and components until it stops blowing fuses to isolate the short.
