I am not sure what to do. For the past two months, perhaps even more, it is hard for me to keep up with life

My job, friendships, everything.
A lot has gone from bad to worse without me being able to do my best.
I wish other people carried their own weight so I can focus on my own.
Because I am struggling, I can't really keep up with life and all its happenings.
I am tired, tired of problems, of my health, of my mental health.
Everything tires me.

When was the last time you did a good vacation?

Miram · 31-35, F

@mindless not a vacation but I was supposed to take four days off, ended up being 2 and I spent them grieving and trying to deal with my messy feelings.

Who are you though? I don't remember if we talked before.

mindless · M

@Miram perhaps you should see if you can get more than just 2 days and get those feelings sorted and healed...

Travelling is good for the soul ;)

I'm sorry, Mimi. I will do better. I still haven't given up, as I have volunteer work on Tuesday like you asked me to do. I scheduled that a few days ago. And I will continue carrying my weight from there.

Miram · 31-35, F

@SinlessOnslaught Yeah, It should be your priority to take care the best you can

SinlessOnslaught · M

@Miram I find it hard to have the motivation. But I will do it.

I’d suggest a sick day or two get your health better put things in order. I got an mri was a whole thing. Definitely take care of yourself fatigue often has an underlying cause.

You need to receive too from the world, receive rest, care, quiet, space, whatever it is that you need.

Miram · 31-35, F

@Boeing love you

I can relate to this.
It is ok to be selfish, to work on yourself because if you are not ok how can you help anyone else to be ok?
Take a break and take stock. Look at what needs changing and make small steps towards it.
Indulge yourself, do things that warm your heart.

Sending you love xx

Miram · 31-35, F

@BabyLonia Love you and I am grateful whenever I see you.

I will try to sort out this mess. It will take long while because of the nature of my work and what potentially happens when I create space for myself instead :/ but this can't go on forever and it's obvious I am heading towards total collapse if I don't fix my needs too.

BabyLonia · F

@Miram i think one of the hardest things is accepting that it is ok to fall apart. This is life. What i know about you is you have seen the hardest of times and survived it. You will survive this too.
Love you too M, sending you love and strength.

Miram · 31-35, F

@BabyLonia Same for you. We both seen the hardest times and do our best for our loved ones. We have to do what we have to do.

AbsolutelyFabulous · F

You always take on so much, you need to prioritize yourself

Miram · 31-35, F

@AbsolutelyFabulous

I wish I can stop caring so it doesn't get in the way of taking care of myself. I wish I could just switch it off. Play on cool mode.
