What's Bothering You?

i screwed up on a test and now i have a low C in math, and i have a C+ in another class. i still have assignments that still need to be graded so hopefully my grade will go up because of that unless i screwed up on those too. sometimes i wonder if college was the right choice for me but then again i can’t really do anything without a degree. i know i should try harder but i am just so TIRED everyday, i wish i didn’t have to do all these core classes before doing anything with my major because that’s what’s the most tiresome.
 
I find it hard to be honest with others when I know their busy, and they have stuff going on. Like I get this person has a life, but I'm starting to get really tired of just getting on response a day, and nothing.

Sure when they do respond it's fine and we talk for one response. I haven't been honest about how one response a day is starting to drag me down. Esspecially when I see they've looked at my stuff and haven't said anything.

Am I being selfish and needy for thinking this way? I don't know anymore. They're busy, I get it. But I don't know. It's starting to hurt me more then it should.

They say honestly is the best medicine. But it feels more like a drug waiting to take effect.

I walked into my living room this morning and my 10-week-old white kitten had blood on his chest.

He was a good boy and let me find the wound, check for swelling, and stayed still while I got him cleaned up.

The wound itself is very minor - it looks like an accident that occurred while play fighting with his brother. He appears absolutely fine, happy and purring and there is no change in either of the boys behaviour towards each other (in the 10hrs I've been observing them), so I'm just watching it for signs of infection. But god that was a scary sight to come downstairs to. Glad I had no plans today so I could stay home and keep an eye on them.
 
I've been congested as hell for the last few days, and I almost got frostbite on Halloween because it was so damn cold. I had a hat and gloves but they hardly did anything. I'm also very hoarse because I was performing in my school's haunted house and had to scream at people for six hours...

It's been a fun week :D
 
There’s been this growing sadness that’s been there for awhile. Trying to push it back and ignore it but it’s still there because you’re not here anymore. Halloween came and went but it wasn’t the same. In all the years we have been volunteering at the church’s festival you were always there.
We had a celebration of life for you today. So many people came to say goodbye. So many people you have helped. You were an amazing kind, generous person and we all miss you . I will always be forever thankful and grateful for your friendship. I appreciate you so much. I miss you 😢.
 
I'm fine now, but my morning was absolute ****. I was late for work again, because I thought my shift was at 10 and I fell back asleep. My dad got mad at me for something and I was stressed about how my manager would react to me being late, which caused me to burst into tears and have a panic attack while I was getting ready. I was tired, frustrated, and distressed. I didn't want to work, I wanted to sleep and relax (since today was supposed to be my day off, but guess who was asked to do an extra shift). I can't handle pressure and bad situations at all and I hate it.

While my dad was driving me to work, he told me to "stop crying and man up", which didn't sit right with me. I was rightfully upset.

Thankfully, my manager was understanding and wasn't mad that I was late. She had also talked to the coworker that was bothering me, and she was pretty nice to me in turn. Still, I could've had a better start to my day. I was tired and hungry (having to skip breakfast and coffee), meaning I wasn't at my best during the first part of my shift.

And to top it all off, my headaches were absolutely killing me today. It still is. I got a prescription that should help alleviate them, but I can't go to the pharmacy because of work, and my day off isn't till Tuesday. **** me, I guess.

The phrase "man up" genuinely makes my blood boil a little bit, I'm so sorry you're dealing with this.

I've been a bit sick since yesterday, nothing major but definitely enough to annoy me.

Oh no that's so scary 😢 I had a similar experience the other day...
My young cat must've been out early in the morning and when I got up to get ready for work I noticed she had a massive cut on the outside of her ear. It looked fresh and really bad. I didn't know what to do as I needed to get to work, so I just managed to clean it.

I think she must be getting attacked by another cat as she came home with two minor cuts on the bridge of her nose a couple weeks ago. I wasn't concerned about that, but when I saw the cut on her ear I freaked out (almost to the point of a panic attack lmao). She still seems really happy though; she's not hiding, she's still very vocal, socializing with the puppies...so I'm glad she's okay

On another note, the ex-tenants of this house seriously must've not known how to clean. The house isn't terribly filthy, but they definitely could've put some more effort into cleaning the house before we moved in!
 
I swear, everytime we "fall back" I end up waking up an hour early or sleep like crap anyway. I end up feeling robbed.
I think a coworker quit because I told someone else he looks like Seth Rogan. That didn't take much.
A couple of weeks ago a driver stopped to yell to one of my customers: "You look just like Bill Gates!" and the guy had a good laugh about it. Some people just don't find it as funny as others, I suppose.
 
I think my mental health has hit its lowest point since last year when my mom died. Basically, I'm having an existential crisis and questioning the point of life, with the stress of work and my future piled on top of me.

Last night, I got into a big argument with my dad when I was trying to confide to him ("Talk to us when you have problems, we don't want you bottling up your emotions!" 🙃), and I cried for nearly two hours straight.

Trying to hold my tears in at work is so ****ing hard. I had a headache that was hurting so much, I was shaking and on the verge of tears. And with my mental toll, I certainly wasn't feeling any better. I was already crying by the time I was walking back home for lunch, and I broke down when I got home. I hate everything.

I'm just so tired. Tired of being told my life is perfect and I have nothing to complain about. Tired of being exhausted from a **** job with a **** pay. Tired of being mentally ill. When am I gonna catch a break?

This is only a fraction of what's on my mind, but I can't be bothered to type more.
