What's Bothering You?

I’m trying to slowly cut off contact with one of my friends. They’re nice, it’s just that we’re not on the same page. It just hurts and they seem unbothered with the whole ordeal. I hate to be blunt with them but it’s for the best.
 
I’m stuck in a constant state of waking up tired, working all day while tired, coming home tired, going to bed and not feeling tired at all, unable to sleep until late...

Rinse and repeat ugh.

Can I opt out of being an adult right now? 😔 I hate having to email my old employer it makes me so uncomfy but there was a mix up with my tax papers. Luckily it’s resolved but oof. Emailing her just fills me nerves 😅

55-60 hour work weeks are killing me. i have to get out of food service. **** this place. either need to go to a local cafe part time or find a job in retail or something.
 
I'm so tired of comparing myself to others, I'm so tired of doing the best I can at something I love only to be graded "subpar" compared to everyone else, I'm so sick and tired of being stupid and dumb all the time, I'm just tired and I feel like nothing good comes my way no matter how much effort I put in. What's worse is that I get zero comments on how to improve so I dont know what part of me is wrong, I just end up feeling **** and feeling like anything I do is wrong and I can't amount to anything successful. **** I hate myself so much I'm so tired I need a ****ing break.
 
i deleted social media around a month ago and it's really helped me with my mental health (it was really bad before i deleted it) but now im getting bad again because like none of my friends even bother to reach out to me?? i have to always reach out to them .... and one of my friends only texts me when she needs answers for physics work and then she forgets i exist until the next assignment is due :/
only about 2 or 3 of my friends reached out to me when i first deleted my socials asking if i was okay but then i answered and they took forever to respond to me??? like why ask if you dont even care that much :"( someone i even thought was a super close friend hasnt talked to me since i deleted and she said she misses me then i replied "i miss you too!!!" but didnt even say anything after that???
i feel like quarantine has made me lose a bunch of people who i thought were my friends but now theyre just people i occasionally talk to. idk what im gonna do if we do end up going back to school for my senior year, like who am i gonna talk to LMAO
i feel like the few online friends i have care more about me than people who actually know me irl and it makes me so upset. the only people who really care about me are my boyfriend and my best friend, even though we've only been recently talking more & more each day ik she genuinely cares abt me and my wellbeing <33 and im extremely grateful for my bf because hes always there for me even tho im super difficult lol and i cry a lot to him about how much i miss him but now i have something new to cry to him about now <//3
either i really need new friends or i just stick with the two real friends i have right now :"(
 

Hey, friend. I just wanted to say that I’m sorry you’re feeling this way and I can relate a lot. I‘ve compared myself a lot with others growing up and I still do sometimes. I’ve also done the best I can in things before only to be snubbed and graded as subpar. I also feel like good things don’t come my way no matter how much effort I put in. And I also haven’t received comments before on how to improve a lot. I can really relate to everything you just said. I don’t know what advice I can give right now other than to say that even if you’re not the best in something, you should still try. I think something that has helped me a lot when I start comparing myself to others is to stop doing that for a bit and instead change the focus to improving myself on my own. I think doing martial arts for so long has really helped me with that and taught me that not everything has to be a competition. You can improve at things and become better at them and not necessarily have to be the best. I really hope you feel better soon. Sometimes I feel like I’m drowning a lot too, but still, I never give up.



Hey there. I’m sorry that your friends aren’t being good friends to you. The pandemic has made things a lot more difficult, and sometimes it’s hard to keep a good connection with people. I also feel like some of my online friends understand me better and are better friends. I have felt like, in the past, that certain irl friends didn’t really care about me. I have a lot of people I talk to every day, and I don’t ever have enough time to talk to everyone and make sure that we’re all on good terms. But I do take the time to talk to the people that truly matter to me, because the people who mind don’t matter, and the people who don’t mind do matter. I hope you feel better soon and that you can have a good time with a friend soon. I know for sure that I’ve been craving human connection with people other than my family for a long time during this pandemic now.
