What's Bothering You?

[TheSillyPuppy]

Spoiler: Rant of a tired woman

Can't shake the feeling of being trapped / responsible for everything. Ugh. Can somebody else just take over and make decisions / clean my house?
And my son might be getting sick and is having trouble learning some basic skills and doesn't want to be around me anymore. ☹
And why am I awake at 6am? Because somebody finally got to bed after a gaming spree and is going to leave me alone to do everything AGAIN. EVERY WEEKEND, SAME STRUGGLE. AGHHHHHH.

Hey Renn, I personally can't relate, but now that I've gotten older, I can finally appreciate how much effort goes into keeping a household running. Please remember to take some moments for yourself, even if it means there will be more dust on the floor, etc. I hope your son feels better soon, too.

Do you ever just look at house prices and just... lose the will to do anything? Besides paying rent to my parents, I spend around 4% of my take-home income every month (if even) and I still feel like I will never be able to own a place to call my own. IT feels like there's only so much that budgeting can do and it will take some divine intervention for house prices to even have a chance to look remotely in touch with the average person's reality...

Firecrackers again. Please stop. Please stop. (a lot of intrusive thoughts incoming).

I miss when there was no subdivision behind where live. I can hear someone talking loud too. ugh.and then a lot of these people let their dogs run around and they’re constantly barking throughout the night.

Thanks for the encouragement.

Unfortunately, my worst fear was confirmed: he has the 'rona.
As a parent, ofc my first thought is "where did I go wrong?". Did I forget to wash his hands, did sending him to school earn me this karma, etc.
I'm just mad that we lived such a careful life and still got caught in the Covid-19 madness. I know logically this isn't my fault, and I know professionally how damn hard it is to get vaccines approved / distributed, but it's such a desperate fight when it enters my home.
It's a personal affront and I do not like feeling cornered and on the defensive.

Oh my goodness Jadetine I’m so sorry I hope that your son has a quick recovery and everybody stays safe. That must be so scary and I can’t imagine how difficult that must be. I’ll be sending good thoughts your way

Sorry for butting in. I’m sorry to hear that (as well as being left to do all the work and how you felt earlier). Sending you my wishes and hope he has a speedy recovery and that you hang in there. . If there is anything I can do to help you de-stress, don’t hesitate to dm me . Sorry again for replying and late; just saw your post and felt like I had to say something.

Oh no, I'll be sending good vibes your way and praying for your son's speedy recovery and your family's safety. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you need to talk or vent or anything else.

I feel you. Trust me, here in New York, it's firecracker city. Sometimes you can't even have a conversation without BOOOOOM BOOM FSHHHHHHH BOOOM BOOM FSSHH BOOOM BOOOM FSHHHH.
And somebody on my street decided to have a cookout..... in the middle of covid. No masks in sight and I bet 5 cents barely anyone is vaccinated.

Nevermind.

I always am so tired and hate myself a bit after socializing. I can’t help but look back on the time and just think I was so loud and talked too much and was too, just everything.

happy and lucky to be able to safely see some friends now, but feeling so run down afterwards is such an exhausting and discouraging cycle.

It makes me missed forced social distancing a little…

 

[spawnpoint]

i just looked back at my old posts- i can’t believe myself. they were so cringey and just weird and dishonest- ugh really

well I'd look at it this way, if you look back on your old self and cringe at it it just means you've grown as a person

I feel the same way when I go out to see my friends (before pandemic). I have fun but feel mentally exhausted when I come home and stressed. Hang in there friend . If you need to vent, my dms are open always

i’m so sorry to hear this! i hope he has a speedy recovery and that you all remain in good health. sending many well wishes your way.

i’m the same way and it is absolutely exhausting and not fair at all. i know i’m essentially a stranger but my dms are always open if you need to vent or a few kitty pictures to cheer you up.

Yeah and the wannabe-phone layout is horrible.

Been feeling very, not great the last little while. Like I'm stuck in a funk. I want to do things but I literally just, don't feel like doing anything at all, and it's very frustrating. On top of that I haven't been feeling well physically lately either. :c

I also only have a little while till my birthday, and my best friend's birthday. She wants me to draw her something as her gift, and I want to, but I suck at art these days and I'm super worried I won't be able to do it or that even if I do she'll be disappointed.

 

[Dunquixote]

I feel embarrassed about something.
Firecrackers again. Please stop

I am a bit worried about some stuff but I think everything will be okay.

 

[DinosaurDumpster]

i was doing decent at learning a new song and not getting frustrated at myself but then i had to go do something and it totally ruined it. now i can't play it right and i'm getting mad.

My stomachs been upset for a few days now and I’m getting tired of it
