This is great advice, thank you

I’m most definitely burnt out. Luckily there’s still some daylight when I finish my shift, so I’m definitely going for some walks.

Unfortunately I feel like I’m unable to take a breaks when there’s still so much stuff to do, it’s a vicious cycle. But I’m confident I’ll be able this stuff out thanks to the advice I recieved in this thread.

Thanks for the encouragement, I truly appreciate it

Have you talked about this with your in-real-life persons? Or are you making a brave face while crumbling inside? Maybe it’s time to open up not just online but to someone who is in this with you - and especially the people affected by your struggle.

Deinitely dying inside while tryng to look normal. The problem is, this mainly affects my job, and even though there are people I feel comfortable talking to, it’s still a workplace and I do not like exposing myself in it. I feel like the more you let others know you, the more weapons they have against you (I’m talking about the boss especially).

I really think the “fake it until you make it” approach is the only one viable in a workplace that is not perfectly morally aligned with you. I’m probably just overthinking, but it’s a chance I’m not really willing to take.

Thanks for all the advice, it’s much appreciated

Seems like making lists is the way to go. Thanks!

I really appreciate you took the time to write that, plenty of practical solutions that look like exactly what I need. I’ll need to make a list just to remember them!

I get really stressed and guilty when I have favors hanging over my head that I know I won’t have time for.

I swear I do this all the time and I hate myself for that.

Thanks again for your advice, I wish you the best of luck. We both can do it!

Yeah, I’ve been often told to make lists but the habit never really stuck with me. I guess it’s time to change that

I’ve spent a lot of my life trying to hit an expectation target that is often times manufactured in my own head, or just completely unknown and I’m worrying for nothing.

I feel this so much, it’s scary how reality is often so different from my own perception. I realized it recently and I’m starting to suppress these thoughts entirely, unless I have explicit evidence of what people expect of me.

I always try to tell myself that no one is getting anything from me if I’m not healthy and supported myself, so fixing that comes first.

That is definitely true, unfortunately when you are in the loop it’s easy to forget that. I guess I need to talk and express how I feel more to solve that.
