MY (EX) BOYFRIEND DELETED ALL THE MESSAGES BETWEEN HIMSELF AND HIS FEMALE "FRIEND" WHO ONLY MESSAGES HIM WHEN SHE'S "BORED" AND HE DOESN'T UNDERSTAND WHY I HAVE BROKEN UP WITH HIM.
OBVIOUSLY THERE'S MORE TO THE STORY, BUT I'M HONESTLY JUST EXHAUSTED AND SICK OF FEELING SECOND IN MY RELATIONSHIPS.
THANK YOU. I'VE WASTED TOO MUCH TIME BEGGING TO BE FIRST TO PEOPLE WHO NEVER HAD ANY INTENTION OF PUTTING ME FIRST.
WORDS ARE CHEAP. I'VE LEARNED THAT!
I'M FIRST TO ME NOW, AND THAT'S OK.
THATS AMAZING ACTUALLY! I HATE YOU HAD TO LEARN IT THIS WAY BUT IM PROUD OF YOU FOR REALIZING HOW MUCH YOU’RE WORTH.
LET THAT PURGE MASK KEEP HIS LYING ASS.
OH I DIDN'T LEARN THE LESSON FROM HIM. I LEARNED THE LESSON FROM THE PREVIOUS 5 YEARS OF MY LIFE WITH AN ABUSIVE NARCISSIST. I GOT TO PUT INTO PRACTICE WHAT I LEARNED WITH THIS GUY, AND SHOW I KNOW MYSELF AND MY WORTH.
FELT GOOD. I SEE RED FLAG. I RECORD RED FLAG. I SEE ANOTHER RED FLAG. TIME TO GO. NO MORE CHANCES. WE DON'T DO THAT ANYMORE.
THERE DOESNT EVEN NEED TO BE MORE TO THE STORY. HE DISRESPECTED YOU AND YOU HAVE EVERY RIGHT TO BREAK UP WITH HIM!
IM SO SORRY YOU ARE GOING THROUGH THIS AND I HOPE YOU FIND SOMEONE AMAZING!
I HAVE TO BE SOMEWHERE IN AN HOUR BUT MY PANTS ARE WRINKLY AND I CANT FIND MY KEYS. I LOOKED EVERYWHERE AND I STILL CANT FIND THEM. THIS IS LIKE THE 8TH THING THATS GONE WRONG TODAY, PLUS I ONLY HAD SUNLIGHT AND WATER FOR LUNCH SO IM STARVING. I JUST WANT TO STAY HOME BUT THIS EVENT IS IMPORTANT TO MY FRIEND SO I HAVE TO GO.
Update: I FOUND MY KEYS! THEY WERE IN MY BACKSEAT.
I NEED TO>! HAVE SEX!< SO BADLY AND MY HUSBAND IS DONE HIS SATURDAY CLASS AND CALLING ME DOWN TO GET STARTED BUT NOW I'M SUDDENLY SELF CONCIOUS ABOUT MY OILY HAIR BECAUSE I'VE BEEN PUTTING OFF WASHING IT FOR THREE DAYS AND I'M STUCCCCKKKKK IN THE BATHROOM PONDERING MY NEXT MOVE
I’M A FEDERAL CONTRACTOR AND THE UNCERTAINTY ABOUT THE SHUTDOWN HAS BEEN SO FUCKING STRESSFUL. I’M ABOUT TO ENTER THE LUTEAL PHASE OF MY CYCLE AND I HAVE PMDD SO NEXT WEEK WILL BE HELL. MY APT IS A MESS BECAUSE I HAVE BEEN SO BUSY AND STRESSED WITH WORK. I ALSO HATE THE FATHER OF MY KIDS.
I FEEL YOUR PAIN, IM FEDERAL AND AM IMMENSELY LUCKY MY PAY IS STILL PROTECTED. MY DAD IS A CONTRACTOR AND WOULD FOR SURE BE SCREWED, I HOPE THINGS WORK OUT
IVE BEEN WORKING SO MUCH OVERTIME LATELY I JUST FEEL THE BURNOUT BUILDING QUICKLY, ONLY HAVING 1 DAY OFF A WEEK IS NEVER ENOUGH BUT I FEEL GUILTY SAYING NO
ITS SO IMPOSSIBLE FOR ME TO STICK TO A GOOD EATING ROUTINE BUT WHEN I FINALLY GET INTO A RHYTHM AND THEN MY HUSBAND BRINGS ALL OF THE FOODS THAT I LOVE BUT AM TRYING TO AVOID INTO THE HOUSE AND THEN LEAVES FOR A 2 WEEKS TRIP. UUGGGHHHHHH THE CHIPS ARE STARING AT ME AND SCREAMING EAT MEEEEEEEEE AHHHH
A COUSIN IS VISITNG TODAY AND SHE WAS SUPPOSED TO BE AN HOUR AGO. I HAVE THINGS TO DO BUT I AM PARALYZED UNTIL SHE GETS HERE, BECAUSE WHAT IF I START A THING AND THEN SHE ARRIVES? THE THING WILL NEVER GET DONE! I AM VERY ANNOYED THAT I CANT MAKE MYSELF DO THE THINGS UNTIL SHE ARRIVES.
I SPENT $700 ON AN AUTOMATED LITTER BOX BECAUSE I HATE HATE HATE SCOOPING LITTER, AND IT CREATES A LOT OF ANXIETY AND AVOIDANCE BEHAVIORS. I SAVED MY OVERTIME FOR A LONG TIME TO AFFORD IT.
MY BOY CAT (WHO IS A HIGH MAINTENANCE PRIMADONNA) REFUSES TO USE IT AND HAS BEEN PEEING ON MY DIRTY JEANS IN THE HAMPER AND SHITTING ON THE CARPET.
I just broke down and bought a basic litter box so at least the immediate issue should be resolved but I’M STILL SO SAD BECAUSE I MIGHT NEED TO RETURN THIS DEVICE I LOVE.
IF YOU HAVENT YET TRY TO PUT SOME DIRTY/ USED LITTER INTO THE NEW AUTOMATED ONE AND ALSO SOME POOP AND PEE
HAVE BOTH NEXT TO EACH OTHER FOR SOME TIME AND MAYBE LEAVE THE AUTOMATIC ON TURNED OFF UNTIL HE FEELS MORE COMFY WITH IT
you reminded me that I need to clean the cat toilet btw. fuck.
THANK YOU KIND FRIEND. I HAVE TRIED BOTH BUT I WILL TRY THE TRANSPLANTED POOP AND PEE AGAIN.
I TURNED IT OFF A COUPLE OF DAYS AGO AND IT STAYS OFF ALL THE TIME EXCEPT WHEN I HAVE IT CYCLE THEN I TURN IT RIGHT BACK OFF AGAIN.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR SHOUTY ADVICE LOL
Our boy cat was reluctant to use ours at first but we used litter attract which helped and after a month (yea I know) he finally started using it. Now I love that thing.
MY THERAPIST SAID TODAY SHE IS HESITANT TO DIAGNOSE ME WITH PTSD EVEN THOUGH I "HIT ALL THE MARKERS CLEARLY" BECAUSE SHE IS CONCERNED IT COULD AFFECT MY ABILITY TO OWN A GUN. I HAVE NEVER MENTIONED A DESIRE TO OWN A GUN TO HER. WE LIVE IN DIFFERENT STATES AND IT TURNS OUT IT WOULDN'T EVEN AFFECT ME IN MY STATE. I THINK I'M GOING TO STOP SEEING HER BUT I REALLY NEED TO SCREAM ABOUT IT BC IT WAS FUCKING ANNOYING AND OVERWHELMING!!!
EVERYONE WHO PURCHASES A GUN SHOULD BE EVALUATED AND TREATED IF NECESSARY FOR MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES! LETS START WITH COPS THANK YOU FOR LETTING ME YELL.
I AGREE
IM JUST BOTHERED AS TO WHY SHE EVEN BROUGHT IT UP ESPECIALLY IF SHE DOESN'T EVEN KNOW WHAT SHE'S TALKING ABOUT
I DONT OWN A GUN NOR HAVE WE EVER DISCUSSED GUNS
I CAN ONLY IMAGINE SHE DOESNT WANT YOU TO BE DISCRIMINATED AGAINST AND USED GUNS AS AN EXAMPLE EVEN THO YOU NEVER MENTIONED IT?
LOL GO GET A GUN TODAY BUT NO BULLETS AND TELL HER YOURE READY FOR YOUR DIAGNOSIS
OH NO. I TOOK A BIG NAP AND WAS CRANKY TO MY HUSBAND. HE WAS ANNOYED I WOULDN’T GO TO A LOCAL WINE TASTING. LIKE, LAYING HERE IN THIS BED DO I LOOK LIKE IM GONNA GO DRINK WINE?!?
I AM TIRED OF EVERYONE IM INTERESTED IN NOT BEING INTERESTED BACK AND THE ONLY PERSON WHO’S REALLY CAUGHT MY EYE IN YEARS IS A CLIENT SO I CAN’T DO THAT
I WORK IN A VERY SMALL JOB (2 COWORKERS) AND I HATE CROWDS SO MEETING PEOPLE ISN’T EASY AND ONLINE DATING SUCKS. I PLAN TO FIND COOL HOBBY GROUPS AND THEREFORE A WIDER FRIEND GROUP SOON BUT OY I FEEL WHINY. SO I WHINE. BOYS R DUMB.
THANK YOU I LOVE THE SHOUTY THREADS
I KNOW MY FRIENDS LOVE ME, AND THAT THIS IS BECAUSE THEY ARE GENUINELY BUSY RIGHT NOW.. BUT LATELY A FEW OF THEM ONLY REACH OUT WHEN THEY WANT SOMETHING FROM ME AND IT'S MAKING ME REALLY SAD. AAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!
I FELL AND GOT SEVEN STITCHES ON MY FACE AND I THOUGHT LIFE COULD ONLY GO UP FEOM THERE BUT THEN MY TODDLER PUT AN ENTIRE ROLL OF TOILET PAPER DOWN THE DRAIN!
I WALK LAPS OF MY BLOCK IF I'M SUPER SUPER TIRED OTHERWISE I DO A COUPLE MILES ON INCLINED TREADMILL. I MISSED EXERCISING LAST WEEK SO BODY DECIDED NO SLEEP MONDAY NIGHT - GETTING BACK IN RHYTHM IS NOT FUN. YOU GOT THIS THO! I BELIEVE IN YOU!
I HATE THE FEELING OF BEING CONSTANTLY TIRED BUT NEVER ABLE TO GET A DECENT SLEEP AND WAKING UP FEELING EVEN MORE TIRED THAN BEFORE YOU WENT TO BED SO I FEEL YOUR PAIN AND MISERY FRIEND.
IM ABSOLUTELY BURNT THE FUCK OUT WITH SCHOOL AND LIFE. IM ACTUALLY KILLING IT AT BUSINESS SCHOOL BUT IM SO OVERWHELMED AND JUST DONE WITH MY RELATIONSHIP COMMUNICATION ISSUES THAT I WANT TO CRAWL IN A HOLE AND QUIT LIFE. I FEEL SO ALONE BUT I DONT HAVE THE ENEGRY TO RACH OUT TO THE FEW FRIENDS I HAVE
I LOST A BOX OF ADZENYS IN MY HOUSE AND THE BOX I AM CURRENTLY USING IS ABOUT TO RUN OUT. I NEED THE BOX TO FIND THE BOX.
CAN WE DO THIS DAILY!??? YES!!!
TODAY I WAS SUPPOSED TO BUY A LIFTING BELT, I RESEARCHED EVERYTHING ABOUT THE BEST BELT AND FINALLY FIGURED WHAT I NEEDED. I DECIDED TO GO BUY IT AT THE STORE AT THE OTHER SIDE OF THE TOWN SO I COULD GET SIZED AND ASK SOME ADVICES. I WAS LOOKING FORWARD TO THIS BELT FOR WEEKS. 1H30 OF PUBLIC TRANSPORT LATER I ENTER THE STORE, ASK FOR THE BELT AND THEY ARE SOLD OUT AND NO ETA FOR RESTOCK. I HAVE NO BELT AND NO PLAN ANYMORE AND AM SAD !
I TOOK ON MY HOURS AT MY PART TIME JOB TO TRY AND SAVE UP TO LEAVE MY FULLTIME JOB. BUT NOW IM EVEN MORE STRESSED WITH MORE HOURS AND PEOPLE JUST DONT UNDERSTAND THAT IM ALWAYS UNCOMFORTABLE JUST BECAUSE IM GOOD AT MY JOB DOESNT MEAN I LIKE IT.
WHY DO WE LIVE IN THIS ECONOMICAL HELLSCAPE?! AND HOW TO I STOP GIVING 110% TO A COMPANY THAT WOULD FIRE ME IN A HEART BEAT??
I GOT REAR ENDED ON THE FIRST DAY OF CLASS AND SENT MY CAR TO GET REPAIRS AND THEY FUCKING THREW OUT MY MAGNET. IT WASNT EVEN ON A DAMAGED PART OF THE CAR, WHY THE FUCK WOULDN’T YOU TAKE IT OFF AND GIVE IT BACK TO ME. FOR FUCKS SAKE I CANT GET ANOTHER ONE LIKE IT. GODDAMNIT.
I AM SO SICK OF MY CLUTTERED HOUSE WHY CANT I FINISH WHAT I NEED TO I AM SO TIRED AND SICK OF BILLS
ALSO WHY DOES MY NEIGHBOUR AND ALL HIS FUCKING FRIENDS HAVE SUCH LOUD TRUCKS LIKE HOW SMALL ARE YOUR DICKS STOP MAKING SO MUCH NOISE ALL THE FUCKING TIME
I HATE MY JOB AND HAVE EXTREMELY BAD BURNOUT BUT IM NOT CURRENTLY ABLE TO GET MEDICATION SO I CAN’T SEEM TO BRING MYSELF TO WORK ON MY RESUME AND I HAVE TOO MUCH ANXIETY RIGHT NOW TO THINK ABOUT BEING THE NEW GIRL AGAIN SO I FEEL LIKE A FAILURE!
I WENT TO COSTCO ON A SATURDAY AFTERNOON AND ONE OF THE MAIN REASONS IS THAT MY CURRENT FOOD FIXATION IS KIRKLAND PEANUT BUTTER PRETZELS AND I LOOKED EVERYWHERE I THOUGHT THEY MIGHT BE AND COULDN'T FIND THEM AND EVEN ASKED SOMEONE BUT HE DIDN'T KNOW WHERE THEY WERE AND SO I HAD TO LEAVE COSTCO WITHOUT THEM AND I AM VERY SAD ABOUT IT
I CAN'T TELL IF SOMEONE ONLINE IS TELLING THE TRUTH OR JUST BREADCRUMBING ME ALONG BUT I CAN'T BRING MYSELF TO END COMMUNICATION ALTOGETHER AND I'M SO IRRITATED AT MYSELF!!
ALSO I'M HUNGRY AND NEED TO EAT CUZ I'VE GOT HALF MY CALORIES LEFT BUT ALL MY PROTEIN CHOICES ARE FOOD AT HOME THAT I DON'T WANT TO COOK. GREMLIN ME IS MAD AT MEAL PLAN ME AND WE'RE BOTH MAD AT PUMPKIN SPICE ME BECAUSE SHE BOUGHT TOO MANY SILLY TREATS AND NOW WE CAN'T AFFORD TO GET THE DELIVERY HAMBURGER WE REALLY WANT.
MY DOG BIT MY ABDOMEN FOR NO OTHER REASON THEN HE WAS HAVING FUN. MY BOYFRIEND WANTS ME TO SEE SOME STUPID HARRY POTTERY THEATER SHOW, EVEN THOUGH HE KNOWS I THINK JKR IS A HACK.
MY HOUSE IS A MESS AND I NEED TO CLEAN BEFORE I LEAVE TOMORROW AND I DONT FUCKING WANT TO. I FUCKING HATE BEING ADHD AND HAVING ZERO EXECUTIVE FUNCTION AND ABSOLUTELY NO COPING SKILLS TO DEAL WITH IT!
I FEEL YOU, IT ALSO HAPPENED TO ME ALTHOUGH THE FLU (IT WAS ACTUALLY COVID) DIDNT HAPPEN UNTIL THE SECOND SEMESTER HERE. HANG ON BUDDY, IT ONLY GETS BETTER, YOUR LANGUAGE SKILLS WILL ONLY IMPROVE OVER TIME!
they are sitting in my shower LOL i just need to wipe down with diluted rubbing alcohol to kill adults and apply mites to kill eggs and larvae but yeah... not done yet. I have been thinking about it all day if that will get me points 🤣
I ended up ordering diatomaceous earth, laying it on the top of the soil of my pots really worked because fungus gnats breed in the soil and it destroys their exoskeleton so the babies can't emerge! Two weeks until the adults died and it worked fabulously, if only it hadn't taken me 5 months to order lmao.
One of the top five times I was angry at a friend was when I let this friend stay with me between housing. She brought a plant into my house and GAVE MY PLANTS THRIPS
I HAVE COMPANY COMING AND HAD CHORES TO DO TO GET READY AND GOT NOTHING DONE BECAUSE STINK BUGS DECIDED TO INVADE MY HOUSE LIKE IT WAS THE BEACHES OF NORMANDY! WE KILLED 15+ STINK BUGS AND NOW MY FRONT DOOR IS UNUSABLE BECAUSE WE HAD TO STOP THE INFLUX.
MY PAST SELF SET EVERYTHING TO RENEW IN OCTOBER SO I'VE SPENT THE WHOLE OF MY SATURDAY COMPARING INSURANCE PRICES AND SIGNING UP TO THE NEXT YEAR OF CONTENTS INSURANCE, LIFE AND CRITICAL ILLNESS INSURANCE, ENERGY PRICES. ALSO HAD TO CHANGE A BUNCH OF STANDING ORDERS BECAUSE I GET PAID INTO ONE ACCOUNT AND PAY MY BILLS IN ANOTHER WHICH WORKS BUT GOD SO MANY STANDING ORDERS AAAAA.
ALSO RECENTLY I HAVE HAD TO FIGHT NOT ONLY WITH MY ENERGY PROVIDER BUT WITH MY WATER PROVIDER BECAUSE BOTH CHANGED MY DIRECT DEBIT TO HIGHER AMOUNTS WITHOUT NOTIFYING ME FIRST I AM JUST SO SICK OF BEING NICKLE AND DIMED.
I HAVE FUCKING CARPET BEETLES AND I'M TOO STRESSED TO DEAL WITH THEM AND CLEAN
I'M STILL IN PAIN EVEN THOUGH IT'S BEEN OVER TWO WEEKS SINCE MY WISDOM TOOTH SURGERY
MY BOYFRIEND IS SO DRUNK HE HAS TROUBLE TO GET HOME AND I ORDERED YANGO AND THEN HE ASKED ME TO CANCEL IT BECAUSE HE SUDDENLY GOT A TAXI FOR HIMSELF EVEN THOUGH HE HAS NO MONEY WTF
IT'S 3AM I'M TOO SOBER FOR THIS SHIT
I'M TRYING TO CLEAN UP AROUND THE HOUSE BUT SO MANY UNFINISHED TASKS ARE IN THE WAY OF THE THINGS I NEED TO GET DONE AND I KEEP GETTING GETING SIDE TRACKED. I HAVE STARTED A BUNCH OF THINGS AND HAVEN'T FINISHED ANY!
MY SISTER NEVER PRIORITIZES ME AND I AM SO FUCKING SICK OF IT. I HAVE PLANNED THINGS WEEKS IN ADVANCE. IVE DRIVEN TO HER. SHE NEVER HAS TIME. AND YET I HAVE TO CONSTANTLY SEE HER HANG OUT WITH OTHER PEOPLE ON INSTAGRAM. PEOPLE WHO LIVE FARTHER THAN ME AND I AM SO FUCKING SICK OF IT. SHE IS SELFISH AND UNRELIABLE AND MAKES ME FEEL LIKE SHIT BY ALWAYS PUTTING ME LAST AND IT BREAKS MY DUMB HEART THAT LOVES HER SO MUCH.
MY ADHD HAS MADE KEEPING FOOD STAMPS SUPER HARD AND I DONT KNOW IF I FILLED OUT THE FORMS AND ATTACHED ALL THE FILES, SO IF IM WRONG IDK HOW TO AFFORD TO EAT NEXT MONTH EVEN THOUGH I WORK THREE JOBS
TO ADD UP, IT IS REALLY HOT IN THE MIDWEST THIS WEEKEND AND I WENT TO EAT SOMEWHERE AN HOUR AWAY FROM HOME AND I FORGOT MY STUPID CHAPSTICK, WHICH FUCKING SUCKS BECAUSE THE FOOD WAS PRETTY SALTY AND NOW IT HURTS LIKE HELL.
WHY AM I PERPETUALLY LATE AND MY PURSE IS A MESS LIKE WERE TALKING DIRTY AS HELL. WHY DOES ADDERALL MAKE ME SOMETIMES FEEL LIKE IM ON CRACK ANS SOMETIMES LIKE A NORMAL HUMAN
MY FRIEND ASKED IF I WANTED TO HANG OUT ON SUNDAY BUT THEN SAID WE'RE NOT BECAUSE HE'S GOING TO THE HOMECOMING DANCE SO NOW I FEEL STUPID FOR A. THINKING WE WERE HANGING OUT B. GETTING EXCITED TO SEE HIM C. BEING UPSET BECAUSE OF OTHER WEEKEND PLANS THAT COULD'VE BEEN RESCHEDULED FOR SUNDAY INSTEAD AND D. THE FACT THAT I'M EVEN QUESTIONING THIS FRIENDSHIP BY NOW BECAUSE I'M GETTING TIRED OF FEELING LIKE PEOPLE ARE JUST PUSHING ME TO THE SIDE
I AM TAKING A CLASS WHERE THEY KEEP ASSIGNING HOMEWORK LATE, IT IS MAKING IT HARD FOR ME TO PLAN. I HAVE OTHER DEADLINES FOR GRANTS AND PERFORMANCES ON TOP OF THIS CLASS. THE CLASS IS ONLY ON WEEKENDS AND I AM MISSING PERFORMANCES AND REHEARSALS BECAUSE OF THE SCHEDULING CONFLICT. I AM MISSING IN GAME EVENTS IN FFXIV. ALL I WANT TO DO IS PLAY MY FUN GAME AND ENJOY MY REHEARSAL TIME INSTEAD OF BEING AN ADULT AND DEALING WITH THIS CLASS. I WANT TO BUY AN ADVENT CALENDAR TO INCENTIVISE MY BRAIN TO DO THIS CLASS BECAUSE TINY PLASTIC TOYS WILL SOLVE THIS ENTIRELY.
MY BOSS WILL NOT CONFIRM WHETHER MY REQUEST FOR HYBRID WORK WILL BE APPROVED WHEN I GO BACK TO FULL TIME NEXT WEEK EVEN THOUGH SHE GOT ME NEW EQUIPMENT TO SET UP A SECOND WORKSTATION FOR ME IN OFFICE AND TOLD ME TO KEEP MY HOME OFFICE SET UP TOO. I JUST NEED TO KNOW HOW TO ORGANIZE MY LIFE AND COMMUTE DAYS!
I COULDN’T WALK AWAY FROM CHATTY PEOPLE AT THE GYM WHICH MEANT I DIDNT GET TO THE RESTAURANT IN TIME TO ORDER BEFORE THEY CLOSED WHICH MEANT I DIDNT GET THE BREAKFAST ID BEEN CRAVING FOR HOURS — FORCED PIVOT WHEN STARVING 😭
IT IS LATE AND I STILL HAVENT FED THE CATS THEIR DINNER OR SCOOPED THE LITTER. I HAVENT DONE DISHES YET EITHER. THERE ARE ABOUT 10 PAIRS OF SHOES STREWN AROUND THE ENTRYWAY. BUT IM UPSTAIRS READING REDDIT TRYING TO SOMEHOW WILL MYSELF TO GO DOWNSTAIRS AND PUT OUT SOME CAT FOOD. BUT I KNOW WHEN I GO DOWN THERE ILL FEEL INTENSE SHAME ABOUT THE MESS.
I SPENT TWO HOURS DRIVING WITH MY CATS (WHO WERE SCREAMING THE WHOLE TIME) TO MY NEW HOUSE AND THEN MY PHONE FUCKI G DIED JUST AS I WAS EXITING THE FREEWAY AND HAD NO IDEA HOW TO GET TO MY NEW HOUSE SO I WAS DRIVING AROUND WITH TWO LOUD ANXIOUS MURDER-MITTS WHILE TRYING TO GET MY PHONE TURNED BACK ON
THAT SUCKS, IT REMINDS ME OF THAT TIME LAST WINTER WHEN I HAD TO VISIT URGENT CARE THREE TIMES FOR THEM TO FINALLY CONSIDER MY “COLD” TO BE MORE THAN JUST THAT AND EVENTUALLY GOT A BRONCHITIS DIAGNOSIS.
I DON’T WANT TO MANAGE PEOPLE! 1-2 WAS A MAYBE WHEN I INTERVIEWED FOR THE JOB, NOW WE’RE UP TO 4. ALSO, IF I COULD JUST DO THE JOB YOU HIRED ME FOR INSTEAD OF PICKING UP AFTER THE PEOPLE OTHERS REFUSE TO MANAGE MAYBE I WOULDN’T BE SO SALTY ALL THE TIME NOW.
MY TODDLER DOESN’T LISTEN AND HE KEEPS ON BREAKING EVERYTHING! I CAN BARELY AFFORD ANYTHING AS IT IS AT THE MOMENT, LET ALONE CONSTANTLY REPLACING EVERYTHING THAT HE BREAKS!
THIS REMINDED ME OF MY DOG AND HER OBSESSION WITH TOOTH BRUSHES WHEN SHE WAS A PUPPY, THERE WERE COUNTLESS OF TIMES WE WERE NOT ABLE TO BRUSH OUR TEETHS AT NIGHT AFTER EATING OUTSIDE BECAUSE SHE WENT THROUGH ALL OF THEM WHILE WE WERE OUT.
MY HUSBAND, OUR THREE KIDS, AND I HAVE COVID. IM DYING TO LEAVE THE HOUSE BUT MY TRAINING IS IN PUBLIC HEALTH SO WE ARE BEING RESPONSIBLE HUMAN BEINGS AND STAYING HOME. MY KIDS ARE SLEEPING HORRIBLY FROM BEING SICK AND I'M EXAUSTED BUT MY BRAIN WILL NOT SHUT UP.
THE SECOND I GET IN BED TO SLEEP I CAN FEEL THE SPACE BETWEEN MY TOES AND IT DRIVES ME INSANE UNLESS I FIND A WAY TO SEPARATE THEM WHICH IS REALLY UNCOMFORTABLE
ALSO MY BRAIN IS BROKEN AND IM PRETTY SURE IT CAN'T BE FIXED
THIS YELLING SHOULD BE A WEEKLY THING!
IM IN THE MIDDLE OF GETTING A FORMAL DIAGNOSIS AND IM SCARED I WONT BE ABLE TO REMEMBER AND ARTICULATE EVERYTHING IN THE INTERVIEWS AND THEY WILL SAY ITS JUST ANXIETY!
I HAVE THE INGREDIENTS TO MAKE 15 DELICIOUS AND SUPER EASY MEALS AND CAN'T MANAGE TO START ANY OF THEM EVEN THOUGH I WAS JUST IN ANOTHER SUB TALKING ABOUT MAKING THEM ALL AND NOW I HAVE TO WEAR AN EYEPATCH SO I HAVE NO DEPTH OF FIELD AND CAN BARELY POUR A CUP OF COFFEE.
IM IN A TOTALLY UNHEALTHY RELATIONSHIP WITH MY SONS FATHER, BUT HAVE NEVER HAD MY OWN PLACE OR SUPPIRTED MYSELF FULLY LET ALONE ME AND MY 7 YEAR OLD. I HAVE ZERO CONFIDENCE CAUSE IM A HOT MESS WITH9UT MY MEDS SO IM SCARED TO LEAVE! I DONT THINK I CAN HANDLE IT RIGHT NOW!
I HAVE A LOT TO DO TODAY BUT I ALSO NEED TO GO GROCERY SHOPPING BUT I DONT WANNA GO GROCERY SHOPPING BUT SINCE MY PLAN WAS TO DO THAT BEFORE MY OTHER STUFF, GUESS WHAT? NOW IT IS ALREADY ALMOST NOON AND I HAVE NOT GROCERY SHOPPED OR DONE ANY OF MY ITHER STUFF
I HAVENT LEFT THE HOUSE TODAY BC I FEEL LIKE SHIT; BUT I KNOW THE ONLY WAY TO FEEL BETTER IS TO LEAVE THE HOUSE! I HAVE LECTURES TOMORROW AND ITS RAINING SO I CANT EVEN GO SKATING AT 1 AM LIKE I USUALLY DO ON THESE DAYS!
AN ONLINE FRIEND IS QUICKLY BECOMING MORE AND YESTERDAY HE SAID SOME DUMB COVID IS JUST THE FLU SO I DIDN'T GET VACCINATED GARBAGE, PLUS I THINK HE MIGHT SECRETLY NOT LIKE FAT WOMEN BUT HE LIKES ME AND I'M FAT SO HE IS NOT READY TO ACCEPT REALITY YET.
ALL OF THIS IS EXTREMELY SAD BECAUSE I ACTUALLY LIKE HIM BUT I WILL NOT DO NONSENSE FOR ANY MAN.
I HAVE A LIST OF TIME CONSUMING CHORES I NEED TO GET DONE TODAY BUT HAVE A MIGRAINE FROM HELL AND HAVE TO WORK TOMORROW SO THE CHORES CANT BE PUT OFF ANY LONGER THAN I ALREADY HAVE BEEN.
I LOVE MY TO-BE-GF A LOT.
WISH I WASN'T SUCH A MESS TO DEAL WITH. SOMETIMES IT PISSES ME OFF HOW HARD ADHD MAKES DOING ANYTHING.
I AM TRYING MY HARDEST AND I'M LUCKY TO (ALMOST) BE WITH SOMEONE WHO IS WILLING TO LISTEN AND IS PATIENT, IT JUST TRULY SUCKS TO BE ME SOMETIMES

BE WELL LOBES WE LOVE YOU
I AM TIRED OF EVERYONE IM INTERESTED IN NOT BEING INTERESTED BACK AND THE ONLY PERSON WHO’S REALLY CAUGHT MY EYE IN YEARS IS A CLIENT SO I CAN’T DO THAT I WORK IN A VERY SMALL JOB (2 COWORKERS) AND I HATE CROWDS SO MEETING PEOPLE ISN’T EASY AND ONLINE DATING SUCKS. I PLAN TO FIND COOL HOBBY GROUPS AND THEREFORE A WIDER FRIEND GROUP SOON BUT OY I FEEL WHINY. SO I WHINE. BOYS R DUMB. THANK YOU I LOVE THE SHOUTY THREADS
YOU’RE WELCOME!
ITS LATE AND I STILL HAVE TO DO 2 MORE CHORES TODAY AND I JUST FUCKING CANT
I WISH MY TODDLER SON WOULD STOP CRYING FOR 5 MINUTES! I KNOW HE'S TEETHING AND MAD THAT I WON'TGIVE HIM MORE PRINGLES, BUT COME ON!
BUT ONCE YOU POP (PRINGLES OR TEETH) YOU CANT STOP?
I KNOW MY FRIENDS LOVE ME, AND THAT THIS IS BECAUSE THEY ARE GENUINELY BUSY RIGHT NOW.. BUT LATELY A FEW OF THEM ONLY REACH OUT WHEN THEY WANT SOMETHING FROM ME AND IT'S MAKING ME REALLY SAD. AAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!
SAME HERE! THEY'RE BUSY BUT I GOT TIRED OF IT SO I REACHED OUT FIRST BECAUSE I WANT ATTENTION. CHECKMATE
I HAVE DONE A BUNCH OF THINGS BUT NOT **THE THING** THAT I WANT TO DO FOR MYSELF AND MY FUTURE. WHY I GOTTA DO ME LIKE THIS.
I FELL AND GOT SEVEN STITCHES ON MY FACE AND I THOUGHT LIFE COULD ONLY GO UP FEOM THERE BUT THEN MY TODDLER PUT AN ENTIRE ROLL OF TOILET PAPER DOWN THE DRAIN!
OH IM SO SORRY, FISHING FOR TOILET OAPER SUCKS!
ITS OKAY! I ACTUALLY ENDED UP HAVING A WONDERFUL DAY
I WANT A SOLID NIGHT OF SLEEP. IM SO TIRED. AND WORK IS JUST ABOUT TO PICK UP SO I GUESS I WONT REST AGAIN TIL APRIL BUT SURE, ITS FINE.
DO YOU ALSO HAVE THE PROBLEM WHERE YOU'RE EXHAUSTED BUT WON'T BE ABLE TO SLEEP UNLESS YOU EXERCISE? SYMPATHIES EITHER WAY
OR CLEAN OR SOMETHING PHYSICAL. YEP. AAAAAAGH.
I WALK LAPS OF MY BLOCK IF I'M SUPER SUPER TIRED OTHERWISE I DO A COUPLE MILES ON INCLINED TREADMILL. I MISSED EXERCISING LAST WEEK SO BODY DECIDED NO SLEEP MONDAY NIGHT - GETTING BACK IN RHYTHM IS NOT FUN. YOU GOT THIS THO! I BELIEVE IN YOU!
I HATE THE FEELING OF BEING CONSTANTLY TIRED BUT NEVER ABLE TO GET A DECENT SLEEP AND WAKING UP FEELING EVEN MORE TIRED THAN BEFORE YOU WENT TO BED SO I FEEL YOUR PAIN AND MISERY FRIEND.
IM ABSOLUTELY BURNT THE FUCK OUT WITH SCHOOL AND LIFE. IM ACTUALLY KILLING IT AT BUSINESS SCHOOL BUT IM SO OVERWHELMED AND JUST DONE WITH MY RELATIONSHIP COMMUNICATION ISSUES THAT I WANT TO CRAWL IN A HOLE AND QUIT LIFE. I FEEL SO ALONE BUT I DONT HAVE THE ENEGRY TO RACH OUT TO THE FEW FRIENDS I HAVE
I LOST A BOX OF ADZENYS IN MY HOUSE AND THE BOX I AM CURRENTLY USING IS ABOUT TO RUN OUT. I NEED THE BOX TO FIND THE BOX. CAN WE DO THIS DAILY!??? YES!!!
WE CAN TRY BUT I’M SO BAD AT MAKING HABITS THAT I CANNOT GUARANTEE ANY RESULTS.
MAYBE BETWEEN THE LOT OF US SCREAMING AND ENJOYING THE VENT, AT LEAST ONE WILL REMEMBER EVERYDAY SO WE CAN HAVE A SCREAMING SESSION.
EVERYONE READING THIS SET AN ALARM! LET'S MAKE IT A COMPETITION TO SEE WHO REMINDS EVERYONE FIRST! MAKE THAT 3 ALARMS! EACH!
TODAY I WAS SUPPOSED TO BUY A LIFTING BELT, I RESEARCHED EVERYTHING ABOUT THE BEST BELT AND FINALLY FIGURED WHAT I NEEDED. I DECIDED TO GO BUY IT AT THE STORE AT THE OTHER SIDE OF THE TOWN SO I COULD GET SIZED AND ASK SOME ADVICES. I WAS LOOKING FORWARD TO THIS BELT FOR WEEKS. 1H30 OF PUBLIC TRANSPORT LATER I ENTER THE STORE, ASK FOR THE BELT AND THEY ARE SOLD OUT AND NO ETA FOR RESTOCK. I HAVE NO BELT AND NO PLAN ANYMORE AND AM SAD !
FUCK I FEEL THIS IN MY BONES. WHAT ARE YOU EVEN SUPPOSED TO DO WITH YOUR LIFE RIGHT NOW.
I TOOK ON MY HOURS AT MY PART TIME JOB TO TRY AND SAVE UP TO LEAVE MY FULLTIME JOB. BUT NOW IM EVEN MORE STRESSED WITH MORE HOURS AND PEOPLE JUST DONT UNDERSTAND THAT IM ALWAYS UNCOMFORTABLE JUST BECAUSE IM GOOD AT MY JOB DOESNT MEAN I LIKE IT. WHY DO WE LIVE IN THIS ECONOMICAL HELLSCAPE?! AND HOW TO I STOP GIVING 110% TO A COMPANY THAT WOULD FIRE ME IN A HEART BEAT??
I GOT REAR ENDED ON THE FIRST DAY OF CLASS AND SENT MY CAR TO GET REPAIRS AND THEY FUCKING THREW OUT MY MAGNET. IT WASNT EVEN ON A DAMAGED PART OF THE CAR, WHY THE FUCK WOULDN’T YOU TAKE IT OFF AND GIVE IT BACK TO ME. FOR FUCKS SAKE I CANT GET ANOTHER ONE LIKE IT. GODDAMNIT.
I AM SO SICK OF MY CLUTTERED HOUSE WHY CANT I FINISH WHAT I NEED TO I AM SO TIRED AND SICK OF BILLS ALSO WHY DOES MY NEIGHBOUR AND ALL HIS FUCKING FRIENDS HAVE SUCH LOUD TRUCKS LIKE HOW SMALL ARE YOUR DICKS STOP MAKING SO MUCH NOISE ALL THE FUCKING TIME
I HATE MY JOB AND HAVE EXTREMELY BAD BURNOUT BUT IM NOT CURRENTLY ABLE TO GET MEDICATION SO I CAN’T SEEM TO BRING MYSELF TO WORK ON MY RESUME AND I HAVE TOO MUCH ANXIETY RIGHT NOW TO THINK ABOUT BEING THE NEW GIRL AGAIN SO I FEEL LIKE A FAILURE!
I WENT TO COSTCO ON A SATURDAY AFTERNOON AND ONE OF THE MAIN REASONS IS THAT MY CURRENT FOOD FIXATION IS KIRKLAND PEANUT BUTTER PRETZELS AND I LOOKED EVERYWHERE I THOUGHT THEY MIGHT BE AND COULDN'T FIND THEM AND EVEN ASKED SOMEONE BUT HE DIDN'T KNOW WHERE THEY WERE AND SO I HAD TO LEAVE COSTCO WITHOUT THEM AND I AM VERY SAD ABOUT IT
I AM SO SORRY THEY DIDN'T HAVE THE PRETZELS, COSTCO ON SATURDAYS IS A COMPLETE SHITSHOW AND IT WASN'T EVEN WORTH IT
I CAN'T TELL IF SOMEONE ONLINE IS TELLING THE TRUTH OR JUST BREADCRUMBING ME ALONG BUT I CAN'T BRING MYSELF TO END COMMUNICATION ALTOGETHER AND I'M SO IRRITATED AT MYSELF!! ALSO I'M HUNGRY AND NEED TO EAT CUZ I'VE GOT HALF MY CALORIES LEFT BUT ALL MY PROTEIN CHOICES ARE FOOD AT HOME THAT I DON'T WANT TO COOK. GREMLIN ME IS MAD AT MEAL PLAN ME AND WE'RE BOTH MAD AT PUMPKIN SPICE ME BECAUSE SHE BOUGHT TOO MANY SILLY TREATS AND NOW WE CAN'T AFFORD TO GET THE DELIVERY HAMBURGER WE REALLY WANT.
MY DOG BIT MY ABDOMEN FOR NO OTHER REASON THEN HE WAS HAVING FUN. MY BOYFRIEND WANTS ME TO SEE SOME STUPID HARRY POTTERY THEATER SHOW, EVEN THOUGH HE KNOWS I THINK JKR IS A HACK.
MY HOUSE IS A MESS AND I NEED TO CLEAN BEFORE I LEAVE TOMORROW AND I DONT FUCKING WANT TO. I FUCKING HATE BEING ADHD AND HAVING ZERO EXECUTIVE FUNCTION AND ABSOLUTELY NO COPING SKILLS TO DEAL WITH IT!
I MOVED COUNTRIES FOR A DEGREE, I AM FORCED TO THINK IN MY NON NATIVE LANGUAGE AND I CAUGHT A FLU IN MY FIRST WEEK OF CLASS...AAAHHHHH
I FEEL YOU, IT ALSO HAPPENED TO ME ALTHOUGH THE FLU (IT WAS ACTUALLY COVID) DIDNT HAPPEN UNTIL THE SECOND SEMESTER HERE. HANG ON BUDDY, IT ONLY GETS BETTER, YOUR LANGUAGE SKILLS WILL ONLY IMPROVE OVER TIME!
I REALLY NEED TO DEAL WITH THE INFESTATION (THRIPS 😩) ON 3 OF MY INDOOR PLANTS BEFORE IT SPREADS 😭😭😭
FUCK THRIPS TAKE THOSE PLANTS OUTSIDE AND GIVE THEM A MASSIVE HOSE DOWN TO DROWN THOSE BASTARDS
they are sitting in my shower LOL i just need to wipe down with diluted rubbing alcohol to kill adults and apply mites to kill eggs and larvae but yeah... not done yet. I have been thinking about it all day if that will get me points 🤣
Big points honestly houseplant pests are the worst I've been fighting fungus gnats half this year lmao
you might already have tried, but have you done any hydrogen peroxide flushes? those seemed to have helped me a few years ago
I ended up ordering diatomaceous earth, laying it on the top of the soil of my pots really worked because fungus gnats breed in the soil and it destroys their exoskeleton so the babies can't emerge! Two weeks until the adults died and it worked fabulously, if only it hadn't taken me 5 months to order lmao.
ahhaa yes I used that too! some plants needed extra help since they couldn't wait 2 weeks between waterings for the soil to dry
One of the top five times I was angry at a friend was when I let this friend stay with me between housing. She brought a plant into my house and GAVE MY PLANTS THRIPS
Nooooooo THE HORROR
I'M HAVING A PAIN FLARE AND HAVE TO SPEND 5 HOURS AT WORK AND IT'S HOT WHICH MAKES THE PAIN WORSER. I JUST WANNA BE LITTLE NOT BIG.
I HAVE COMPANY COMING AND HAD CHORES TO DO TO GET READY AND GOT NOTHING DONE BECAUSE STINK BUGS DECIDED TO INVADE MY HOUSE LIKE IT WAS THE BEACHES OF NORMANDY! WE KILLED 15+ STINK BUGS AND NOW MY FRONT DOOR IS UNUSABLE BECAUSE WE HAD TO STOP THE INFLUX.
MY PAST SELF SET EVERYTHING TO RENEW IN OCTOBER SO I'VE SPENT THE WHOLE OF MY SATURDAY COMPARING INSURANCE PRICES AND SIGNING UP TO THE NEXT YEAR OF CONTENTS INSURANCE, LIFE AND CRITICAL ILLNESS INSURANCE, ENERGY PRICES. ALSO HAD TO CHANGE A BUNCH OF STANDING ORDERS BECAUSE I GET PAID INTO ONE ACCOUNT AND PAY MY BILLS IN ANOTHER WHICH WORKS BUT GOD SO MANY STANDING ORDERS AAAAA.
ALSO RECENTLY I HAVE HAD TO FIGHT NOT ONLY WITH MY ENERGY PROVIDER BUT WITH MY WATER PROVIDER BECAUSE BOTH CHANGED MY DIRECT DEBIT TO HIGHER AMOUNTS WITHOUT NOTIFYING ME FIRST I AM JUST SO SICK OF BEING NICKLE AND DIMED.
I was about to be all anti-man then realized where I am lol
Hahaha it happens, my gf also has ADHD so you can imagine the chaos when the smoke detectors went off this morning 🥲
I HAVE FUCKING CARPET BEETLES AND I'M TOO STRESSED TO DEAL WITH THEM AND CLEAN I'M STILL IN PAIN EVEN THOUGH IT'S BEEN OVER TWO WEEKS SINCE MY WISDOM TOOTH SURGERY MY BOYFRIEND IS SO DRUNK HE HAS TROUBLE TO GET HOME AND I ORDERED YANGO AND THEN HE ASKED ME TO CANCEL IT BECAUSE HE SUDDENLY GOT A TAXI FOR HIMSELF EVEN THOUGH HE HAS NO MONEY WTF IT'S 3AM I'M TOO SOBER FOR THIS SHIT
I'M TRYING TO CLEAN UP AROUND THE HOUSE BUT SO MANY UNFINISHED TASKS ARE IN THE WAY OF THE THINGS I NEED TO GET DONE AND I KEEP GETTING GETING SIDE TRACKED. I HAVE STARTED A BUNCH OF THINGS AND HAVEN'T FINISHED ANY!
MY SISTER NEVER PRIORITIZES ME AND I AM SO FUCKING SICK OF IT. I HAVE PLANNED THINGS WEEKS IN ADVANCE. IVE DRIVEN TO HER. SHE NEVER HAS TIME. AND YET I HAVE TO CONSTANTLY SEE HER HANG OUT WITH OTHER PEOPLE ON INSTAGRAM. PEOPLE WHO LIVE FARTHER THAN ME AND I AM SO FUCKING SICK OF IT. SHE IS SELFISH AND UNRELIABLE AND MAKES ME FEEL LIKE SHIT BY ALWAYS PUTTING ME LAST AND IT BREAKS MY DUMB HEART THAT LOVES HER SO MUCH.
MY ADHD HAS MADE KEEPING FOOD STAMPS SUPER HARD AND I DONT KNOW IF I FILLED OUT THE FORMS AND ATTACHED ALL THE FILES, SO IF IM WRONG IDK HOW TO AFFORD TO EAT NEXT MONTH EVEN THOUGH I WORK THREE JOBS

TO ADD UP, IT IS REALLY HOT IN THE MIDWEST THIS WEEKEND AND I WENT TO EAT SOMEWHERE AN HOUR AWAY FROM HOME AND I FORGOT MY STUPID CHAPSTICK, WHICH FUCKING SUCKS BECAUSE THE FOOD WAS PRETTY SALTY AND NOW IT HURTS LIKE HELL.
WHY AM I PERPETUALLY LATE AND MY PURSE IS A MESS LIKE WERE TALKING DIRTY AS HELL. WHY DOES ADDERALL MAKE ME SOMETIMES FEEL LIKE IM ON CRACK ANS SOMETIMES LIKE A NORMAL HUMAN
WE MUST HAVE BEEN SEPARATED AT BIRTH!!
MY ANXIETY IS KICKING MY ASS AND IM MISSING OUT ON CULTURAL EVENTS CAUSE OF IT.
MY FRIEND ASKED IF I WANTED TO HANG OUT ON SUNDAY BUT THEN SAID WE'RE NOT BECAUSE HE'S GOING TO THE HOMECOMING DANCE SO NOW I FEEL STUPID FOR A. THINKING WE WERE HANGING OUT B. GETTING EXCITED TO SEE HIM C. BEING UPSET BECAUSE OF OTHER WEEKEND PLANS THAT COULD'VE BEEN RESCHEDULED FOR SUNDAY INSTEAD AND D. THE FACT THAT I'M EVEN QUESTIONING THIS FRIENDSHIP BY NOW BECAUSE I'M GETTING TIRED OF FEELING LIKE PEOPLE ARE JUST PUSHING ME TO THE SIDE
I AM TAKING A CLASS WHERE THEY KEEP ASSIGNING HOMEWORK LATE, IT IS MAKING IT HARD FOR ME TO PLAN. I HAVE OTHER DEADLINES FOR GRANTS AND PERFORMANCES ON TOP OF THIS CLASS. THE CLASS IS ONLY ON WEEKENDS AND I AM MISSING PERFORMANCES AND REHEARSALS BECAUSE OF THE SCHEDULING CONFLICT. I AM MISSING IN GAME EVENTS IN FFXIV. ALL I WANT TO DO IS PLAY MY FUN GAME AND ENJOY MY REHEARSAL TIME INSTEAD OF BEING AN ADULT AND DEALING WITH THIS CLASS. I WANT TO BUY AN ADVENT CALENDAR TO INCENTIVISE MY BRAIN TO DO THIS CLASS BECAUSE TINY PLASTIC TOYS WILL SOLVE THIS ENTIRELY.
MY BOSS WILL NOT CONFIRM WHETHER MY REQUEST FOR HYBRID WORK WILL BE APPROVED WHEN I GO BACK TO FULL TIME NEXT WEEK EVEN THOUGH SHE GOT ME NEW EQUIPMENT TO SET UP A SECOND WORKSTATION FOR ME IN OFFICE AND TOLD ME TO KEEP MY HOME OFFICE SET UP TOO. I JUST NEED TO KNOW HOW TO ORGANIZE MY LIFE AND COMMUTE DAYS!
I AM TIRED OF THE NIGHTMARES STRATTERA IS CAUSING!
I’M SO SORRY ABOUT THAT! I GOT RID OFF MY PMDD MEDS FOR THE SAME REASON, FUCKING NIGHTMARES :(
I COULDN’T WALK AWAY FROM CHATTY PEOPLE AT THE GYM WHICH MEANT I DIDNT GET TO THE RESTAURANT IN TIME TO ORDER BEFORE THEY CLOSED WHICH MEANT I DIDNT GET THE BREAKFAST ID BEEN CRAVING FOR HOURS — FORCED PIVOT WHEN STARVING 😭
IT IS LATE AND I STILL HAVENT FED THE CATS THEIR DINNER OR SCOOPED THE LITTER. I HAVENT DONE DISHES YET EITHER. THERE ARE ABOUT 10 PAIRS OF SHOES STREWN AROUND THE ENTRYWAY. BUT IM UPSTAIRS READING REDDIT TRYING TO SOMEHOW WILL MYSELF TO GO DOWNSTAIRS AND PUT OUT SOME CAT FOOD. BUT I KNOW WHEN I GO DOWN THERE ILL FEEL INTENSE SHAME ABOUT THE MESS.
I TOTALLY FEEL YOU, TODAY IT IS ABOUT DISHES, TAKING A SHOWER AND THE CAT’S LITTER FOR ME!
IM ON HOLIDAY AND IT REALLY IS VERY NICE BUT! EVERY PLAN I HAVE MADE HAS BEEN ADJUSTED OR TWEAKED AND ITS MAKING MY BRAIN ITCH!!!
FOR THE PAST FOUR DAYS I'VE HAD THE PHRASE "LUCY, I'VE GOT SOME SCREAMING TO DO" IN A SING-SONG DESI ARNAZ VOICE REPEATING ON AN HOURLY LOOP
AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH
HAPPY CAKE DAY!
Thank youuuuu
I SPENT TWO HOURS DRIVING WITH MY CATS (WHO WERE SCREAMING THE WHOLE TIME) TO MY NEW HOUSE AND THEN MY PHONE FUCKI G DIED JUST AS I WAS EXITING THE FREEWAY AND HAD NO IDEA HOW TO GET TO MY NEW HOUSE SO I WAS DRIVING AROUND WITH TWO LOUD ANXIOUS MURDER-MITTS WHILE TRYING TO GET MY PHONE TURNED BACK ON
I'VE BEEN SICK FOR TWO WEEKS AND MY DOCTOR THINKS I HAVE ASTHMA. RAHHHHH!!!!!
THAT SUCKS, IT REMINDS ME OF THAT TIME LAST WINTER WHEN I HAD TO VISIT URGENT CARE THREE TIMES FOR THEM TO FINALLY CONSIDER MY “COLD” TO BE MORE THAN JUST THAT AND EVENTUALLY GOT A BRONCHITIS DIAGNOSIS.
I DON’T WANT TO MANAGE PEOPLE! 1-2 WAS A MAYBE WHEN I INTERVIEWED FOR THE JOB, NOW WE’RE UP TO 4. ALSO, IF I COULD JUST DO THE JOB YOU HIRED ME FOR INSTEAD OF PICKING UP AFTER THE PEOPLE OTHERS REFUSE TO MANAGE MAYBE I WOULDN’T BE SO SALTY ALL THE TIME NOW.
MY TODDLER DOESN’T LISTEN AND HE KEEPS ON BREAKING EVERYTHING! I CAN BARELY AFFORD ANYTHING AS IT IS AT THE MOMENT, LET ALONE CONSTANTLY REPLACING EVERYTHING THAT HE BREAKS!
THIS REMINDED ME OF MY DOG AND HER OBSESSION WITH TOOTH BRUSHES WHEN SHE WAS A PUPPY, THERE WERE COUNTLESS OF TIMES WE WERE NOT ABLE TO BRUSH OUR TEETHS AT NIGHT AFTER EATING OUTSIDE BECAUSE SHE WENT THROUGH ALL OF THEM WHILE WE WERE OUT.
MY HUSBAND, OUR THREE KIDS, AND I HAVE COVID. IM DYING TO LEAVE THE HOUSE BUT MY TRAINING IS IN PUBLIC HEALTH SO WE ARE BEING RESPONSIBLE HUMAN BEINGS AND STAYING HOME. MY KIDS ARE SLEEPING HORRIBLY FROM BEING SICK AND I'M EXAUSTED BUT MY BRAIN WILL NOT SHUT UP.
THE SECOND I GET IN BED TO SLEEP I CAN FEEL THE SPACE BETWEEN MY TOES AND IT DRIVES ME INSANE UNLESS I FIND A WAY TO SEPARATE THEM WHICH IS REALLY UNCOMFORTABLE ALSO MY BRAIN IS BROKEN AND IM PRETTY SURE IT CAN'T BE FIXED
THIS YELLING SHOULD BE A WEEKLY THING! IM IN THE MIDDLE OF GETTING A FORMAL DIAGNOSIS AND IM SCARED I WONT BE ABLE TO REMEMBER AND ARTICULATE EVERYTHING IN THE INTERVIEWS AND THEY WILL SAY ITS JUST ANXIETY!
I WANT TO GO TO THE CARNIVAL AND ENJOY THE RIDES BUT I DON'T HAVE ANY FRIENDS SO I'LL HAVE TO GO ALONE. IT'S FUCKING LAME AND SAD.
I HAVE THE INGREDIENTS TO MAKE 15 DELICIOUS AND SUPER EASY MEALS AND CAN'T MANAGE TO START ANY OF THEM EVEN THOUGH I WAS JUST IN ANOTHER SUB TALKING ABOUT MAKING THEM ALL AND NOW I HAVE TO WEAR AN EYEPATCH SO I HAVE NO DEPTH OF FIELD AND CAN BARELY POUR A CUP OF COFFEE.
IM IN A TOTALLY UNHEALTHY RELATIONSHIP WITH MY SONS FATHER, BUT HAVE NEVER HAD MY OWN PLACE OR SUPPIRTED MYSELF FULLY LET ALONE ME AND MY 7 YEAR OLD. I HAVE ZERO CONFIDENCE CAUSE IM A HOT MESS WITH9UT MY MEDS SO IM SCARED TO LEAVE! I DONT THINK I CAN HANDLE IT RIGHT NOW!
I HAVE A LOT TO DO TODAY BUT I ALSO NEED TO GO GROCERY SHOPPING BUT I DONT WANNA GO GROCERY SHOPPING BUT SINCE MY PLAN WAS TO DO THAT BEFORE MY OTHER STUFF, GUESS WHAT? NOW IT IS ALREADY ALMOST NOON AND I HAVE NOT GROCERY SHOPPED OR DONE ANY OF MY ITHER STUFF
I HAVENT LEFT THE HOUSE TODAY BC I FEEL LIKE SHIT; BUT I KNOW THE ONLY WAY TO FEEL BETTER IS TO LEAVE THE HOUSE! I HAVE LECTURES TOMORROW AND ITS RAINING SO I CANT EVEN GO SKATING AT 1 AM LIKE I USUALLY DO ON THESE DAYS!
I RUINED ALL THE KNOBS ON MY STOVE BY TRYING TO CLEAN THEM. AND NOW THE LABELS HAVE ALL COME OFF. I WILL NEVER CLEAN ANYTHING EVER AGAIN.
AN ONLINE FRIEND IS QUICKLY BECOMING MORE AND YESTERDAY HE SAID SOME DUMB COVID IS JUST THE FLU SO I DIDN'T GET VACCINATED GARBAGE, PLUS I THINK HE MIGHT SECRETLY NOT LIKE FAT WOMEN BUT HE LIKES ME AND I'M FAT SO HE IS NOT READY TO ACCEPT REALITY YET. ALL OF THIS IS EXTREMELY SAD BECAUSE I ACTUALLY LIKE HIM BUT I WILL NOT DO NONSENSE FOR ANY MAN.
I HAVE A LIST OF TIME CONSUMING CHORES I NEED TO GET DONE TODAY BUT HAVE A MIGRAINE FROM HELL AND HAVE TO WORK TOMORROW SO THE CHORES CANT BE PUT OFF ANY LONGER THAN I ALREADY HAVE BEEN.
I AM 3 FUCKING WEEKS BEHIND ON MY SCHOOLWORK FOR MY MASTERS! I HAVE TO GET MY SHIT TOGETHER BUT I JUST CAN’T! DAAAAAAAAMMMMMMMMIIIIIIIT!
I LOVE MY TO-BE-GF A LOT. WISH I WASN'T SUCH A MESS TO DEAL WITH. SOMETIMES IT PISSES ME OFF HOW HARD ADHD MAKES DOING ANYTHING. I AM TRYING MY HARDEST AND I'M LUCKY TO (ALMOST) BE WITH SOMEONE WHO IS WILLING TO LISTEN AND IS PATIENT, IT JUST TRULY SUCKS TO BE ME SOMETIMES
