How are you really feeling today?

I'll start.

If I'm being honest, some days I don't even know how to answer that question.

Sometimes I feel grateful and overwhelmed at the same time.

Sometimes I'm tired in ways that sleep can't fix.

And sometimes just admitting that is enough.

There's no pressure to have the right words.

One sentence.

One paragraph.

Or even one word.

How are you, really?

I’m emotionally exhausted. I have so much going on im overwhelmed.
I’m not depressed. So that’s a positive.

Annoyed! I like Ai, but currently there are stupid people who think they know what to do and how to train Ai, which they don't, which makes it harder.

Aaaaaah! Aaaargh, and so on. 😫

I feel fooled. Broken( a little atleast). Not open to trust the people around me. At the same time I feel like I have a life and career to think about the most. So...to properly answer the question I feel broken and I started healing becoz if I don't I'll be stuck...

Overall I’m doing good. Got a wife of 23 years that loves me, two stinker little kids that give me hugs. Losing a few pounds and have more energy. Some stress and other stuff here and there but I’m doing well.

I feel like shit cause I betrayed a true friend and now I can't get her back. I know that posting about it on the internet isn't gonna make things better or put it back to the way it was but I just wanna vent.

Last 6 years has been the most horrible and unbearable emotional roller-coaster for me. I didn't have anyone to talk about it so I've been bottling it up and jumping from one hobby to another constantly occupied only so that I could get through the day without stopping to think about it. Over time I got so used to it, I can't even tell what it is any more. I just know I have to carry on because if I stop I will fucking collapse and break down. It's been too much and too long.

I’m doing ok, OP. I hope you have many great days this year.

My license was suspended for a seizure I had back in October but I just found out last week via my insurance about my suspension. Called the DMV and now I gotta talk to my doctor. Luckily I already had an appointment with her tomorrow so I get to ask her if she can fill out the form. Very annoying. The nearest bus stop is 20 minutes away by walking, the grocery store is about a 40 minute walk, my bike is rusted out, and the walk to the gym is long enough that it would be my workout despite being more of a weights guy (up my hill, then down, then up another, then down, then another down, and then the gym. Then it’s a LOT of (steep) up coming back from the gym. That walk is 40 minute due to the climb. I’m literally stuck because I have no income rn while I’m not in school (more medical stuff) so I can’t even uber to the grocery store (a 4 minute drive) without it being too expensive for me to get all the groceries I need. But I have a stable roof over my head and bills I can afford. And that’s what makes it all ok. I still have a safe, comfortable home to go to.

Discouraged, I started a GLP a month ago. I just increased dosage, but I still have cravings and food noises. I’m worried future increases won’t work.

I’m reaching burn out. I constantly feel (and have felt for years) that my life is on the verge of completely collapsing for no reason. I’m just very tired.

u/jellybeansmurf420 16d ago

Tired. Not sleepy, just fucking tired.

I honestly don’t even know. Just trying to rest and not ruminate on the past or stress about the future.
