Once again, let’s be human and check in with each other.

How are you doing? How do you feel about the week behind you and the one ahead of you? Any rants or raves? Share whatever feels right!

Discussion can be about ADHD or off-topic.

As I am not a mod of this community, I do not have the capacity to pin this post. I plan on making a post on Sundays where we can check in throughout the week as needed.

Please let me know if there is a better way of doing this - any ideas are welcome :). Grateful to be a part of this community.

Goodness, it sounds like you've been going through a lot. Do you feel burnt out? I used to think "burnt out" meant tired, but then I learned it has other symptoms, like being cynical, feeling helpless, diminished creativity, an inability to embrace complexity, and a sense that you can never do enough. Then I was like "OH, I'm really burnt out and have been for a while, I need a break."

And I totally get that life doesn't necessarily give us breaks, but all of this is just to say, try to be gentle with yourself. It's OK if you can't be your 100% right now. No one would be able to if they were in your shoes. Here's to things getting better!
