Stressed about not having money. My seizure medication makes me exhausted to the point i have an even harder time going to the job i already hate, then gets me more stressed about how it sounds like an excuse for just being lazy.

Stress, especially about money, makes you tired. So it's got nothing to do with being lazy. I just switched medication because the old ones made me tired. It adds up quickly to feel debilitating IMO.

Nah you ain't lazy your just tired.

[–] HoneyRoasted 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I think the worst part is knowing it sounds like an excuse

Just believe in yourself even when you think you can't and it may just turn out okay.

You must be American if you think of yourself as lazy... Nobody else thinks that way.

[–] HoneyRoasted 1 points 7 months ago

Canadian. I’m 26 so i grew up with some old fashioned men that have that kind of mindset

I think I have ptsd from finally getting the last of my stuff out of my old apartment yesterday. It was horrendously difficult. It has left me with no desire to work today

[–] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Why are you moving ? I am thinking you don't want to ? What happened ?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (1 children)

I moved in with my parents for a bit. I need to pay down some debt and hopefully save for a house. Plus, they are old and it's pretty helpful for them to have me around

Are your folks not nice ? Like why the trauma ? Do you miss your apartment or freedom or something ?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 7 months ago (1 children)

My father is Batshit insane and refuses to get psychological help. He's literally Doctor Jekyll and Mister Hyde. But the trauma was just the difficulty of getting everything into my truck. I accumulated a LOT of stuff over the last 7 years, and yesterday was the absolute last day I had to finish.

I would advise you to take your mom and bolt but i don't know your situation well to do so.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

He's not physically violent, just filed with rage and vitriol 65% of the time, for absolutely no reason. Also he is 77. I can take him. I wish he would get violent, that way I could have him involuntarily committed for being a danger to others.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago

The whole ordeal sounds intense

[–] [email protected] 5 points 7 months ago (1 children)

DST SUX. Otherwise ok for a Monday. How are you?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

Pretty quiet at work for a Monday afternoon. Brushing up on some azure knowledge with YouTube.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 7 months ago

Ah the ordinery then

[–] [email protected] 5 points 7 months ago

Had a rough day yesterday. I woke up with the best of intentions but without 20 minutes my kids had beaten it out of me. The next 4-5 hour were pretty rough, although it did improve as we got through the afternoon. I need a breather, a break.

[–] berryjam 4 points 7 months ago

Bit stressed, body's not happy with the time change (daylight savings).

[–] [email protected] 4 points 7 months ago

I'm doing good, just waiting out the last of the cold days this year.

[–] themeatbridge 4 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Arthritis is flaring up, and I'm tired, but otherwise OK. How are you?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 7 months ago

Have seen better days and do take rest.

Hey i know him just can't get his name in my head right now

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

Meh, didn't realize it was DST until I woke up and my roommate with an old school clock was an hour behind. So I guess I lost some sleep. Other than that I'm doing alright, wish I was baked though 😂

[–] Jackthelad 2 points 7 months ago (2 children)

Stressing about a job interview tomorrow. 😬

[–] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago

Eh just give your best even if it is really bad

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

Best of luck!
I’ll be rooting for you!

After half a week of traffic issues, was finally able to do my preferred form of exercising this morning, feeling pretty good now!
