What's Bothering You?

[ZeldaCrossing64]

Spoiler: Petty I Guess

Three of my online friends are all talking to me at once and I'm feeling overwhelmed. I don't wanna tell them "leave me alone and stop talking to me" so I just give half-hearted responses while trying to focus on a drawing. I feel like a crap friend for thinking like this but I'd rather just be alone right now.

My brother just went into my room to tell me that our March break is already halfway done and it put me in a bad mood. Just goes to show how angry I easily get.

I'm also so close to just giving up on my art challenge. I'm over halfway through, but I'm losing interest. I don't wanna stop now but I just feel like I have better things to do. I've drawn most of my favorite Miis already so I don't really have much of a drive anymore.

They're cutting down trees in front of our building, and it's extremely loud. It's also sad and frustrating because 3/5 of the trees they're removing aren't even dead or dying. They're just removing them.

I've been a blue collar working man since I graduated high school over 10 years ago and idk if I can keep doing it. I recently started ocd meds and everytime I try to go back to work it unravels the progress I've made with my mental health. I'm thinking about applying to minimum wage jobs just so I can have some income while I sort things out. If I do that, I won't be able to keep up with my hours as a longshoreman and I'll lose my seniority. Why is making decisions so hard

yeah one of our neighbors across the street just removed the tree in their front yard a week or so ago. a perfectly healthy tree, and now it's gone. It provided a nice amount of shade to the street in front of their house during spring/summer and now there's just gonna be an empty space of uninterrupted sunrays. idk it makes me feel really sad.

this honestly hits so close to home and it's an unfortunate reality. I'm sorry to hear you're dealing with that. I can definitely relate, I had to quit my last job bc of how horribly it was affecting my mental health. and I really want to go back to work so I can have an income, but I'm scared it's gonna undo all the progress I'm making trying to get better. hopefully you can find something that works for you soon.

Yeah, it sucks because the trees protected this part of the building from a lot of light pollution that comes off of the highway nearby. A LOT of people living here are furious. I have no idea why the owner/management company did this.

No job is worth destroying your mental (or even physical) health for, unless you're making disgusting amounts of money to where you can brute force it for a short amount of time in order to reach some sort of life-changing goal because you're swimming in the cash. I was working for this one job that had me on my feet 12-15 hours a day, 6 days a week, sometimes having the schedules overlap so you didn't have a day off for almost two weeks. I'm really good at working through stress and rarely break under even the most immense pressure, but I finally did one night when I was in an Uber home at 2 AM, thinking I was off the next day, and then I double-checked my schedule... I had to be back at 6:30 AM, and I just started crying. I realized right then and there that it was way too unhealthy, and I never went back to the job. I've never not given a 2-week notice, but that place didn't deserve one.

Everyone at work has reached that point that the adrenaline of the cyclone and emergency response has worn off and now people are just…angry. We’re so under resourced that it’s not funny, and people are doing dodgy crap to get work done. And people are getting injured (both staff and the public, luckily nothing serious) due to dodgy crap.

We need more resource and there is resource out there but why isn’t anyone doing anything to help anyone??

 

[frogslime]

Ough my chem partner hardly did anything at all for a major project so I’m doing 90% of it past its due date

There’s a hole in the wall in the apartment building I’m staying at. I’ve never seen anything like that. Now there will be notes on everyone’s door about it, lmao.

I feel like I've been gaslighted by this new doctor I just went too. Basically I tried my best to explain the medications I'm taking and trying to explain my past medical history but this new doctor is just becoming too dismissive saying things like "Well we have to do our work here so your medical records won't help because of how outdated it is" I mean what? This doctor doesn't know anything about me and already I am annoyed.

Then as if that wasn't bad she decided to fat shame saying about how much weight I have even though I keep trying to tell her that I've been excercising, cutting down on calories and eating healthy foods, but then she has to give me the same darn boring lecture about how consuming too much junk food is "bad" for you. Like gee as if I haven't heared that 500 times.

Finally at the end she tells me to come back in 3 months for blood work just to see how stuff is going with my blood results. I keep trying to tell her to see my past lab results to get a good idea of what is going on with me but she becomes dismissive saying "Well its not going to help because I need to see updated blood results to get a better idea of what treatment to give you". After when my appointment was done I just went home and screamed in frustration. Who would've thought getting a new doctor would be this difficult?

It’s snowing heavily and all public transport has been suspended so that’s another day off work for me. Oh and one of my cat’s cystitis has flared up as well and I can’t take her to vets because of the snow.

Today is going to be a long day.

writing affirmations is already difficult, and telling them to myself is honestly kinda painful. it's hard to believe good things about yourself when the most important people in your life want you to believe otherwise.

I ****ing hate minors lol but I guess it’s my own fault because I let them use me for alcohol in exchange for friendship. I will never be friends with another minor again. I just can’t trust them or my dumbass not to let them use me. They’re so immature and are not good people to be friends with. I can’t do it anymore.

Lol like I said, they will NOT BE TRUSTED. I had another panic attack thanks to one of them.

i volunteered to work with a group of kids in my school. it's a great opportunity (since i'm going into the education field when i leave high school) but i'm very nervous about it!

Take all the time you need. Leaving a job, especially one you've been at for a while, is a big decision. I hope things work out for you.

I want to message my favorite person I cried at work today but I don’t want to burden her.

Sick of people taking the blame for something others actually did. This world is so messed up.
