Even things you know are small or things that shouldn't be a big deal are just overwhelming. Like at work God help me when I try to get my tasks done in between customers. I am constantly interrupted by their presence and need for assistance that I start getting angry because I am like Pavlov's dog. I got so used to getting chewed out for not being able to finish tasks in between customers through the years. They acted as if I should be able to be in 2 places at once doing the job of 3 people as 1 person or else I was considered lazy and lacking in time management skills. It's impossible to be at one end of the building doing my tasks AND dealing with customers in various other places at the same time. So now that I have managers who don't do that to me I have to keep reminding myself that these newer people are more understanding and have the common sense to know these things. That I won't be chewed out for doing my job. And it's hard to get out of those motions when you've dealt with it for years. It's given me the habit of absolutely being frustrated when I don't finish something. Even at home if I'm in the middle of cleaning and organizing I get frustrated when my husband physically stops me for a hug or kiss and then it makes me feel bad for getting mad that my groove was messed up so I have to apologize to him. And he'll even ask me to bring him something/do something he knows I'm busy. Like can I NOT just finish what I was doing before being made to cater to other people? Even when my mother was alive this drove me nuts. Now that we are getting busier at work this is escalating so bad I feel like I'm losing my mind.
Or is this actually normal to be frustrated about constant interruptions and I'm downplaying myself? Need an actual analysis of this because even my introspection says I'm not even touching this one.

1. Yeah, I've been pretending to be a straight cis male for 14 years and that doesn't even scratch the surface
2. can't stress this enough. For example, I cleaned the entire house of 4 people, 4 dogs, and a cat, for no pay. I never get rewarded for anything I do, so what's the point?
3. I'm not old enough to have a say in anything in my life, so with abusive parents and absurd amounts of work I can't do anything. I can't even call CPS because my parents monitor my phone and will see that I called a number they don't know.
4. I wake up at 7 on weekdays and 1 on weekends, I go to bed at 1 on weekdays and 3-5 on weekends. I don't think I need to say more
5. I have school 8 hours a day, not including homework, and a ton of chores to do when I get home. Not to mention band requires so much of my time, and I hate band.
6. eh, I've never had control anyway. I do what people say I need to do and that's that. If I'm feeling depressed or angry that's to damn bad. If I step one foot outta line I get in trouble big time. So I'm not even allowed to be angry or sad unless I'm truly alone, which is never because my parents always feel a need to watch everything I do and they are always home. The only time I'm even remotely close to alone is at night, hence the bad sleep
conclusion: Im fine and everything is fine why would you ever think Im not fine because Im totally fine
ok but what are some coping mechanisms? Ive been without one for 14 years and just coping isnt working anymore, I need a way to help myself before shit goes down

People will not listen and omg Ive will get drained wth all the noise. The answer is blowing in the wind. Turn off the news. Put energy where it needed the most. Gn fruitcake lady has left the building. Times a precious thing to waste and too much of it ( jus for today I Will not repeat. But. Serenity prayer desiterada and love is patient and kind and Adai. If they didnt hear you the first time. They are never going to. People do exactly as they want.

I have a friend who emotionally drains me so much, that I dont have energy to respond to her texts which just makes me ignore her. However, she gets really mad at me for it even though I told her how I drained I got around her. She said she just wanted me to tell her when I was taking a break, but when I did, she got mad at me for taking them so often. The problem is, she talks to me for hours everyday so I need breaks and she basically just gets mad at me for taking them when I dont feel like responding to the 30 messages she sends at a time. Its exhausting.

I have a great career as a registered nurse, but it's very stressful and demanding. The days I'm off work, I feel mentally drained. My mind is exhausted. This combined with my epilepsy can be very difficult to manage. It's like I'm a cell phone, I need to charge up by sleeping just so I can be an efficient nurse when I'm at work.

You still have to know some stuff in school but a lot of subjects in school seem just pointless. Like I tired telling my friend that its like that but when u try to provide an example u cant think of any. But you know a lot of examples of subjects you know you most likely wont use

I feel like the opposite can be true for number one as well. I myself am not afraid to be who I am, but sometimes I feel like myself isn't often enough, or that the fact I'm not doing normal teen stuff is often dissapointing and causing my lack of life companions.

Been chasing promotion at work but was able to have a solid schedule and workout routine. Best shape of my life. Then I got the promotion and havent had time for anything other than work. Losing all my progress. Was it worth it?

Me! I'm emotionally drained. Spiritually as well. Started high energy supplements etc as well to keep up. Now I'm angry, lashing out, etc. I believe I am in desperate need of a break. Rest, and peace.

I came here coz I am tired with everything. It sucks that you can't even confide with your close friends coz you get used to keeping everything to yourself.

Honestly I came for confirmation because these days after school I just sit there on the bus doing nothing. Like simultaneously tired and overwhelmed?

I feel like Im a lot happier when alone. Being at home with my cats, running errands alone. . People do force you to wear a mask & it IS exhausting.

Yeah, I don't find anything funny anymore. It's hard to pretend emotions that you haven't felt in a long time. I just want to feel a bit more.
