Mental Health Check In thread

Today was the poopy cherry on an already bad week. I am struggling mentally as everything professionally is so damn difficult, everything is negative and I am mentally worn out by it. It doesnt help that I am also tired of the team I am working in.

Hoping to get some space tonight so that I can hopefully feel better
 
Saturday was awful and my moods were crazy grouchy, I ended up sleeping most of the day in the end

Sunday was better and I got a few jobs done, yay!
 
I hate my brain. I hate being so stupid. I’m so tired of not being able to do such a basic thing to the point of ruining everything I’ve worked for. I’m so tired of this now 😖
You are not stupid, you are likely being worked hard and are tired. Be kind to yourself, and be patient with yourself 🫂
 
Feeling a bit dejected and despondent at the moment, with giving out dares by request and not receiving many acknowledgements that I have created it and only 1 (excellent) report so far. Also feel a bit invisible due to having no responses to any messenger threads I have posted in recently, and a bit invisible unless someone wants something from me. I know that probably isnt true, but its how my mind is processing it at the moment annoyingly.

Meh, roll on tomorrow.

I can completely understand the frustration of not getting reports from people. It is one of my biggest deterrents for giving out anything custom.

I am sorry you are feeling that way. Our minds can really play mean tricks on us. Please know that you are valued <3

Thank you! It is definitely the worst part of it, but when it goes well it is brilliant. Its a double edged sword sadly

Thank you, minds can suck at times. Thank you, you are very kind and valued too ❤️
 
I’m home after an awful night shift, I feel so unsupported and used and alone and bad. I’ve never felt so bad after a shift. I love my job but right now I just don’t want to go back.
I am so sorry lovely. You deserve to be treated way better than that. Just please know that you make a difference every single day, even on the bad days.
 
I struggle with this everyday of my life. No matter what I do it's never right. The only reason I wear female clothes is because I don't have a female in my life and I probably won't either. I have been told by females at bars that I would be better off committing s**cide
 
Lately I've been feeling... I guess stretched thin? Like I've had to expend too much of myself and there's not enough of me for where I'm needed. I'm constantly worn out and I think part of it is needing to be at work for so much time.

Sometimes I use kink as a coping mechanism, other times because I just genuinely happen to enjoy it. But at the end of the day, I just wish I felt rested when I woke up in the morning. :(

I can totally relate! Sometimes it’s really hard to prioritize sleep and even when we try to sleep we can’t. Hang in there!

It sounds like you are experiencing burnout IdaKiaria. Burnout can feel like a slog or like you are pushing away a boulder that doesn't budge. I completely understand the draw of using kink as a way to escape, and was literally just talking to another about this, but without self-care on top of kink, balance is at risk.

Is it realistic for you to take a brief leave from work to help reset your energy?
