When have you been mentally and physically worn out?

1 Answer

Answer :

I was mentally and physically exhausted for years working in retail. Way more physical than mental in that situation. ********* time was the worst. I felt hit by a truck daily for weeks. My body ached, not enough sleep. Then, for a few years during that I had an illness and suffered chronic pain. I’m not talking about the aches, I mean real discomfort that truly interfered with my life. The mental stress of trying to find fixtures to help me made me incredibly anxious on a daily basis. I wasn’t suicidal, but when I became really afraid of a treatment, I would just say, “if I die I’m miserable anyway.” That’s how I got through treatments that I felt might really harm me. I was willing to risk dying to try to feel better. More recently I’ve been mentally and physically challenged with all the stressful things my husband and I have gone through the last few years. More mental this time. I hate it so much. I’m trying not to worry so much, and just hold my nose and jump in. That means signing documents I’m unsure of, spending money I’m unsure of, all sorts of things I do that I don’t want to do. I have wondered what am I supposed to do? I just keep moving forward, trying to carve the happiest niche I can for myself with what I deal with now. I’m trying.
