I’m starting to feel a bit burned out I think. Haven’t had a proper day off since July apart from the odd holiday. I’m starting to feel annoyed by people lol. I take public transport to work and I’m just instantly mad at everyone around me for making noise, being rude, whatever. At work I get confronted with poverty every day and it’s getting harder on my mental wellbeing I feel. I’m annoyed by things the party is doing and in the evenings I don’t have the energy to do anything.

Currently sitting on the train next to two girls being loud and annoying and I have to stop myself from yelling like a Karen I feel.

Also, I have been taking cold showers for like a year now and usually they are fine with a small mental step to take every morning, but the last two days I spend 5 minutes staring at my shower being unable to get into the cold water. I took a warm shower instead. Couldn’t get myself to do it due to stress.

I have a day off this week so maybe it helps.

People are rude, loud and inconsiderate. It’s not normal not to get annoyed by that. I hope you can get some rest still.

I hope you feel better after your day off. You have to think about your own health as well it is difficult to help others if you can’t help yourself. Also whenever I travel to anywhere I always have a headset and listen to music maybe it would help to feel less annoyed by your surroundings

To add onto what Oppo was saying, try getting noise-cancelling headphones or earplugs. They help me so much when taking public transportation.

And no other government besides Israel has criticized Lula’s speech.

Honeslty … Just posting arguments aganst them in with my .ml account so they cannont just hide behind blocking all grad accounts is very enlightening, they more or less ignore everything that is being said and keep trying to come up with a reason why it is not valid … never engaging

I do a lot of that with no expectation that I’ll change the particular person’s mind but rather for the larger audience.

It’s true. Arguing with someone whose mind is made up is to show those whose mind isn’t that there is a better, alternative way.

Type “:” and the first few letters and you should see a selection pop up. You can also find it in the “*” category in the emoji picker located above post/comment text areas.
