I’m really struggling with life. I’m recovering from surgery, can’t do much, I’m in the middle of bankruptcy, I work with COVID patients at work, I’m starting nursing school, a friend who committed suicide. It’s all been a lot for me. I feel like I’m a problem and annoying. Others act like I’m being dramatic and brush me off.

Doesn't sound like you are being dramatic. That's a lot! I don't blame you for feeling stressed out, one of those things would be a real challenge. Let alone all. You don't sound like a problem or annoying. I'm happy to listen if you wanna share more. Sounds like you could use am ear

Thank you. I’m really struggling. Not being able to do much and just laying around is what’s hardest for me. I just lay there and think. Friends seem distant and I feel like I’m a problem. My spouse has their own stress and just keeps telling me not to worry about things it will all work out. It just feels like a lot. When I’m focused on something I’m okay. But I feel that’s pushing it all off

That sounds like a lot, and I'd like to say that your not dramatic and I'm sorry people aren't understanding enough to see that. If your looking for things to distract yourself with, I recommend podcast/meditation help audios/and maybe music. Sometimes you just need to do something that'll make you forget for a little bit, you know?

It’s good to have a spouse that is positive. It can also make things hard if it feels like your issues are being brushed off. What o you mean by ‘feels like I’m a problem’? Also, I’m guessing it’s hard to get the energy to go from one focused thing to the next, like maybe your motivation do to the next thing is inhibited?

Hum. What are some of those things that you focus on? How do you inspire yourself to move to the next thimg? What do you care about and how do you want to be remembered by those around you?
