it feels obvious when i say it out loud but please don't do this to yourself

though if you stop you're probably going to become trans. fair warning

Is that a thing lol, I burned out and quit my job, then realized I was a woman within a month.

[-] [email protected] 29 points 1 year ago

idk, i told myself to start respecting myself for the first time in my life and within 3 weeks my pronouns were she/her, so maybe?

Big undiagnosed autism/ADHD mood

If you want to summarise my internal experience in two images, it's that one and this one:

so relatable i started crying

[-] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago

Even understanding you have autism/ADHD doesn't rid yourself of this feeling, you're just better at forgiving yourself for it.

alternatively read Laziness Does Not Exist and Unlearning Shame and understand that it's okay to chill when your body is sending you signals that you need to rest

Hey comrade, I struggle with this. I found the first book, but I cannot find the second one you mentioned, by what author is it?

[-] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago

what do you do if your body always tells you to rest even if you rest

And don't get out of bed for weeks? doomjak

[-] [email protected] 23 points 1 year ago

I get home and either basically or literally go to bed. On my days off I just want to do the mindless light entertainment you usually would after work. Starting to look around and wonder if I got caught in a trap.

[-] [email protected] 20 points 1 year ago

Alternatively you could stop listening to coaches and those shitty self-improvement videos and all their equivalent.

>be on a multi-year 24/7 grindset

"Hey, can anyone explain to me why I have been reduced to a nub??"

[-] [email protected] 19 points 1 year ago

This was me my whole life until I got the one disease where pushing yourself literally causes muscle necrosis

[-] [email protected] 14 points 1 year ago

Damn that is such a good emodiment of how I feel during 90% of my free time.

[-] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago

are you my therapist because i just talked about this with her yesterday

[-] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago

One of the biggest game changers in my life was when my therapist noticed this in me, cause I surely didn't and still felt like I wasn't trying hard enough

[-] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago

I've been pushing myself in the wrong direction and now im lost.

[-] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

Awful feeling. You feel guilty because you feel like you're not doing enough, which kills your motivation, and it ends up trapping you in a cycle.

Me all of February. I was kind of a zombie for 2 straight weeks in March.

I've been so happy to get through last winter without any malaise. I definitely made changes to my diet and added in using a "happy light", and overall have felt like actively trying to counteract that feeling (specifically in terms of seasonal depression) has seemed to pay off. At the very least, I would suggest people who feel this way specifically in the winter should try depression lights and taking things like omega-3 supplements (or modifying your diet). Can't say its truly effective but anything helps Edit: also fiber intake. Supplementing fiber has pretty much eradicated my problems with IBS, and I've made serious effort to getting back into cooking and generally adding much more fiber into my diet

[-] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

this is me except I never push myself harder

Maybe, you need to pull harder instead!

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Have you tried just pushing a little harder? think-about-it
