These past weeks were extremely draining, some days I literally feel like a zombie getting through the day. I need something to distract my mind and get me to focus on my life. How do you manage through chaos called life?
What exactly is the problem?
The CR.
You do sound very frustrated, overwhelmed and depressed.
Did these decisions impact your everyday life, or your long-term goals?
I think many people might feel upset if things they thought they had under control were to suddenly swing out of control.
I do not think it’s just you.
This is a very busy and often stressful time of year with a lot happening at once. Hopefully it’s only temporary and things will get back to normal for you. Good luck 🙂
popup, i completely understand you, but, like sharp said its a hard time of the year…. the people who are doin stuff without your permission, its probably not coming from a bad place. i dont know what you work/ do… but being that it is the beginning of the year they are probably anxious teo prove themselves and show their value. so just be very open to it and compliment them very often because otherwise it will just turn into open resentment…
hatzlacha in everything you do! hope it all works out ok
I know how you feel, I don’t feel like I’m coping at the moment,and I keep losing my patience with my 2 year old cause she is testing me to the limit
popup: Avoiding your feelings and trying to ignore them or cover them up with other things in your life, only makes them come out in other ways. If you have a Rav, mentor, therapist, friend, anyone you can talk about it with non-judgmentally, that might help you feel better.
If you are truly upset about something specific, perhaps ask advice on how to tell the people who upset you about how you feel without being confrontational. People don’t generally mean to be hurtful, they just don’t realize how their actions impact others, and will generally feel bad if they realize how much it hurt you, even if they can’t do anything about it.
This thread spent a bit of time right above the one titled “sometimes you just need to cry”. Everytime I saw the two together I felt like they belonged that way.
I sympathize completely. I don’t feel it at these times, I happen to be one of the crazy ones who loves three day Yom Tovim and having everything flying but I have times. Sometimes the pain (of whatever hurts) is so intense so I listen to hour after hour of shiurim. It gives me distraction but also chizuk. I do hide my pain, but not to everyone. I don’t always have the strength to say it outloud but I make sure someone knows where I’m holding.
As far as the general chaos of life, I don’t fight it, I just make sure it’s all contained and everyone is getting what they need.
Hatzlacha raba!!
