I am currently feeling overwhelmed with life, nothing seems to be going right, I feel like my life is not fulfilling. My work environment is very stressful and toxic and I can’t afford to leave my job without plan B. I have been looking for work non stop with no luck.
I feel so lonely, I just ended things my boyfriend because he never had time for me when I needed him, always shutting me out and not letting me to express myself without him saying I’m dramatic or being extra.
I feel tired and drained most of the time, I sometimes struggle to sleep due to overthinking and stressing. I feel like nothing is working out in my life. I am not happy at all, I cry myself to sleep almost everyday.

Your post really resonated with me. I'm feeling a lot of the same ways you are, just on a bit of a different timeline perhaps. My boyfriend of over ten years broke things off with me a couple years ago in the middle of the pandemic, and we remain living together because we can't afford to live on our own, we live in a really expensive area. I can honestly say that I haven't been happy since that point, and I too feel like nothing is going right in my life. My job is stressful, I don't hate it but I don't think it's healthy. I just feel stuck because I know I'll never make the money I'm making now elsewhere, and it's not all about the money but everything is just so astronomically expensive right now, I could never leave it without having a plan B, like you. I also barely sleep at night - I don't know about you but I tend to fall asleep easily (probably because I'm operating on a sleep deficit constantly) but then my brain wakes me up every couple of hours and won't shut off. All I do is ruminate. I feel like I don't have anyone to talk to because I don't have a ton of friends to begin with, no real family, and besides, who wants to hear depressing talk again and again? I just want to be happy again, and I'm sure you feel the same way. Hoping it gets better for us both, just know that you're not alone.
Hi sorry to hear you are struggling, life’s so hard sometimes, I had a complete melt down during the pandemic and just couldn’t cope with anything, I went on antidepressants which really helped me a lot, have you talked to someone about some meds, Try and take one step at a time not to feel too overwhelmed .
you are so young with all your life ahead of you, concentrate on yourself, don’t worry about your b/f, you can do this😘
I’m glad that I joined this community. My day was much better and I am taking things one step at a time and trying not to be too hard on myself. Thank you everyone for your messages, they really do mean a lot 🙂
