i’m falling behind at work bc i can only manage like 20-30 hours and i don’t even have any other responsibilities. i don’t have a social life or even keep my apartment clean or cook or anything but it feels like i constantly have no time.

    I imagine being mentally stable helps with it

    Idk I just kinda force myself to power through stuff last second even if it feels like absolute shit to do

    drugs, mental stability, and with some, discipline. i know people that overachieve at work but their home lives are a mess. the economy rn makes it worse too.

        vyvanse for me so ik. achieving anything is hard for me, esp because im like trans with medical hormonal disorders, or mental illness. i still live like a hoarder to szome extent, and i have issues with self care, but i learned over time to sort of ignore physical pain to a certain extent because i had to to get through owning a business or just work in general. and im telling you, i still feel the need to overcompensate despite doing the bare minimum of what i should be doing. do what you can, push when you can, but dont harp on yourself, because you have a lot on ur shoulders and it makes it harder to run a mile when weighed down to a crawl. i believe u can get thru this!!

            i think its just protective mind stuff, or just because if you are in a certain mindset like one that makes hypervigilance normal or emotional burnout commonplace ur brain and body sort of have to cut corners. make sure you try to eat “real” food and not just filler, get sleep, and drink water too. its easy to forget abt those and make it worse for yourself.
