Hello everybody, I wish you all a wonderful week 
Do you blame inaction on laziness or stubbornness rather than admit you are tired? 🤔
What you really might need is to be more compassionate with yourself.
A solution to recharge could be to take a walk to give yourself space and to begin to rebuild your energy.
Do you find it hard to take a break to reset? What is your solution?

@amiablePeace77
Do you find it hard to take a break to reset? What is your solution?
Yess it is hard to get my self care in lately. It feels like I am constantly on the go from the time I wake up to the time I go to sleep. I need to set boundaries of alone time for me during the day again and to keep that everyday so I do not burn out.
@pamharley003
Pam, hope you will make that time soon to prevent that burnout
This hit a nerve. I feel terribly guilty of I rest or take time to relax. It's mostly because I was berated as a child for doing it from people I knew and relatives. So it's still very difficult for me to admit I'm tired or I need a break. But I am dealing with it now, so when I need to I accept it and start reading or playing simple games so I can start relaxing.
@plumBeechwood7549
Something so wrong has been engrained into your brain as a child, hugs. I am glad you became aware of the reason you're not getting the self care you need and take action against it.
Hugs peace ❤️
@plumBeechwood7549
Thanks. Sending warm hugs your way 
@amiablePeace77
Do you find it hard to take a break to reset? ...What is your solution?
No, I don't find it at all hard to take a break. If I am feeling tired or like I've constantly been on the go all day etc.. Then I finish up what I'm doing in the moment, and take that time for myself. Whatever I decide to do. Whether its watch TV, cuddle with my dog, get online etc... I just do it.
@PoliteOcean
Awesome PoliteOcean, you seem to be truly connected to your body and listen to its needs.
@amiablePeace77 Do you find it hard to take a break to reset? Yes I do because I want to help people.
What is your solution? I go sit on the patio with no electronics
@Misty72
That's a smart way to set boundaries for yourself! It's wonderful that you are so compassionate but please keep on being compassionate to yourself too.
Do you blame inaction on laziness or stubbornness rather than admit you are tired? 🤔 No, I will admit if I am tired. I have sleep apnea, it comes with the lack of oxygen. I have a CPAP machine, but I think I need more air at times.
What you really might need is to be more compassionate with yourself.
A solution to recharge could be to take a walk to give yourself space and to begin to rebuild your energy.
Do you find it hard to take a break to reset? What is your solution? I drink alot of caffeinated drinks, soda coffee etc.
@Rebekahwriter13
Hope it is not too bad, is there anything like pressure you can adjust in your CPAP machine to get more air or do you think there's a possibility the the caffeinated drinks could play a role in it?
I feel the most tired when I feel I have lost my purpose in life, which I am experiencing right now. Everything seems meaningless when this happens and sadly this is a recurring theme in my life. I really need something to dedicate my life to. Growing up having friends and family made my sufficiently fulfilled but as I enter my mid 30s now I am far away from most of my friends and family, so what used to be the meaning of my life no longer suffices. And all I seem to have left is the mundaness of existence. I have a somewhat ok career but it's by no means the love of my life. I desperately need to find a new connection to this world to replace the old ones that I have lost. A love that would energize me everyday when I wake up.
@learnlearnlearn
It is so hard to keep going on in life when it feels there is no purpose, no meaning, hugs. It can make you feel numb after a while. What are things which are important in life for you?
A good way to connect to others here is joining the discussions and open chats. I hope coming here will help to get into touch with the world again.
I find myself constantly exhausted from all the stressors in my life and my medical problems. I sleep...like all day and night.
@Ashleykitty777
This sounds very rough, hugs. Do you have any support irl?
Yes, today i didn't rest or walk as much. I'm looking forward to a week or two in the future when it gets warmer. Now I just have to go with it and keep going for walks and rest enough.
@DutchMike
Hope weather is warming up soon and you can walk in the sunshine 🤞🌞
