i can't remember the last time i didn't feel stressed.


i was a precocious child, who never got to actually grow up as a child. with lots of unresolved trauma.

as a teenager i wasn't allowed to go anywhere besides work and school and lived in a toxic household.

now i'm in my early 20s and i'm at a job i hate, in a house that isn't mine, with mental and physical issues popping up like whack a mole, everytime i get one thing done, another issue pops up.


i am exhausted of trying and fighting, i just want to move to the countryside and disconnect from traditional life of working and living in my phone, i want to live a life where i explore the world and make connections and can just live freely. i get so worked up talking about why i hate working.


i just have a lot going on at once and everything is shouting at me demanding my attention and i can't focus on everything i need to get done at once. but i don't feel i'll be happy until i get all the damn moles whacked.

It sounds like you've been carrying a heavy burden for a long time, and it's completely understandable that you're feeling exhausted and overwhelmed. Growing up in a challenging environment can leave deep scars that affect various aspects of life. It's evident that you have a strong desire for a different way of living, one that allows you to prioritize your well-being and explore the world freely.

The feeling of being pulled in multiple directions can be incredibly draining. How do you think moving to the countryside and disconnecting from the traditional working lifestyle could help you regain a sense of balance and peace? What steps do you feel drawn to taking in order to start creating the life you envision for yourself?
