Hard Days, Heavy Thoughts, and No Rest
Today feels especially hard. My partner and I are going through a rough time, and even though I try to give her the space she asks for, it feels like the only person she’s really pushing away is me. On top of that, I’m dealing with a lot of stress at work and years of carrying these heavy feelings. I’ve tried opening up to her about how I feel, but right now it just leaves me feeling more isolated, like my voice doesn’t matter.
Most of the time I’m stuck with insomnia. When I’m not working or trying to sleep, my mind keeps replaying everything I think I’ve done wrong and how alone I feel. I’ve tried different exercises and techniques I found online, but honestly nothing has helped so far.
I don’t really have anyone I can talk to about this in my life. I just wanted to share it here, in a space that’s anonymous, hoping that maybe connecting with people who have felt the same way might help me feel a little less alone.

I'm sorry you are carrying this alone a d cannot open up or feel like you cannot talk to your partner.
No wonder you cannot sleep .
I'm glad you could open up here.
And absolutely your feelings matter and what you are going through!
It's important to find something outside of work and your partner that makes you feel good, even if it's only for an hour a day!
Bottling things up just leaves them unresolved and leaves us feeling empty or on our own.
Talking to someone might not be a magic fix but it gives us a quiet and non judgemental space to just vent and not be made to feel like a burden!
Thank you for trusting and it's good to not pretend we are ok, when we are not!
Nice to meet you!
💜💕
I’m also here for you
I am very sorry for what you are going through. You are handling the situation really really well. I did had a similar experience when I was in a phase of loneliness.
It's okay. Eventually things will get better. You will find yourself again.
I am here if you need a hear for venting out. Nice meeting you!!🤍
