And I don’t mean metaphorically tired, like physically tired. I feel like since Trump took office the amount of mental load consumed by his antics (edit: fascism in general) has physically worn me down. I used to have energy to exercise, do hobbies, or like even yardwork. Now all I want to do is lay in bed. I even have a hard time spending time with my family and friends. Luckily I am still engaged and productive at work, but that’s the only time I feel good which is not what I want out of life.
I probably should just up my antidepressants and log off
Not just you. Two of my close friends have been consumed with doom and lack of a future to look forward to. They don’t do their hobbies; they don’t want to do new things; they’re just burnt out by it all.
