Has anyone else just not had a good week?

[Pinkitydrinkity]

Like nothing BAD has happened but omg it’s just not been a good week (actually fortnight!). Mines exacerbated by hormones too.

Going to order a Dominos and get an early night!

Yes! Hormones, lack of sleep, school holidays. At least I'm not cooking tonight...

I am just back from holiday and tired and unmotivated. Haven’t had a break in years and think I just started to relax and then got yanked out of it.

Feeling a bit better than a couple days ago but not much.

So yeah I do sympathise

Also the weather is so disappointing

Yep! Returned from a week’s annual leave to all my work from last week and I’m still struggling to catch up, I’m menopausal, not sleeping and feel non specific unwell. Like the start of flu without the cold symptoms. Can’t wait for tomorrow 5pm🤯

Worst week in ages. Brothers wedding tomorrow, he does not talk to me but sent an invite just to say he had sent one and all my other family members have tried to cajole and manipulate me into going which I am not prepared to do as you do not go to the wedding of a man who does not talk to you. Im sick of family today.

Definitely don’t go if you don’t want to!

Me ! I’ve had horrific dental problems. Been to dentist FIVE times in the past week. Ended up with tooth extracted which was only just barely numb due to abscess. Have been crying in pain everyday whilst 6.5 month pregnant and chasing after my 20 month old ! I am beyond tired and worn out ! House is a shit hole. I’ve got washing to do/put away up to my eyeballs !

Yes!
Got my period and had a massive crying meltdown
Best friend has cancer
Reversed into a parked car
And that was just one day. Ugh

Yep but not sure why. I don’t think we’ve had a single day in weeks where all of us feel well and awake. I’m sick of the weather being so grey and drizzly. The housework is never ending. I’m questioning what I’m doing with my life to be stuck at my desk 5 days a week. I just feel a bit bleurgh.

Same here. Started well but went downhill. Feeling very emotional and overwhelmed. Friend in hospital. People pissing me off. Bracing myself to spend some time with toxic family next week. Ugh. Going to bed early

Yeah just feel sad. Partners storming around as there were jobs I didn't do today. Obviously I'm a massive arsehole Because I had a down day.

Same here. I’ve been really unproductive and I can’t afford to be because I have so much to do. But I can’t summon the energy or enthusiasm to get much done. I’m annoyed at myself, but that doesn’t help either.

Very much.
Hormonal, period all over the place & I'm in so much pain....then today I'm told I most likely have a condition that will affect my fertility.
Haven't cried this much on a long time

Yes and it took a massive downturn from yesterday which has left me laid up with an elevated foot, debating about whether I could have fractured my ankle and need to go to A&E. I'm self employed, no work means no pay, so do not have time to deal with this shit. Am consoling myself with this evening.

Same here. Should have been a great week but I’ve spend much of it feeling overwhelmed and anxious. I’ve been off work on holiday with my DH and parents. Had an offer accepted on a lovely house. But feeling trapped in a life that I don’t think is for me. Trapped living an isolated life far away from family, feeling like I can’t make decisions and time is slipping away to have children. Struggling to accept the consequences of my choices. Relationship with DH is suffering and I spent last night having a panic attack and crying myself to sleep.

I've had a horrible 2 weeks really ! Lots of unexpected misery last week with dog's surgery ( unexpected ) costing a lot as well as obviously him recovering, eldest son had some hugely disappointing news and I was paid hugely less than expected as a last pay from a job I have just finished ! started a new job this week and have been in an anxious meltdown all week, very different to expected and I just want my old job back. have felt so stressed and anxious, not sleeping etc. Roll on the weekend.

Same.
short staffed at work, nursing role so it makes a massive impact, patient care delayed, I hate, hate, hate it. Delays in palliative care. Horrendous.
I did my best. So did the team.
I have a week off now, sorely needed but feeling the pull of going in for OT shifts on the days we are extra short.

Short staffed at work
Headache all week
Woke up in the early hours after hearing a noise outside to see someone breaking into my dd’s car by the time Dh got downstairs they had gone luckily there was nothing in there to take as she’s not passed her test yet so only uses it for lessons with Dh
Hope everyone has a brighter weekend

I’ve also had a couple of shitty weeks.

Like a PP, last week my son also got some hugely disappointing news.
I’ve just spend a large amount on my car to be repaired and something else is now playing up with it.
I think I’ve got a UTI, it’s been brewing all week but tonight it’s a lot worse so tomorrow need to run the gauntlet of getting a GP/nurse appt.
The weather is shit, I’m nearly halfway through two weeks off work which I really looked forward to but everything feels meh.

I have a gynae appointment in 2 weeks as I have suspected endometriosis, plus endometrioma cysts and normal cysts - I have no idea what they are going to say but also concerned about fertility 😬

I’m recovering from having septoplasty on Tuesday I sneezed a stitch out the day after so it’s still just bleeding.. I also have covid. And to top it off I’m having the heaviest ever period. And my DD is poorly. Worst week ever!

I think new jobs always feel like that at the start. Hopefully it gets better for you

Hopefully we can all have a good Friday and then an even better weekend 💕

I’ve just felt so nauseous and with such a sore head the last few days. Not unusual for me at the end of my period but has been extra bad this month 🫠

Plus work is just shit and I really cba.

I am going to wash the pile of dishes in my kitchen sink and put some clean pjs on ready for bed!

Oh absolutely not going. It is today and I am home with leftover takeaway, coffee, my partner and my son and our dogs. THis is all I need. I am giving them the perfect gift - the gift of my absence.

I hope things improve for everyone very soon!

I'm in the no real reason group. Start a new job next week and haven't been working elsewhere this week, so was hoping for a week of relaxing and getting sorted for a fresh start. I've achieved basically nothing all week, including not relaxing.

Very tired and teary and no attention span. Not eating well as nothing appeals (including walking 20 minutes each way to the shop in the rain, though I did force myself to do that yesterday), so then feeling rubbish as a result of that. I just want someone to bring me laksa. Though I'd settle for beans on toast I don't have to make.

I look rubbish and old and knackered right now (size 18, but big built, so I simultaneously look fat and gaunt from weight loss which feels like a particularly epic achievement).

I suspect the weeks of seemingly unending rain and dark grey skies (but also warm and humid as soon as you move) hasn't helped. The sun just peeked out here and it really has given me an immediate lift.

I've spoken to quite a few friends who seem to be in similar dip moods at the moment. So I'm definitely going to blame the weather.

Yes.
Supposed to be on annual leave from quite stressful job that I'm beginning to struggle to manage my case load with.
Son broke up with his girlfriend (first teenage heart break) and promptly bought a motorbike.
Motorbike then broke down - took me 8 hours to get it recovered but we managed it.
Got it home about 9pm at night, son was happy - I went to bed and then got woken up at 1am by him because he had taken all the painkillers in the house.

10 hours later, we're still in hospital, he's sleeping after violent vomiting all night, I'm shattered and hoping he'll recover and be able to move on with his life without too much issue.

Poor lad is only 16.
