I have used all of myself today, anyone feel similar?

I have had an emotional day for one reason and another and feel my self is all used up with emotion and empathy for other people.

Very rewarding on a professional and personal level, but myself is all used up and very tired and talked/empathied out

Are you a teacher?

I feel the same after a week of it! Have watched the end of a TV show, cried and been too tired to do anything else... 🥴

@MsInterpret no, although I can see why you would think I was as DH taught for 25 years.

I'm a solicitor and sometimes it is exhausting

My sister is a lawyer so I understand a bit.

Sympathy!

Hope today is a day of rest.

I work in healthcare and complete understand. Dealing with people in severe distress and pain, who aren't particularly nice people sometimes is hard.
