Anyone else just feeling really shit today?

[GotBeef]

I have a pile of washing to do and the house needs a shake down but I had a migraine yesterday and period has started. I don't feel great.

Kids are all teens and fending for themselves but DH is out till very late and has the car.

So I'm sat hugging my dogs and watching Netflix but just like a bit of a shithouse today.

I know I'd feel better of I got up and tidied but just cba.

Got no bread or basics in either. Just urgh

Me I feel absolutely awful. Can’t get going. Feel very low. So much to do I’m overwhelmed. Managed to make lunch for the children so that’s something

Maybe giving ourselves permission to take a day off may be in order? I would love more energy though.
I don’t sleep well. Pretty sure sleep apnea but can’t get motivated to call doctor

Yes me. I’ve done my back in and it hurts to move or even to sit or lie down. Gah

Would swimming help? Or worse?

I have a really heavy cold...or so I thought before I tested positive for covid :(

Me too, need to have a shower and go food shopping + so many things need doing in the house but no motivation or energy at all

Just do whatever makes you feel good right now. If that's chilling, just chill. If a clean space is what will make you happy, do that. Whatever it takes.

Me. Have a non sleeping 10 month old which has such a knock on effect on my energy levels which means the house is a shit tip and like you I know I’d feel better if I just got up and sorted it out but I can’t be bothered/have to watch said demon baby. DS1 is 10 so looks after himself mostly but he still needs feeding etc obviously.

I just want everybody to leave me alone for a bit and sit in silence.

The actual swimming might, but think getting there & back and getting changed wouldn’t. Thank you for the thought though. Got a hot water bottle on it and can take more nurofen soon.

Yep.
At home, on my own.
I have covid.
Im feeling scared.

Same place here.

((hugs))

Glad I'm not the only one today .. too much worry and just cba to do the basics ..

Sympathies to everyone… covid and not sleeping both suck

Yes me spent half the morning crying. Just being alive is so expensive.

Life is so difficult. It’s hard work and scary. And lonely.

Yes me.. really lethargic and cba doing anything.

Meant to be going for dinner with friends in a couple of hours and trying to decide whether to go or not. Not feeling particularly sociable.

Me too. Been awake since 4am with joint pains. It's a grey miserable day here but made myself go into town so at least I got out of the house. I need to clean the bathroom but neck & shoulders hurt and I cannot be bothered.

I think it’s a least partly that time of year. Dark, raining, lots of bugs doing the rounds. Everyone has expectations, which i either can’t live up to or CBA to do.

Sending hugs to those who need them.

Yep.
Dp away with work for another week...
Got long covid...
Lots I could be doing (washing, cleaning, cooking...)
Dc2 is going through a tough time atm and I yes ratched up this week...
I'm watching Frasier re runs on All4...
Sigh

Oh, and I've got a weird elbow thing going on 🤷‍♀️

Yes but my own fault! Overindulged last night with food and wine, then the cats kept me awake and one of them started up again at 5.30am (came in through the window - I forgot to shut it). Spent the day in my jammies and now might take a nap til dinner!

@LeRougeEtLeNoir

I'm sorry. It's bad enough being ill, but it can be very scary when you're on your own. Will anyone else be home later??

of not, have you told a good friend who would make sure you're ok at various intervals & drop off anything you need.

Yep, I’m sick and feel fucking dreadful. My 2 year old doesn’t care.

Went out for belated birthday cake and coffee with family earlier which was nice but since coming back I’ve had a headache and feel achy all over and so tired
Dh is away with work and Dd is working later I’m currently sitting under a blanket with the dog watching a program about people going missing in Ireland when really I should be hoovering and sorting washing out

can I join?

I had a date Thursday night which was fab. He said he wanted to do it again. Messaged all yesterday. He Was out with friends last night, so last message was at 6pm. Nothing at all today. :( just really wierd.

Im going to a wedding tonight. I'm the only single one going, it's always hard anyway, but this time of year with the focus on families and couples anyway. I just want to curl up and cry.

I realise I've not had a hug properly since January. :(
