To ask you to tell me what you're tired of?

[Scratch22]

Just wanted to create a thread just for people to vent because I really feel I need to.

I love my child but I'm so tired of everything parenting brings. I'm tired of the endless grind of cleaning, nagging and tidying that is my life. I'm tired of having a poorly paid job I hate where I'm not valued just because it fits in with school. I'm tired of having to be sociable so that my child can be. I'm tired of having no money and absolutely nothing for myself because my child needs uniform, swimming lessons, days out etc none of which she appreciates. I'm tired of having a body with endless problems since having a child - the latest one being painful haemorrhoids. I'm tired of feeling old, fat and unattractive and invisible to men. I'm tired of feeling guilty about never really being good enough at anything and not being as happy as I should be. There - now I don't have to go outside and scream! Thank you.

People who honestly believe that positive thinking will change your whole life, bank balance, outlook etc. Forgetting that a whack of inheritance, opportunities in life, luck and right timing plays a huge part.

Oh, and that illness is controlled by not thinking enough positive thoughts etc.

It's like a new wave around my area- 'positivity will change everything if you just believe hard enough!'

Real bravery on this thread.

(often unacknowledged, by self, others, but brave nonetheless).

The fucking catch-22 of it all.
Too Tired, so cant take care of myself - but dont take care of myself, means I'm tired.

I'm fully exhausted.
Chronically so.

I'm tired of wasting my time and wishing it away.
Not enjoying the present. In favour if a future that doesn't exist yet.

People ignoring climate change

bebeboeuf. We did have a lovely holiday! Thank you so much for your kind words🌺

Im tired of my 2 kids arguing, tired of losing the patience and shouting, saying things i later regret. Tired of feeling guilty afterwards.
Tired of not having enough time to progress my career at the speed I’d like. Tired of working full time and feeling guilty because i cannot be there for them for all things.
Tired of being tired all the bloody time (but pretending i’m not)

I’m tired of the mental load of keeping the household going.
I’m tired of DP always being tired even though I work more than he does.
I’m tired of being broke, and the house being a midden, and never being able to find time for the doctor or the dentist.
I’m tired of having to support my friends with their various troubles even though they are genuinely in need.
I’m tired of being patient with everyone.
I’m tired of having to eat sensibly and exercise when all I feel like doing is flopping down with a large bar of chocolate, however my health issues won’t be resolved that way.

Cleaning the house - it only gets bastard dirty again.

Being on a diet - but if I stop I'll get fat again.

Cooking for the family. The fussy, ungrateful bastards.

Tired of my partner wanting a fucking medal every time he washes up after being ASKED to. Tired of doing absolutely everything else. Tired of the mental load of running the house, of my health condition and lack of treatment for it, tired of being fat but feeling so tired all the time I just want to eat. Tired of missing someone who I will never get back. Tired of thinking about him Every. Single. Day.

Like many others here, just tired.

I agree with you itstoobloodyhot.

General public! It seems everyday people are losing more and more common sense!

I'm tired of being the one who holds everyone and everything together. I work and care for disabled DH and DS2. We are gling to have to sell our home of over 20 years, I can't retire anytime soon, we're so broke, there's absolutely no money for anything. I'm spiralling down the rabbit hole again and very scared that I won't make it back out this time.

Ironing and the continous cleaning.

Not having a break
Narrow mindedness
Gullibility
Favouritism
That slyness can beat honesty
But ultimately how damn tiring life is

Having noone in my corner

Hot flushes and no sleep.

@MrsZola, I've sent you a PM.

Living with regret and sadness every day of my life.
Being disrespected, underestimated, mocked and insulted.
Not being listened to or heard.
Knowing that others have a perfect life.
Existing.

PMT rage 😕

Being called a liar 💔
Being alone emotionally
The general public
Heavy make up trend
Bad driving
Today's selfish, egotistical, self entitled society.
People who don't respect and love nature

I'm tired of being overweight

I'm tired of my dd having extreme behavioural issues

I'm tired of kicking myself for leaving a job I enjoyed for more money (money isn't everything I've found out)

I'm tired of being in debt

@ChateauMyself similar situation.

Ds has asd and is such a loner bless him. Ds is v obviously autistic and I see all the time people pulling their precious kids away like he's contagious.. always full on the park but after 10 minutes of ds being on their it's empty, it's no coincidence.

I went to the park the other day and see a little girl with Down syndrome playing alone, she was one end of the park ds was the other, I really encouraged ds to play with her, had to show him what to do and tell him what to say to her etc the mum looked so chuffed and when she left she said thank you means a lot.

Made me think that's what happens with her daughter too!

I’m tired of the summer holidays. I’d rather be in work because then I don’t get put upon for taxiing my various relatives around for drs appointments / carpet buying / grocery shopping etc. It’s like “oh, Zinc is free, she must be in need of something to do”
I’m tired of my high functioning ASD DD. Who flies off the handle at every opportunity. Who tonight slammed the patio door so hard, it came off the runners. I spend my life telling her to stop swearing, I’m done with the tantrums, the way she speaks to me, the way she thinks it’s ok to call me ‘bitch’. Completely sick and tired of her.

Of never having any alone time unless driving/sitting in my car or at the gym.

Of there never being any possibility of having a holiday alone.

Of not having my own money.

Of not being appreciated and not feeling loved and cherished by those who should.

I'm tired of telling myself I will go on a diet and start running again, I've been saying it every day for a year and a half.
I'm tired of my kids being so bloody cheeky and argumentative. I don't know what happened to them, especially the youngest, since he started school last year he is like the devil.
I'm tired of worrying my dp will do something terrible to our family because of gambling, I'm tired of worrying he will bring to money in every week.
I'm tired of my job.
I'm tired of the rain and the clammy horrible weather here.
I'm tired of feeling like I never want to have sex and I can't pinpoint the reason why.

And I'm tired of never having any time alone, ever. Literally once every 3 weeks when I go for an hour appointment. I work from home as a childminder, I'm never alone.
