New to this and feeling lost

I don’t really know what I’m doing here. I’m feeling very burnt out. I am a small business owner and struggling to make ends meet given the current financial climate. I was evicted from my house 6 months ago when the owners decided they wanted to move back in (I was a perfect tenant for 11 years so kinda pissed about that) moved back in with my ex (that’s a whole looooong complicated story for another day)

Can’t find any staff so working 12 hour days 7 days a week. I’m just so tired and I don’t know how to continue.

Re: New to this and feeling lost

Hi PPDG42, I'm one of the moderators here. Just wanted to write a quick message to say Hello and Welcome. Jezzzz not surprised your tired, I don't even know how you even have the energy to type right now...with those kinds of hours. It can be incredibly destabilising all the changes you're having to navigate (you mentioned having to move as well) hope you find this community to be a supportive one while you navigate all of what life can throw at us ! . When your body and mind is feeling like this, what do you find usually helps ?

Similar story here, maybe forums might help with the feeling of suffering in isolation? I'm new here as well, and haven't found my feet either.

I really hope you catch a break soon!
