Re: not coping

Dear @outlander , I think of you every day and hope that your pain eases, your situation improves and you have enough hope and sleep to get by.

My burnout has eased enough for me to resume my CG duties, but I'm still strictly limiting my time on the forums...I won't be doing the hours that I used to do before the burnout. Plus I'm mostly around in the mornings and you are mostly around in the evenings...but I can still leave messages telling you that I care. 💙

Re: not coping

Just feeling the pressures of everything @Eve7 i tend to take on others issues as well even when i try to hand that responsibility back or tell myself that its not really my issue. Just ads up i guess. Struggling to make some decisions regarding my own health. Feels lonley here

Re: not coping

Let's have a cuppa @outlander I know there are no easy solutions for your situation but I am here for you and more than willing to sit with you.

I wish I could just wave a magic wand and fix it all for you. Do you have any supports irl at all?
