Current Events > I've been working every day for the past 2.5 weeks and it's really wearing on me

(+) Yeah! (+)

6 days a week at my normal job, plus Sundays helping out my mom by drywalling and painting at her house

My mental health has definitely taken a nosedive, I'm finding myself getting really irritable at the smallest things, plus I've been really lonely since I don't get out much and all my friends are pairing up with their newfound SOs and either don't have time to do anything or just remind me that I'm still single and haven't had anything other than mindless hookups for years at this point

I need to take a mental health day, or even better, a vacation. Or find a better job so I don't have to pile on overtime and work side jobs just to keep bills and debt in check

Yea it takes a role make sure you have a goal to aim for and take any time off you can get to manage the stress.

I've been working 2 jobs 65 to 70 hours a week for the past 3 years almost its ruined me physically and mentally i wouldn't do it again honestly.

you get to hang out with your mom, your are making money, you are hooking up with chicks and you are whining about it.

You should definitely take a break from social media as well, if you're not already doing that. Judging yourself against what other people decide to say about their lives on Facebook only causes you undue stress and anxiety.

I never got into social media or Facebook, I'm still old fashioned and like to call people or hang out and catch up. I'm just not getting out much anymore

That might be part of that particular problem, the social landscape has changed
