Looking after yourself is important, at least as important as attending to your responsibilities.

My work has had so much pressure lately: persistent threat of mass layoffs, a massive reorganization, a new boss, a change in team dynamics that has seen some of the shittiness in others rise to the surface, new duties, needing to prove my worth at work all over again, make new relationships.

I haven’t been sleeping properly, my other latent health issues are acting up.

Screw work for today. Nobody will die if I don’t go. I’m just gonna chill.

I just want to remind everyone who needs to take a break to do it if they can. I realize its not an option available to everyone… I’ve lived most of my life in that mode but I’m able to do it for now.

      Is there anything that makes you happy? Since you have access to money maybe you can find what that is, or spend more time on that, I’d like to be able to do that for myself tbh. Society is sick but there are still so many things out there where it’s about learning or doing something fun for the fun of it. You don’t have to contribute to a sick society, but you can at least find some joy in the madness right?
