I'm tired

Yeap, it's draining but stay strong. The pendulum always swings back the other way. But yeah, that won't be for a bit though, lol
Try watching a comedy you've been holding off on. I'm rewatching Always Sunny currently and it never fails to lift my spirits.

I mean, I'd want to say something to make things better, but... it's perfectly understandable that the state of the world is taking a toll on you.
what if you cannot trust yourself to do the things that need to be done
pls i'd love animated avis maybe a toggle to have two different ones a static and gif one?
Worrying isn't helping, but shit talking on shitty situations feels like a relieve sometimes.
It's better than nothing. Really any hobby that will keep you busy and away from the news 24/7.
It's getting hard to work honestly. I know I should be very thankful I have a job right now but with the all of the rest of your life completely changing, it gets hard to just log in and go to meetings remotely like everything is normal. It should be comforting to certain degree but my mind is so anxious.
Doesn't help that I don't enjoy working from home very much.

I'm gaming around 5 hrs a day and still bored out of my mind. Day 5 in self-isolation. At the very least, 10 days remain.
Also THIS. My building's gym closed and my membership gym did too, so I hadn't worked out in a week almost. Finally did a home workout yesterday for the first time and felt my mind completely at ease and mood elevated after. Working out after almost a week of no physical activity really made me realize how much it did for my mental health.
Uhhh wow, we could use this.
What if we had a "casual Fridays" kind of thing here where we're allowed animated avis for just one day a week. What do you think B-Dubs , is this possible??
Control what you can control and be thankful for what you have.
When shit really hits the fan its makes you realize how lucky most of had it.
That said it is frightening when scary shit is going down and you have a stupid orange asshole in charge. The thing that has scared me the most with this crisis is exposing how utterly incompetent our governments actually are.

can confirm that doing a daily 30 minutes cardio workout since the crisis started is helping reduce my anxiety.
unfortunately that is being offset by my inconsiderate noisy upstair neighbors whom I no longer have any escape from during the day.

This is fantastic advice. Unless you have clinical anxiety. In which case..erm...good luck!
Lately I've been waking up and thinking "what a crazy intense dream", and then it sinks in. I get it OP, this stuff hasn't even really affected me that much. No kids, job is safe and I already worked remote, plenty of food and our house is safe. The only thing that's affected me is that I can't get my games from Best Buy/Amazon and I can't go drink at the bar.
But just thinking about everybody that is affected, the kids that can't socialize anymore, the older generation that's at risk (including my parents), people losing jobs or not getting paid, those that are sick or will be sick. Everything's so sad and gives me anxiety.

I said the same thing to a co-worker today. It's hard to sit in on meetings and listen to people bicker of stupid project work that doesn't matter. We're in a weird place right now, clearly. We just gotta get through it and that's that. Not going to be easy, but at least we got each other.
reading the news is very draining i agree. ive started cutting off all internet news/reading starting at 5 pm. then using the evening to do relaxing/productive things. helps air out a bit before bed. tonight im going to check in on my animal crossing town, vacuum, walk the dog then more AC or halo CE MP.
Well be creative and find a hobby that isn't boring.(drawing) or find games that aren't boring. ;)
Do breathing exercises
Binge a show you've been meaning to watch
Catch up on movies you haven't seen yet
Play Animal Crossing
Write a diary during this time, even if it's just through your computer word documents
Above all, realise that no matter how tired you feel, there are people on the front lines in hospitals that are far more tired and don't have the luxuries the rest of us do.
This will eventually pass.

Yah, it feels like lots of major movement and decisions in my life effectively paused due to the state of the world. Not that there's anything I can personally do about it, but it's quite the odd feeling. Just gotta power through.
I'm tired all the time despite never napping more, it's weird. Work feels trivial, hard to motivate to do much of anything.
