I’m not sure why, but everything seems to irritate me lately. Even small things like someone using a portable fan on the train, get on my nerves because of the noise. I’m also starting to wonder if I’m just tired of working with my team. I feel annoyed when they ask me questions, and I sometimes respond in a subtly harsh or indirect way. I’ve also lost interest in things I used to enjoy. I can’t even sit through a full episode of a drama anymore. It feels like my mind is constantly busy, but I can’t quite pinpoint what’s actually bothering me.
Hi @user465175,
Based on what you’ve shared, it sounds like you’re feeling overwhelmed and perhaps uncertain about how to move forward, especially given everything you’ve described. I can hear how much this situation is impacting you, both emotionally and practically, and it’s understandable to feel this way given the circumstances.
Could you share what types of support or assistance would be most helpful for you right now?
Dear @user465175
Thank you for reaching out to share what you are struggling with. I see that you are self aware about how you have been reacting and recognise this is not how you normally are.
I believe you may be facing a lot of stress and currently there are insufficient outlets to unwind from the stresses faced. Please know that what you shared is fairly common and relatable for anyone facing stress so you are not alone.
I recommend you build in daily routines around enjoyable activities outside of work.
At work, take regular breaks and prioritise work areas that need more attention.
See a counsellor to safely process possible factors or recent changes that could be contributing to your current state. The counsellor can also coach you on stress relief techniques and reframe unhealthy thinking patterns.
Do take small steps soon. 
@Obi_Wan_Kenobi i not sure what kind of support i really need. i feel that no one can help me but myself. but i kinda tired to even help myself now. just living a repeated life every day.
@CaringBee i wanted to have a rest day and go do some outdoor activities. I plan to not work this Sunday, but just today, i was told to help out an event on Sunday. I think i have to accept my fate that i will have to work everyday. I guess i don’t deserve a break?
Hey @user465175,
Thanks for sharing that with me. It sounds really tiring to feel like everything is on your shoulders, especially when you don’t even have the energy to keep carrying it. That “repeated life every day” feeling can be really draining.
You mentioned feeling like no one can help you but yourself. I’m wondering what’s led you to feel that way? Have there been times where you reached out before and it didn’t help, or didn’t feel right?
We don’t have to figure everything out at once. Maybe we can just start small. What’s been feeling the heaviest for you lately?
We are here to listen.
Yea, I reached out for help before but doesn’t find it useful. I dare not say everything that were in my mind either cause I scared I might say the wrong things.
Many things going through in my mind, and I just feel really tired living.
Dear @user465175
Thank you for updating. I would be disappointed too if I had made plans for the weekend and then suddenly had to cancel these plans to work on Sunday.
Hang in there. I believe it is a temporary disruption. Please do consider applying leave to take an off day during the week for a well deserved break.
May I also gently nudge you to take a small step and speak anonymously to national mindline counsellors reachable at 1771. The service is available 24/7 and you can also communicate via text if that feels safer. The counsellors there will listen without judgment so do try this support service soon.
i did try texting 1771, but dont find it useful. And it kinda break my trust, so yea. but i will try again if need be..
Hey @user465175,
Thanks for being honest with us. It must’ve been a disappointing experience when you reached out to 1771 before and it didn’t help, especially if it affected your trust. That is not easy to go through.
And when you said you feel really tired living, that also sounds really heavy.
If you’re okay with it, do you want to tell me a bit more about what’s been weighing on you lately? Or what makes it hard to say everything on your mind?
- I seem to lose interest in everything.
- I owed my friends and family money. But I only have this much of time to earn, and i work almost every day so i can clear them as soon as i can. But i still feel like i a burden to them even though i trying really hard to return as much and as fast as i can.
- My mind keep asking me to keep working to the point that i overworked and die.
My thoughts are too negative. I don’t want to affect other people or pass the negativity, thus it really make me hard to say everything on my mind.
