Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.

As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.

Thank you and happy chatting!

And I don't mean metaphorically tired, like physically tired. I feel like since Trump took office the amount of mental load consumed by his antics (edit: fascism in general) has physically worn me down. I used to have energy to exercise, do hobbies, or like even yardwork. Now all I want to do is lay in bed. I even have a hard time spending time with my family and friends. Luckily I am still engaged and productive at work, but that's the only time I feel good which is not what I want out of life.

I probably should just up my antidepressants and log off

all the fucking time. I'm like 90% sure I have sleep apnea but for some reason I can't just buy a machine I have to see a doctor and get a prescription and then I can buy a machine, so I've just been dealing with this bullshit for the past year (or longer idk) because of how hard and expensive seeing a doctor is.

past three months have been especially bad, cuz I've pretty much been going straight from bed to work to bed most days - but I'm over that hump, so things are looking up for me overall. still tired tho
