Lately, whenever I am not working, I feel tired all the time and unmotivated to do anything. Even things I like doing. I almost have to force myself to do these things. It's quite difficult. I don't even know if it's a good idea. However, I want to get my life to a point where I am happy with how things are.

What can I do, when I still have to meet the demands of life? I'm honestly struggling a lot with getting normal daily chores and self-care tasks done. This has in part, been going on for some months now. I was previously in a job that was quite unfulfilling. Even now, I don't like what I'm doing but it is a little better. I have an idea on what I want to do in the future. But it will require a year or two, to reach properly.

In the meantime, I have to attempt to self-regulate, which is really difficult. While taking on some new challenges at the same time. Not to mention, social demands as well. I want time off from work for awhile, but I can't take it off. I will be getting time off a bit into next year. For now, I just have to put up with the demands I have to reach. Living independently has a degree of strain to it. But it's better than living with my parents.

Has anyone got any ideas on how I can manage this? I don't know how I'm going to manage my way through these things. I'm honestly dreading it.

This human really knows what she/he is talking about. Listen to his advice; it's exactly the same for me. Good advice.
