Emotional and mental exhaustion
Just putting my thoughts out here. Today, I feel numb emotionally. My mind refuses to process anything. Sometimes, it’s body’s mechanism to go on autopilot mode to heal or not to feel anything because the mind has taken enough hits. I’m born into a toxic, dysfunctional family. Dad was a chronic alcoholic and mom is just plain narcissistic and selfish. Emotional abandonment and abuse were my best friends growing up. Many years later, I’ve grown up to be the care-giver of my broken family. Dad now has dementia. I study, work and meet the needs of a broken family where I’m just an errand person. Dealt with depression and anxiety. Somehow hold onto life thinking everything is a phase and it’ll eventually pass. #BipolarDiorder #numbness #Anxiety #Depression #MentalHealth #exhaustedfromabuse
