Life's frustrations

[personal profile] philstar22 2023-07-16 07:15 pm (UTC)(link)
What things about life have been frustrating you lately?


I'm currently frustrated about the realities of the American working world that mean since I've used up all my sick days, I have to either suck it up and go to work with a sinus infection and feeling miserable on Monday or use one of my vacation days and cancel one of my planned long weekends away.

I've been trying to get my HGV licence, but I am just so frustrated with myself that I cannot seem to judge the length of the trailer properly. I either end up taking corners too wide, or clipping the bloody kerb. I never thought that it would be so hard. I feel like I'm never gonna get this.

I'm sorry, nonny. I'm sure you'll get it eventually, but I'm sorry it is so rough for you right now.

Similarly, frustrated with the American medical/insurance industry. I don't have insurance and I've been having some painful medical issues so I'm trying to figure out how to get insurance so I can then get a doctor and the whole situation is so stressful and expensive and frustrating.

I'm so sorry. I hate that. And even when you have an insurance, they try to refuse to cover things you and your doctor agree are what you need. My insurance has rejected two new drugs recently and has been known to do that before. And they won't let my doctor give me medicine in any form but pills, even though there is a legit reason to give me liquids or melty tablets since I can't swallow pills and have to chew them.

I hope you can find a good insurance and a good doctor soon and that your medical issues get dealt with and you start feeling better.

My depression/ADHD brain is preventing me from cleaning my flat again. I'be been telling myself that I have to clean for about three weeks now but I just can't get started. So every day the mess gets bigger and the bigger the mess is, the more difficult it is to start.

I had a good run the last two months where I cleaned regularly. Why can't these things just stick? God, I hate my brain.

I'm in therapy for my OCD (again) and I've gotten to the Exposure and Response Prevention part, and it suuuuuuckkks. I know it works, but it's horrible to go through.

Ouchh. Good luck, anon. To be honest I could never be in therapy for OCD for too long because the expectation of ERP itself kills me. And I can do it on my own, one baby step at a time (unless, of course, someone ruins that. About yesterday...) but I just think it's harder to do with someone else evaluating me if that makes any sense. Not to mention the money pressure that makes me want to go "look haha I did the thing" only to later overcompensate and finally say "goodbye therapy"

I’m quite certain that I’ve sold my soul to a certain computer company.
I now have one of their credit cards and it is too damned easy to use.
I am not in debt, but my neurodivergent brain is still screaming at me for spending my money in a new way...

Best of luck to not spend it, anon!

During lockdown my apt bldg was bought out by idiots who won't do repairs. The mailboxes were broken into so frequently that the post office has recently refused to hold our mail for us. A couple of days ago I found out they have been reported by some of my neighbors to the parent company who had no idea this was going on and said they would do something about it.

I'm so sorry, that sucks. I'm glad someone reported them, and I really do hope the parent company does their job.

Ugh, that sucks. Mail thieves suck in and of themselves, but even worse are lazy, good for nothing landlords. Good luck and hope the parent company makes them fix it.

2 months of sudden extreme drought have ruined my yard. We got 2-3 inches of rain in the last few days and some plants are bouncing back, and I've watered my actual garden plants (not the grass, fuck the grass) in the meantime just to keep them alive. I'm trying to convert to native plants and that's pretty damn hard when zero rain for 3 weeks at a time kills even those.

my lobelias are burnt at the ends of the leaves, the spiderwort didn't flower, my strawberries never fruited, the poke milkweed is looking sad, and to top it all off, because the grass died off the rabbits have been eating my native violets. how can I get violets to spread if the rabbits fucking eat them?? rat bastards. go eat the hostas, I hate those.

Life... life itself. It's hard to say one good thing about it right now. And I expect it to get much worse in the near future if I am being realistic.
Too apathetic to care now since when I tried to be happy despite being depressed all I got was a lot of shit. Finally I realize it's better to be labeled "depressed" than "bipolar" or "borderline" now so I gave up trying to pretend that I care really.
Not having loved ones is difficult but good in a way because you can't grieve or be disappointed. Usually I sever ties quietly but some put up fights, today is a fight day.

I have two missing packages for online orders I placed in May and June. Between this and trying to get all the right documentation sent to the DMV for upgrading my driver's license, I'm about to take a day off just to juggle all this crap.

*gestures vaguely at the American political clusterfuck*

Otherwise, frustrated that I feel like I can't take time off at work because I won't be properly covered, despite me requesting in advance. I really wish people wouldn't wait until literally the day before to let me know they're going to be taking a week off the very next day. There's too much shit going on and I don't want to come back to more stressful shit.

Yes, I know this is my personal problem that I need to get over, and just let people get fucked and figure shit out. But I feel like I'm never seen in a good light and I don't want to push my luck on anything, especially when I'm the direct cause of a recent fuckup. Plus I know what it's like to feel like nobody prepared you for shit, and I really don't want to make anyone else feel like that.

My job is stressing me out so bad. I don't even want to get into details online, let's just say I work in a restaurant and my managers are *not* happy. Everyone is under a lot of pressure right now. Doing my best to stay positive and do my job well, but every day the past few weeks has been super tough.
