Sick and Tired of being Sick and Tired


I want to apologize in advance for the amount of useless complaining that is about to take place. But I’ve been feeling pretty angry lately, so I want to vent.

First of all, I am literally physically sick and tired. All the time. I hate it. I’ve got this like head cold thing that is slowly working its way down my throat and in to my chest. It basically makes me miserable for the first half of the day. I am lucky that the more I move around, the less I feel it, but it’s the getting going part that is awful. Also, I just haven’t been able to catch up on sleep. I was doing so well for the first couple weeks with waking up and not taking a nap all day and feeling perfectly fine. Now it’s been like a serious struggle to get out of bed.

Mostly what has inspired this post is that I am sick of people feeling sorry for themselves and expecting people to jump on the sympathy train. I feel like I can comment on this because I have personal experience with the whole thing. Otherwise, I wouldn’t say anything. If you’re feeling depressed, DO something about it. I know that depression is a very real thing, but I also know it is very beatable and never permanent. You just have to put effort in to it. Stop blaming your mistakes and character flaws on being depressed… the excuse can only go so far. Mostly, instead of telling people about it and complaining about it in search of sympathy, change what is making you depressed. Or at least take steps that will move you in the right direction. I’m just tired of all this stuff on Facebook that I am reading.

I’m also tired of it being my responsibility to talk to people from home. I feel like if I don’t text or call, I just won’t talk to anyone. I would absolutely LOVE to get texts. And I would love someone to ask me how my day is going.

Lastly, I am SICK SICK SICK of these freaking roaches. I’ve killed five in the past four days. Three on one day. Finding new dead ones almost every day. And who knows how many I haven’t found. Can’t wait to be out of here and away from them.
