What is something you wish people understood?

School is completely draining me I go to a private school and the amount of homework they pile on us is ridiculous It’s like they think we have no life outside of school and then they blame us when we struggle to finish their endless assignments School starts at 7 15 AM and they literally lock the doors at 7 I live 40 minutes away which means I have to wake up at 5 AM just to make it on time Then school ends at 2 PM but with all my extracurriculars I don’t even start homework until 8 PM and I’m stuck working until 11 30 PM just to get everything done If my teacher feels extra generous she dumps even more homework on us and somehow I’m the one getting blamed for not finishing it and not getting a full nights sleep The other night my mom walked in on me doing homework at midnight and told me to spend less time on my phone like that’s going to fix anything And the uniform rules Ridiculous My skirt was literally 1 cm too short and my teacher acted like I started World War III I know I sound like I’m complaining but just look at my homework today a full science project with quiz questions math worksheets and an exam an English essay worth 20 percent of my grade geography and history assignments and Mandarin characters to memorize It’s already 7 34 PM and I still have all of this to do I’m exhausted

Last year’s breakup broke me. Our last moment at the state fair felt like a goodbye we both knew was coming.

Since then, every relationship feels empty. The only time I feel anything is when I’m high, and I know that’s not healthy.

Has anyone been through this and found love again?

I feel like my own worst enemy I’m unhappy all the time I know I need something to do to feel happy but I just work too much and stay home too much I can’t be social and when I get home I don’t know what to do I try to go out but staying inside is my comfort zone

Life is exhausting I work cook clean and handle everything because I feel like I have to I can’t relax without feeling selfish I battle depression and feel like I’m only here to serve others I don’t buy myself things or celebrate Father’s Day because I don’t feel like I deserve it I keep pushing forward but I don’t know how much longer before I break

I keep going back and forth on my ex Right now I feel over her but soon I’ll be depressed I broke up with her for another girl then wanted her back but she wouldn’t take me I basically cheated so I have no one to blame but myself Our relationship had flaws we loved the idea of being together not each other but I still miss her It’s been over a month at least I’m not crying anymore All I can do now is try to change

Being poor is frustrating I work full time but still struggle while friends are unemployed own houses drive new cars and buy whatever they want because their parents still support them Planning a wedding makes it worse since others get whatever they want while I might not have one at all because of the cost I’m proud of being self-sufficient but it’s hard watching people never worry about money while I have to fight for everything I have

Apartment living is frustrating I work at a university and I’m on summer break while selling art from home for extra income but relaxing is impossible Tenants are constantly running around banging yelling slamming doors nonstop I get that they have a right to live but the constant noise makes it impossible to unwind even naps are out of the question I know I can use headphones but that gets exhausting too We’re looking at houses but affording one is tough

I understand being tired on the weekends and wanting to catch up on sleep but i really dont understand sleeping till 11:30am or 1pm. Do you not want to do anything productive or fun with your weekend. This is why y'all hate Mondays. You literally waste hours on the weekend and then complain that you didnt get anything done. Like no duh. 🙄
