I hate this. I feel apathy and pain. I am drowning in unmet desires and expectations of myself. I am constantly getting thoughts of things I could or should be doing to get better. I'm so burned out and upset. I want a break.

My partner's chronic pain hasn't gone away. It's been a terrible two years. I have tried talking to people about it but nobody understands. I don't know who I can talk to about this pain and frustration. I feel stuck wherever I go, wondering if I should be somewhere else.

My frustrations are triggered constantly. All I can do is wait until therapy again for some help. I don't want to go back to school but I don't know what to do. What else can give in their situation? I guess I'll just survive and wait for now. I'm sure some time will get my back to neutral, then I can build up from there. But now sucks.
