For the most part, I keep up with emails, Facebook messages, and social media comments. But I swear each one feels like a task (or maybe chore is a better word) that I have to check off my list. When someone responds (especially quickly), then that task reopens. 

Different messages require different effort and energy levels, but I get overwhelmed often. Which means I won't respond to messages for days sometimes, and by that point, I've received like 3 follow ups. Especially for professional emails.

I wish I could explain to people that I'm not ignoring them, I'm just overwhelmed and tired af simply by talking to people. Pls tell me I'm not alone 🤦‍♀️
