Body in pain daily, coping & pushing through the day is exhausting

Everyday l feel fatigued. Mornings l have enough energy to do my chores then l hit 11am & l stop sit down & think to much. I go for walks a little but l don’t push myself because l hit a brick wall in my head. Like that’s all don’t bust something in body. I am worried over my adult children daily. I cannot drive my car far because of a phobia.

Hello Dear Besty,

 

A warm and caring welcome to the forums…

 

I can relate to some of your words…I feel fatigued and exhausted most days, I do volunteer 3 days a week at a well known charity shop, but the other 4 days I have no motivation or energy to do anything at all….I think because I just forgot what I’m supposed to be doing when I’m not working so I’m doing nothing at all….which isn’t good for me at all….I do think your awesome to be able to do your daily chores and do little walks….they are distractions from worrying about your children and constantly thinking to much..….I have adult children and they live around 7 hours drive from me and I hardly ever see them…I also seem to have high anxiety (phobia like) to drive down to see them…..sometimes they will message me or if I haven’t heard from them I’ll message them to find out if they are okay….I’ve tried ringing but they don’t pick up and speak to me…..It’s hard isn’t it…I mean regardless of our children’s ages we still constantly worry about them…..I wish so much that my children understand just how much a parent can worry about them…

 

Talk here anytime Dear Besty, when you feel like it…we are here to help support you the best we can…

 

My kindest thoughts with a gentle caring hug…(if that’s okay)…

 

Grandy..
