Emotional Exhaustion
You're tired, but not the kind of tired that sleep fixes. You wake up already drained. You've been carrying so much for so long that you can't remember what it feels like to not be running on empty. And the worst part — no one seems to notice.
Emotional exhaustion often comes from a specific pattern: pouring endlessly into others while receiving little in return, held together by sheer willpower even as your body screams to stop. You're exhausted yet wired — simultaneously depleted and hypervigilant, unable to truly rest because part of you is always bracing for the next demand. When you give one-directionally for long enough, what follows isn't just tiredness — it's a deep grief and emptiness, a quiet ache of being invisible in your own life.
You deserve to put yourself down gently.
