I literally just told my man to take over every other weekend. No negotiation. If he wants to be a dad, he steps up. I used to do everything too until I got so tired I just stopped caring. Now he handles bedtime and laundry on his days. It’s not fair but it’s necessary for my sanity. Just set the boundary baby.

honestly i stopped trying to force myself to the gym. it just wasn working for me. now i just do 20 mins of yoga on my living room rug when i have time. some days i skip it and thats ok. no guilt. just moving my body because it feels good, not because some schedule says i should. keep it simple and dont beat yourself up over missing a day.

honestly just sleep and cheap wine. Lol, i stopped trying to be productive for like a month. lay on the couch, read trashy novels, ignore emails. ur brain is fried from the conflict so it needs rest not solutions. if i feel guilty for doing nothing i remind myself that surviving is enough right now. buy groceries that require zero prep.

haleya same thing happens to me every night. Ngl, i wake up at 3am then stare at ceiling for an hour. usually i just check phone until i fall asleep again. its exhausting but honestly my brain wont shut off. coffee helps during day but useless at night. try drinking less water before bed maybe? not sure if it helps but worth a shot. good luck

fr that’s wild. my man used to give me the silent treatment too after we argued. i stopped asking and just started focusing on myself. went to the gym, called my girls. sometimes u gotta show u dont need em to survive. if he keeps ignoring u like that, honestly evaluate the relationship. u deserve better than being treated like furniture.

Yeah it’s super isolating. Honestly, I just go in with huge noise cancelling headphones and try to invisibly blend into the background. My routine is strictly chest and back so i don’t have to interact with anyone. If someone accidentally bumps into my rack i just grunt and move away. id rather be home reading anyway lol. gym socializing feels forced and unnecessary. just power through and leave.

honestly same here. i’m on week 4 and my brain is foggy from doing nothing. i spend all day watching kdramas and coding on my laptop while propping my leg up. the boredom is killing me more than the actual pain tbh. just keep grinding through the series marathons until u can walk properly. it sucks but it passes eventually. stay strong sis.

Look I got that same knee trouble. I just take ibuprofen when I actually need it to move around. Not everyday though. My doctor said its safe in moderation. Also try putting ice on it after work. I keep a bag in the freezer ready to go. Works better than sitting there in pain trying to be tough.

Honestly sounds like you are just burnt out. My aura isn’t broken either, just tired. I wake up early for fajr pray then rush kids to school. After work I cook for everyone because mom always says food is love. Now I sit on couch staring at phone. If I don’t sleep 8 hours my face gets pale and I snap at husband. Just rest already.

mine stays crazy high for ages. tried coconut water and just sitting still but honestly it takes like an hour to come down. think it might be because we just moved again and its so hot out here. anyone else have this issue or am i just getting old. weird huh.
