I Am So Exhausted...
I am 35f with autism, adhd, bipolar depression and some other stuff that is not diagnosed. I can currently caring for 2 disabled family members, my mother( in her 60s, has a few health issues that affect her balance and hearing) and brother (Blind, partly deaf and has poor balance). They are.......the MOST exhausting people I have ever met in my life. If it isn't one who constantly has medical issues beyond my expertise, it's the other wanting to go places and bothering everyone to got to those places.
I can't even get any of the shit I need to do done because everyone asks for random shit.
The only way I can describe it is being a protagonist in a video game. You have to save the realm/planet/land from the big bad guy, but your main goal is to gather all the tools and spells you need. So, you get to work and head to a local village.
Apparently, the villagers need help with random shit like collecting chickens that got loose, lighting the forge....Hell, one woman wants you to help with the laundry. Not washing it or drying, but by PUTTING IT AWAY! She also complains the whole fucking time about how you put it away.
Once you completed EVERYTHING, you look at your clock in real life. 12 AM....You started playing at 8PM, yet you BARELY made any progress. So you quit and refuse to play the rest of the game.
That's what my life is like. All side quests, no progression.
Its actually taking a toll on my mental health....I am only truly happy while they are gone from the apartment.
