Hi everyone
If anyone can offer advice, help, or an explanation I would be so very grateful.
I arrive home from work and I'm so completely exhausted that I need a nap. I wake up still feeling totally drained and remain that way until I go to bed. Regardless of how much sleep I have, I will still awake in the morning feeling so unbelievably tired. Feeling that way all day, I get home and need a nap, the cycle continues. I then spend Saturday lethargic, by Sunday evening I'm feeling better, then come Monday it all begins again.
Can anyone help, know what this is about? I honestly don't feel like this is living at all. Does anyone else experience this?
It sounds to me like you are probably masking at work to yourself through the day. Particularly if you work with mainly NT colleagues. When you come home you stop masking and the exhaustion hit you like a train.
Worth exploring this.^^
I’ve started keeping a note of the days and activities to monitor anxiety levels and when I’ve shut down by the evening. I feel you! Sounds like my post work regime for last couple weeks. Can’t seem to get support at work to spread out demands of the say properly
