Mental Exhaustion and chronic Fatigue, anyone?

[Naiwen]

I also suffer from chronic fatigue and mental exhaustion if you’re wondering why I have to sleep half my day off. I’m in ill-health physically and mentally. Not depressed or suicidal, just generally very stressed out and can’t relax and enjoy the current moment. Just staying focused and calm is a job in itself for me personally, never mind working. I’ve been wondering why I couldn’t work like a normal person, but it’s because I have so many mental and physical disabilities to cope with that I can’t even enjoy my job at all personally. Thence why I’m on disability for life.

I have the same issues but I can't afford 300 a month for a psychiatrist even though the few times I have gone they diagnose me with bipolar depression.. I also have insomnia and I would love to sleep 12 hours in at least once in a while but I'm lucky if I get 5 hours a night.
I wake up as if im wide awake and my mind starts racing and so I just toss and turn in bed before going to work.
So I can't stay asleep and I'm always exhausted mentally and physically.. Energy supplements give me even more anxiety and tiredness.. I wear my happy mask in public but I know I need better treatment than what I get right now
