Life's A Chibi: Being Held Back
I'm sure everyone gets this feeling:
You wish to go somewhere - a place where it is calling for you. You wish to go there. You WANT to go there. You feel a sense of purpose from that heeded call, where you can do what you want, when you want.
But as soon as you get near your destination or know the direction to go, something is holding you back. Something or someone. You are not sure. You reached as far as you could go. There is a tug coming from what is holding you back, reminding you that you are tethered down by an unbreakable bond and you can't pursue any further. No matter how hard you tug or try to free yourself, you remain bound and in place.
You have to go back and find out what is holding you down. If its something, see what you can do to free yourself. If it is someone, confront that person and try to have them release you from your bonds. No one should hold you back from where you wish to go except yourself.
Everyone has a purpose in life and goals they wish to reach out for. Obstacles will block your path and some will keep you tethered down, leaving you limited to where you truly wish to be. You just need to work hard for it and find out what is holding you back from reaching your goal. It is your life. You are in charge of the wheel. You have the final say. Find the key to remove yourself from your bondage and move forward until you reached your goal.
God Speed.

My problem is my mental health. I am by no means well - I am very, very ill. I have horrible anxiety and depression, and nightmares constantly. I am exhausted all the time. I can't handle being around certain kinds of people. I can't leave the house some days. I know I could be so much more, DO so much more, if it weren't for the fact that I'm just so physically and emotionally burnt out.
Hey there. I know it's a hard enough deal to get out of bed sometimes, but you are not alone in your struggle. I know it feels like it. We are all out there, some more in the hole, some just in a dip. But there are people out there who understand you.
I know this comes out of the blue, sorry. I have a dear dear friend who would understand entirely what you feel. Just know that there are those out there who care.

Thanks for the kind words, it's just... I want to get better. But I don't really know how. I don't know what's wrong with me in the first place. I'm glad I live in Ontario and we have OW (wellfare), otherwise I'd certainly be homeless. It's not like I... can't... do things. I just can't do them at the pace that any sort of workplace would expect me to do them. (And can't do normal types of "work", either.)
Within the three months that I left this, I managed to get transitioning, get a good therapist, and get on antidepressants. I'm not 100% but I'm not AS BAD as I was, I don't think.
Now it's just a matter of not piling on the work and stressing myself out, which is really hard to not do. I'm doing okay though. =w=;

This is the best narrative for my current depression. I'm trying to achieve a certain goal that continuously is being pushed back further and further, seeming to be running away from me, all the while I'm stuck in a job that's exhausting and damaging until I achieve said goal due to financial reasons.
I hate being tired all the time.

sadly I know how this feels I have a lot of things pulling me back, most of it is having austim and having a hard time with life goals and expraceing myself to my family even with the fandom and other things I enjoy thinking its weird and such and being shy Its hard to break free and a struggle too
