I got really sick and in a depression spiral. That’s the sum of it but I will be complaining below so feel free to skip the rest of this.
So on Eid day, my siblings got sick and I subsequently caught it from them. The got over it pretty quickly but I was already stressed and overworked from two weeks of havoc at my job so it took me out. I did check and it isn’t Covid so that’s a relief but I was completely bedridden for three days. Everything hurt and I didn’t have any energy, so it didn’t help that my family still expected me to cook and clean and be presentable. Which brings me to the depression spiral. I was already feeling pretty crummy about myself in general before I was sick, so being constantly told that I was disappointing while being sick and having to take care of myself despite my whole family being there destroyed my sense of self-worth. Reminder to everyone to be grateful for that people around you who are patient with you and willing to take care of you even when you can’t do anything thing but sleep and complain. Anyway, I’m still getting over my cold but I am getting better. I am also at the point of the depression spiral where I don’t have the energy to feel bad for myself and that’s usually the point where things start getting better for me. I will try to get back into posting prompts regularly again and maybe doing some art for this page, but please be patient with me as I get back into doing things that make me happy again. Thanks.
