Hi I'm Maiden. I'm a company director, MBA graduate, and very responsible adult ™️ experiencing severe burnout. Expect personal posts and life venting. I'm also a writer so I may post creative things if I'm in the mood.

I've had a tradition on Twitter for years where I post a screenshot of Ryouken from ep 43 and wish everyone a Happy White Day.

This year, however, I'm moving that tradition to Bluesky. So...

HAPPY WHITE DAY I MEAN 7 YEARS ANNIVERSARY TO RYOUKEN'S FACE REVEAL I'M STILL MAD ABOUT YOUR BEAUTY 💖💖💖

Imagine if social media existed in 2001. The world is watching.

I'm just... tired. Is it wrong to self-actualize? To want money AND happiness? To work somewhere I get paid well AND feel appreciated? sigh

Feeling like a bad person. I know I'm not but the anxiety remains.

If they somehow find this thread: Sorry if the brainrot was too intense. I sometimes misread other people's enthusiasm levels when I don't know them that well; sorry if you google'd my Discord username and my ao3 came up and you saw something objectionable, I don't know if you're a shipper😅

Ok to be fair they did say they are very deep into fandom culture but I know even that has degrees. Who knows.

Of course, this is just one of many graduate degrees, and all a future employer cares about is that I have a graduate degree, so it's not as if I'm stuck on the trajectory of management forever. But I still question if I made the right choice. I feel trapped right now. It sucks.

I feel demoralized at work. Between the chaos, office politics, stress, and uncertainty, I find myself questioning what it's all for. Is this really where I want to be? It's hard to feel optimistic when the 2nd candidate for the job I'm recruiting for no-showed to their interview. I hate management.

2 semesters from graduating with my mba and feeling like I'm being forced down a path that I don't want to be on because this is what I'm *supposed* to do. My mother is retiring within the year and that'll make me the sole financial provider for my family. So it's all about the money.

Tired. So tired. In pain. Too young to feel this damn old! Still the work needs to get done so no use whining today 🫡

I feel like I'm burdening my friends if I vent for more than a few responses. I end up feeling guilty for 'dumping'. I don't want to dominate the conversation.

It's getting to the point where I just feel like withdrawing from my social circles

I'm currently in a state where I'm unhappy and stressed but feel like no one wants to hear me vent so I'm staying quiet which is making me more unhappy and stressed

In a lot of pain tonight. Pushing through it to complete my homework. Want nothing more than to get into bed and rest. I really can't wait to be done with this grad school program so I can stop pushing my body beyond its limits.

My mom: If you slept earlier, you wouldn't be so tired, and you would wake up earlier.

Also my mom: You're awake? It's 7am on a Saturday. You need to stop waking up so early, you're not getting enough sleep!

Guy at work who only sees me in passing: Looking forward to the weekend?
Me: Oh yeah really looking forward to doing homework!
Guy at work: I know what you mean! It's a full time job raising kids!

He's so sweet I don't even want to correct him haha

The meeting went better than I expected. I think I handled myself better than he did.

The meeting with my boss that I have been dreading since Thursday is in 20 minutes. Pleading with myself to keep calm and not argue with him. Wishing I had a neurotypical brain that doesn't easily get emotional and anxious. Tired of office politics. I just want to work on my projects in quiet.

Two tired people lying on a beach. Not a corpse.

How do I tell my boss he has no idea what project management is or what the difference between a project manager and a project director is? So frustrating.

My mom has picked up my sarcasm. I just told I love her after teasing her and she replied "Sure".
