What's going on? I'm sorry you're feeling this way 
Oh I'm sorry, I can really relate to that because I think my mom is a bit narcissistic as well. Don't listen to anything she says or does to you because it's not true. And I hope that you will hear back from the jobs you applied to. I know that can wear on you after a while when you feel like you're stuck, but I hope things will turn around for you soon.
Thanks Lane 
I wish this was "empty nester's" syndrome but it's more than that. I was my granddaughters primary caregiver from 6 weeks on until she was about 2 and after that I was still involved but not full time. Now they've moved further away and I only have seen them on holidays.
My main problem is when I msg or call and get no response. Sometimes it's a week later before I hear back, sometimes it's not at all. I feel like I'm being punished.

Frustrated. Was assigned to do something early in my shift at work (to relieve someone from AM shift) but no one told me when I walked in. I usually don’t have to do stuff early, so I hate when people just expect me to magically know that I’m assigned something. I tried to apologize and explain to the AM shift person I was relieving because I ended up about 10 minutes late, and she was really snippy with me.
Weary. It's been an awful week, thought I was dying at points, lot of work I couldn't concentrate on, and being messed about by people. What I didn't realise was I was also going through SNRI withdrawal. I've been using amitriptyline off label on and off for years to help me sleep, ran out just after Christmas and wasn't that bothered as I seemed to be sleeping OK without, so never re-stocked. Then last week I suddenly began feeling more tired than I can ever remember, I'd be falling asleep in my chair - but then when I went to bed I was jumping around out of my skin trying to sleep and feeling sick and dizzy in the day. I was trying opioids and benzos to manage this and the benzos weren't even scratching the sleep. Last night I just thought I must be withdrawing from something - but what? Then it clicked, I ransacked my kitchen and managed to find 20mg of amitriptyline, chowed them down, and within half an hour I was feeling like a human being and drifted off to sleep.
Whole thing was really confusing as I'd sort of tapered off them gradually as my stocks diminished and there was quite a gap between last use and these effects beginning - but reinstating and feeling normal seems to be the proof of the pudding. Worse withdrawal I've ever been through, I've re-stocked now but will make sure I taper off them properly when the time comes. 🤯

Is it attributable to anything in particular? (Y/N). .
