Fed up being around people
I think i feel tired all the time partly because i need to be away from people for a while. The people that i'm around on a daily basis, work, at home etc, seem to zap my energy and i need to be alone to recharge my batteries for a day or a few days or however long it takes. Problem is, there's always people around me or when i'm alone there's always emails or texts pinging on my phone. I really crave peace and quiet but don't get it. Going away for a few days on my own isn't an option because i run a business and need to be available 24/7. I just get so drained by other people. I have quite a lot of negative people around me right now.
Anyone else need to be alone every now and then to recharge? |

Re: Fed up being around people
Everyone needs time to themselves once in a while. Your life sounds pretty hectic at the moment. Is there anyway you can even grab a couple of hours by getting the house to yourself and turning the phone off?

Yes I am exactly like this, I can remember times when I've been ill after being with people non-stop for a week or two, I think it's something to do with being an introvert.
You need to organise your time so that there are definite breaks which you can look forward to and rely on. If you literally are available 24/7 then I would say that is not sustainable. |

Definetly. After periods of having to be chattier than usual or more engaged with people I start to feel the need to have some time alone so I can organise my brain and quiet myself down.

I'm like this 100%! If I know I have work I'll not make plans or do something the same day or the day before or the day after. It's too much for me to deal with! Even if I have like a few hours after work before something I still can't do it.

Re: Fed up being around people
I feel like this too; it***8217;s exhausting and makes me feel run-down and ill after a while. Definitely struggling with this at the moment. Feel broken and depressed. Should probably go to the doctors but I just always hope it will pass. Having to be around people, putting on a sociable front, drains energy and so i feel less resilient to anxiety and depression. I just get so tired.

Re: Fed up being around people
I'm with you Snufkin. Feel broken a lot of the time. What's worse is, with SA, being around people brings anxiety, so you're drained because of that feeling, and drained even more for trying to fight it. It's no wonder we feel tired and depressed and like we don't want to be around the thing (people) that make us sad, exhausted and anxious? Pleeeease see a doc though. I'm still struggling to find a solution to my tiredness/anxiousness around people/in general, but there's something about telling a medical professional that takes some of the edge off at least. I guess it makes you feel less alone maybe? Or just more of a thing you have rather something you are, like having the flu or a sore throat u know?
