the expectations of me as astronomical anywhere I go. go to hang out with friends in Discord? You have to be the most interesting person in the room if you want to be included in anything. Go to work? My bosses expect me to have 20 years of knowledge in only 1 year on the job. Even worse? It’s a family business by a degree of separation, so my entire family is watching me with bated breath to see if I clutch it or fail. Go home? Better make sure I didn’t touch anything all day so that I can come inside, otherwise my partner with OCD will force me to strip down and shower multiple times. I am exhausted. I’m barely scraping by working 80+ hour weeks. Will anything I do ever be enough?
