at the end of the day it's not that you hate your job - actually, you like working, you like routine, you like feeling like an adult - it's that any time you fuck anything up, you feel like you're fucking dying.
because you could be actually fucking dying. because if one day you wake up and you misunderstood something - you could lose your job, and nobody is hiring, and nobody is paying, and nobody takes people like you, and that job you want hasn't gotten back to you. and what exactly are you going to do without insurance? good luck with those meds. you should have thought of that before being a person.
so it's not just that you forgot to CC someone on an email, it's that if you don't have this job, you can't afford rent. it's not that you misread a comment, it's that if you get fired, you will be in massive amounts of unpayable debt. it's not that you are bad at your job, but here are the stakes as they have been decided for you: be perfect or fucking die. like, literally, die. that is how much safety net you have: none.
it's not burnout, technically. but you literally just had two typos in your work, and you're already picturing the ending. you want to throw up & curl up & make it all go away. it is two typos. if he decides he is mad at you, you lose literally everything.
your mom says that you seem stressed. the thing is that you have never known a job that isn't stressful. welcome to capitalism. there is no other road, only this one. what the fuck is a career. you come here, and we hold your life against the barrel of a gun, and somewhere someone is spinning the chamber and pulling. eventually the bullet will come.
you live in a mugging. your boss owns three cars and has four kids. you worry about having enough to feed your dog. good luck. beg for forgiveness. CC the right people next time and be grateful, kid. somebody has it worse than you. someone, probably, has it worse than you. so what if you can't sleep or eat or focus. your work chat sound literally makes you panic. you had to change the sounds of computer notifications so you'd stop having such an upset stomach.
welcome to the real world! the rat race! the dog eat dog circus!
your doctor studies the results and frowns at you. "it's bad for your heart," she says. "try to reduce your levels of stress."

I am sick and tired of people acting like miss reneé rapp owes you something, especially this one tiktoker who has been putting reneé on blast because she wouldnt take a photo at coachella in the hot sun.
Considering how harshly the media has always treated this woman she deserves more than her disrespectful fans and people who claim to be her fans such as this one creator who called her regina george the entire time, of course shes not going to respond to that.
Celebrities owe us NOTHING.
And many complain how she may come across rude but at the end of the day shes a girl with ADHD and thats why we love her, ADHD isn’t just happy exciting bouncy fun and shes allowed to have her down days too especially when shes drained from performing. People in the comments who were also saying they had a bad experience with reneé are most likely lying or they came across rude as they tend to forget they can be apart of the issue too.
Reneé rapp is human too!!!
Yes she has her flaws but we all do, thats what makes us human and thats why we like her as she is a flawed human being and that makes her more relatable. And reneé has NEVER claimed to be a perfect porcelain princess and she is aware when she has done wrong, she just voices her opinions and as a neurodivergent person i find her rather inspiring. You CANNOT expect a person to be fine 100% of the time especially after a stressful moment.
Sorry for this rant being my first post i just cannot deal with these ppl 💕💕
