I feel this so much. I’m employed but I’m so worried that just working five days a week like any normal person is leading me to burnout. If I can’t make enough money to survive then like what am I going to do

I think a bunch of us struggle with new environments/people/routines/responsibilities, and a new job is all of those things. You're not pathetic you're just neurodivergent and it is fucking hard to be ND in a neurotypical world

literally feeling this so much. My old job I only worked 2 days the last few months andi saved most of my money (i live with my parents) but it was a fucking blast. I loved going into work because I knew it wasnt back to back everyday type of job. now I have to work 5 days a week and a lot of them are early morning shifts and im a night owl so this fucking sucks I cant stay up and sleep in anymore. Im so scared of burn out but we’ll see i guess ughhhh
