(PS: I'm not particularly venting. I'd love some suggestions, if ya got them. Thx!)

Us GenX women just keep moving forward, don't we. But after a lifetime of mental health issues, an incredibly dysfunctional childhood, every kind of med you can imagine, a litany of differing types of therapy..... I find myself crashing and without the "pick myself up" of before.

I just can't keep going, I'm absolutely tapped out. But I have a teen son that I can't imagine passing this generational trauma onto, so forward I must go. But how?

Any other women out of steam? I've done the meds and the therapy and the diet changes and the exercise and the job changes..... I don't know what else to try. F#ck.

My brother was (situationally) mean and then when called out, tells me I "should know that he's kidding and being sarcastic". Then my best friend (sigh, a dude) ghosts me during a very tense situation because he doesn't know how to communicate words.

I'm f×cking over it. I told my brother that he's a grown ass man and he needs to learn how to not be mean and that him saying "just kidding" isn't what adults do. And I told my friend that he was disrespectful by ghosting me because he can't figure out how to text the simple statement, "Things are fine, I'll connect with you later".

Maybe it's menopause, but WTH

Looking for a small unit for my teen son to use to clean garbage cans for summer income.

I imagine at this price range, they might not last long?

Could really use some guidance. Thank you!

I'd love to build my gym playlist. I enjoy more female artists but any recs are appreciated!
