Overwhelmed

Life has been mentally exhausting lately. Work has almost been overwhelming in my life. Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love my job. Sometimes I just feel like its consuming my life. I only work 4-5 days a week. I feel like its all I talk about and all I know in my area.

So I'm from Maryland. I moved to Fredericksburg, VA in 2018. I was 23, turning 24 later that year. At the end of 2018, I met who is now my girlfriend. I was working at a pool hall and she was building a store in the mall across the street from my work. Her and her crew are from the grand state of Ohio. Long story longer, I'm now living in Ohio.

Since being here, I haven't really ventured out much. We're right outside of Youngstown, which is the halfway point between Cleveland and Pittsburgh. I've been through Pittsburgh and on the outskirts of Cleveland but I've never been to either city.

I started my job before I was even completely moved up here from Maryland. I've now been there for 3 years and I don't remember the last time I requested off. I was supposed to request off this past Saturday and I forgot because I never do. A few months ago I got promoted to assistant bar manager, so now if I request off I feel like I'm inconveniencing my bosses because my position is literally right below the owners. It's like I've developed a severe "people pleaser" mentality. I know that sometime soon I'm going to need a small vacation because I can feel myself getting burnt out.

I want to spend great quality time with my girlfriend, go on adventures with her, and just have that bonding time. Right now we only hang out after work (she works 6 days a week) and on Sundays.

I'm just afraid of work consuming me. Thanks for coming to my ted talk
