8 Ways You Know You’re Mentally Exhausted

In This Article:

Everyone has rough days and not everyone wants to admit it. Here are eight signs that you need a mental health day, ASAP.

You’re easily irritated

Someone decides to breathe? Annoyed.

Someone is walking? Pissed.

Don’t even get me started on when someone dares to LOOK at you.

No motivation.

Not even a date to your favorite restaurant can convince you to get out of bed. You just don’t want to do anything.

Anxiety and/or panic attacks

Everything is stressing you.

You can’t think straight.

You feel like the world is crashing around you.

Lack of sleep

Before you know it, it’s 4 A.M. and your alarm clock will be going off in two hours.

Zero patience

Your mom can be acting sweeter than apple pie, going above and beyond for you, and you just won’t have it.

A stomach ache that’ll never leave

You just always feel sick, and you can’t put your finger on why.

Crazy hormones.

See a cute puppy? Cry.

Want food? Cry.

Someone doesn’t smile at you? Cry.

It’s like your period, only worse.

You feel like you’re in a zone

You can go through the whole day and not remember anything, because you were a zombie the whole time.

If you have any or all of these symptoms, please take time for yourself. Your mental health is so important and can affect you in the worst ways.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
