We shouldn’t compare our lives to others.. I’m single n I don’t compare myself to other because it just make u depressed ... We have to just be grateful to Allah for what we have

May Allah guide us all Forgive us All and grant us good in this life and the next Allahumma Ameen

I think oversharing is an evil that is rarely noticed.

Except for youtube and whatsapp, i don't use social media and I still feel like life is too hard for me. That thought is crippling. I don't think I can do this. Im overwhelmed. The level of being tired is at my maximum I feel like and I wonder if you can die just from being tired. I know it sounds insane but I'm there, near insanity I feel like.

What's kept me going was trusting that Allah doesn't give someone things they cannot handle. But somehow I'm just not empowered enough to know what to do to make life easier. I think i need to change my life and not rely on trusting I can make it in this situation. Maybe im depresser or burned out, i don't know. All i know is I need to save myself because I need a break. I need to get out of survival mode.
