I have four friends here. Three of them are very needy, don't have cars so I have to do all the driving, pick them up and drop them off. Two of them call only when they want something, the third one never calls but says things to make me feel guilty if I haven't come to visit her often enough. This week two of them called because their computers weren't working and they wanted me to fix them. One of them I haven't even heard from in months - he only calls when he wants something, usually computer help. At my volunteer position, no one else showed up one day so I was really overwhelmed and the other day was stressful due to the other worker and demanding consumers. I have felt anxious, overwhelmed and finally used. I still have to go pick up the CDs I dropped off to one of them to fix his computer and still have to make the sound work and the other one called me to pick her up for breakfast on Wednesday and to fix her printer. I have taken Ativan for the first time in months. I felt so good on vacation and now all the pressure is back.
