Burned Out, Overwhelmed & Wondering How Any of This Is Sustainable

Today isn’t polished. It’s not organized. It’s just honest.I’m tired. Tired from work. Tired from medical bills looming after my wife’s surgery. Tired from juggling kids, school, activities, and a 15-hour day. And tired from trying to process a world that feels like it’s on fire.From the affordability crisis — housing, childcare, healthcare, groceries — to corporate power in politics, to climate change, to the nonstop outrage cycle… it all feels like too much.How are regular families supposed to keep up? How are we supposed to care about long-term issues when we’re just trying to survive the week?This one’s more of a venting session than a solution session. An exhausted guy in a truck trying to figure out how to balance real life, real bills, and really big problems — without losing his mind.If you’re feeling overwhelmed too, you’re not alone.
