A Weary Woman Just Needs to Vent

Mag Inzire
"I am so tired of it all." Is this a familiar saying, of course it is. We are all there, working or non-working women, with or without children, spouse or spouseless. It really doesn't matter. The demands both physically and mentally are draining for us women at times.

Some days we wake up and feel great as if we can conquer the world and other days we just feel like "really, do we have to get up and do this all over again." Now why is that so terrible to say, because today that suddenly makes a person depressed. I don't understand why we just can't feel as if we have had enough without having to explain that. "No!" there are no suicidal or homicidal ideations involved just the feeling of sheer exhaustion.

I just think that at times as women we are worn out and I am here to say that it is OK. We don't feel like reading a magazine or a book that is going to tell us how to get out of this rut. Because we know that tomorrow or the next day we will, and we will feel wonderful and overpower this feeling, but we also know that in the next coming weeks we will also have those same bah hum bug days where we want to just be left alone.

So for all us women out there that feel as if we have been defeated it is reasonable to be able to complain about it without feeling as if we are having a mental breakdown despite the person or persons that tell us that we are.

So forget for just a moment that there must be a solution to feeling overwhelmed and just feel it. Just say I am mentally and physically drained and I need a "me break" even if that means sitting behind a computer or with a pen and paper and telling it to yourself.

I know I am not alone. We are all there at some point, but I also know that I suddenly feel a lot better by expressing this. So you do the same and even if just for a moment knowing that someone else feels the same should make us realize that this is normal and we are not all insane. That in itself should make you, me, and all of us feel a sense of salvation without turning to medicine or self-help books.

Take a deep breath and get back to reality. This is life and sometimes all we have to do is VENT....ahhhh. Now doesn't that feel good.
