I used to leave work exhausted, even on slow days. Turns out, constant tension with my partner was eating away at me. Getting support โ even just talking to a friend โ helped me breathe again.

I thought I was just tired from working too much โ but it turned out I was emotionally exhausted from walking on eggshells around my partner. He was unpredictable, always nitpicking, and nothing I did ever seemed good enough. I dreaded every meeting. Eventually, my wife pointed out that I was carrying that tension home, and it hit me โ this wasnโt sustainable. I started taking early morning walks just to clear my mind before work. I also found a coach I could talk to confidentially. It didnโt fix my partner, but it gave me space to process things and decide how to handle the relationship. Mental fatigue is a signal โ donโt ignore it.
