How are you doing?

Very tired.

I work as an automation programmer and that means that usually I have very limited contact with other people. However, there's a period each year when I have to teach people about the new systems that they have to operate... and boy it's exhausting to deal with groups of people and talk to them...

Normally, I get home and have energy to do stuff but these days I get home (same time as usual) and can barely gather the energy to eat something before going in standby mode.

On the bright side, I managed to gather the courage to tell a couple of trusted colleagues about my DX for the first time ever and it's so damn freeing to be able to say openly what's happening instead of just masking.

I am... not okay. Isolated as a mfer, and I don't want to be. Where are my people?

Tired and pissed off at everything, but simultaneously super excited to get lost in my schoolwork.

How am I doing what?
