Socially exhausted?
Show your support
You definitely are not the only one because there are "Hot Topics" to post about on this app. The others are having a partner that doesn't act as a partner/parent. People asking if very average things or brain chemistry changes are "normal". Many moms out there are not giving themselves grace and judging other moms in the comments. Totally missing the point of support and finding friendships. Nothing is perfect though🤷
Yeah, I’ve sort of given up. I’m trying to be a little social for my kids, but friendships just don’t seem to be working out as I get older. You grow out of touch with old friends. Trouble making new ones. Sort of given up on Peanut, too… I’ve seen a lot of nastiness on here instead of support. Like high school again, but online. Another avenue of rejection. 😂😢
You’re not the only one, I feel the same. I had to spend the entire day yesterday conversing with people, and today I feel depressed. I wish we were in the same city. I’d love to hang out and not feel pressured to talk, lol.
Definitely not just u I have the same problem where I'm exhausted of trying to keep a conversation but also I hate the silence when I'm with so it's absolute torture sometimes specially with both ends 😩
@Vanessa I’m more than happy to be internet friends. I feel that’s the only way at this point
@Av I’m glad I’m not the only one
@Natalie I’m sorry you’ve given up. If you ever want to talk, I’m here. I’m a good listener, not so much an advice giver haha
@Skyla this is very true!
@Jen I hope you find good friends! We’re not in the same state I don’t think but we can always be internet friends!
Oh wow! I'm going through exactly the same phase. I thought I was being lazy. My husband is constantly going on about how I should socialise, that it's healthy but it's so hard to make close friends at this point in life! Please don't feel like you're an alien or something as I'm feeling just the same as you.
@Salma I’m so glad I’m not alone! You’re more than welcome to be friends, if you would like.
Same.. most conversations feel like small talk and I hate small talk. I protected my peace so much that I ended up with practically no friends lol
@Anna I hate small talk too! Oh my gosh I hate it. I immediately get bored and stop replying because I don’t know what to say.
I can relate. I find it mentally exhausting trying to keep the conversation going. Specially when I feel like the other person isnt interested in what I'm saying😔

@Nessí Exactly !
It's definitely not just you ! I don't live in a small town, but it's hard to make friends the older I get especially with kids...hence why I'm on here.
