Shoutout to the lurkers who just don't have the energy to post

[9BBN]

I have so much I want to write but no energy to say it.

 

[Elegy]

I don't know what you're trying to say?

It is one reason I do not respond to established threads or long posts. I absolutely do not have the energy or focus to read them. I do not even revisit the few threads I do post in so if anyone responds to me, without tagging or quoting, I won't know it. So, don't think I am ignoring you.

yeah there's so much i want to do but have no energy it's a form of decline in abilities severe enough to interfere with daily life

 

[Elegy]

You're from the US, don't you speak English?

I only speak Wet Brain. It's a little-known Native American dialect... most familar to Sioux, Navajo, and the northeastern American Cherokee and Penobscot tribes, to which I belong.

i thought wet brain was a medical condition caused by chronic alcohol abuse

You seem eloquent & coherent to me...

I can relate well. Somedays, I have some energy to post, but then I get too scared of how others might react and stuff. I also regret some of my past posts, so it gets difficult finding any motivation to share my thoughts.

 

[Insomniac]

I can only relate

 

[Crazy4u]

yeah same. I don't even go to therapy because it requires a lot of energy

 

[Misfit72]

I know whereof you speak.

 

[FuneralCry]

It can be very difficult doing things when you have no energy. In my case I have nothing much to say, but I still have made many repetitive posts about the same thing. It is a way to pass the time.

I also don't have the energy to post. Can barley get out of bed. Depression so painful. I always feel like a broken record. The pain I'm in nobody understands:(

 

[Q-Dust]

I have the energy to post I just don't know how to put my thoughts into words

i think they are making a self deprecating joke about the rates of alcoholism in native tribes

I don't feel it takes as much energy for me to simply comment rather than continually argue a point (which can be exhausting), however I haven't actually made a post in forever for various reasons.
(Btw I think you can request for a mod to delete your thread, unless we are able to delete them ourselves now, unsure..but if they bother you I'm pretty certain they don't have to stay up. I'm also going to have to request some edits before I ctb for privacy reasons.)

I am on and off here, I go through bursts of being able to yap, versus staying silent, but usually I don't even have the energy to so much as lurk when I'm absent from here for months at a time. Still, to the original post, idk if most who lurk are merely doing so out of fatigue, there could be endless reasons, including fear.
To me this place usually requires less energy than anywhere else online or accomplishing other daily tasks and activities, I don't have to worry as much and it can be cathartic.
Meanwhile, while I'm going on and on, I fall behind on things such as basic hygiene, I'm just so damn tired, sitting here and typing is one thing, getting up and facing the day is another.

I usually respond without reading the rest of the comments and then I go back and read some of them, realizing I sometimes repeat what another person has already said.
