Anyone else have a difficult time during a regular week if you don’t have at least one day at home doing nothing and speaking to no one?

Yes, regroup, recharge, go back out into the world

I have every Tuesday off and no one is home and I just do absolutely nothing, I love it. It’s my favourite day of the week.

thefinacountdown.bsky.social•24 days ago

I teach all week. Saturday, I literally can’t speak or look at anyone. It’s great for my marriage.

theisis.bsky.social•24 days ago

Yes

prozacpalz.bsky.social•24 days ago

It’s a requirement

csquidlette.bsky.social•24 days ago

💯

symillar.bsky.social•24 days ago

I enjoy/need my me time.

only23togo.bsky.social•24 days ago

It's not that I don't want to talk to anyone; I don't want anyone talking to ME. I just want to be left alone. Literally.

Absolutely! So much lately.

I’m AuDHD & I need solitude & silence to regenerate & keep emotional dysregulation in check.

spicypisces89.bsky.social•24 days ago

My spouse is also on the spectrum & we’re child free by choice because kids would just send me over the edge w/their noise, needs, and mess.

ssgp.bsky.social•24 days ago

Absolutely!! I thought that was only me. I get irritated if on my day at home alone, my kid's classes are cancelled or my husband decides to work from home. Like my whole week got wrecked!

sakuraskies.bsky.social•24 days ago

That's what I refer to as my recharge day.

vitaminbry2024.bsky.social•24 days ago

And I, too, will be calling it that for myself moving forward!

diamondjackie.bsky.social•24 days ago

Yes! I need that time to decompress

teawhilewriting.bsky.social•24 days ago

That's what I love about working a hybrid schedule!

cutchins.bsky.social•24 days ago

I usually need between 4 and 7 of those days each week.

tootswoot.bsky.social•24 days ago

Yeah, at least 4 for me too

justmejulianna.bsky.social•24 days ago

This was never a problem until my husband retired. I love that man but please stop talking to me all day

rumisprite.bsky.social•13 days ago

SAME! Does he also turn up in the way whenever you want to do something in the kitchen? Arrrrgh!

justmejulianna.bsky.social•12 days ago

I call him my Visa Card: he’s everywhere I want to be.

ald9119.bsky.social•24 days ago

2 days isn’t even enough.

nolymeida.bsky.social•24 days ago

Wish I could do it everyday.

pokeyjo16.bsky.social•24 days ago

It would be ideal in the perfect world, but highly impractical for me in my current season.

rlfdr.bsky.social•24 days ago

It is an important ritual to spend time alone shouting vicious curses into the ether until my existential rage has been expelled.

How have you been ?

kekejames.bsky.social•24 days ago

Yep. My ‘leave me alone’ time is crucial to my well-being.

thatgirlt07.bsky.social•24 days ago

Yes, every week. It takes me all weekend to recharge.
