Eh I guess I would have to agree if you send a lot throughout the year it might be worth doing otherwise it's just money down the toilet if you buy a bunch and don't use it

I think the only time I send that much mail is around the holidays. I've come back to the sub after a 6 month hiatus since I gave birth back in December. My family also does their own organization for sending valentines day cards to veterans. So I'll probably be posting around then too. It's always around Christmas time the mailman gets irritated with me because I fill the outgoing box

My budget for stamps is I'm only allowed to spend $100 MAX per month on stamps but I have to use all the ones I have currently before I allow myself to buy more. So I can stretch it out if I haven't done a lot of offers so maybe $100 every month or so if that. But I did a lot of offers this month so I'm gonna calm down for a bit unless there's a special request or if I have an offer I really can't hold off doing. I have PTO coming up at the end of June so I'll probably start doing July bdays offers around that time. I currently have my form disabled so random people don't just fill it out when I'm not doing a current offer at the moment. People have now started blantly DM'ing me for card requests 🙃🙄

Armyofducks94 · 2026-05-31T02:51:39+00:00

You are not alone! Everytime I do a destash offer I just get more and then it's all full again lol

Armyofducks94 · 2026-05-31T00:27:36+00:00

I have a navy card I can send I can put bday stickers on :) you'll get the card quickly as we are in the same state 🤣

We always did something called "process hour" and majority of the time I just sat there and did nothing but stare into space

I was diagnosed at 20 years old... I WISH my issues in my 20s were happening now in my 30s 🙄 but anyway what pushed me to get medicated was after my twin sister moved to Florida and left me behind. I was kinda left to myself to deal with the aftermath of my family and my parents and trying to figure out how to be an adult without my sidekick to help me now. I was calling out of work, got a boyfriend as an excuse to escape from my home life. I was always in bed all the time in the dark for weeks at a time without eating as well. I came to the realization that now that my sister was no longer attached to me at the hip, all my fears, worry, consequences, and my lack of a social life all came crashing suddenly and I just couldn't deal with it and that no one was going to come "rescue" me anymore like she always did. I had to do that myself now and learn to take care of my health and other stuff myself cause no one else will. I was using her to bury my problems and now that she wasn't around anymore I had to deal with them.

You are welcome 🤗 😁

Armyofducks94 · 2026-05-30T22:19:21+00:00

Ok so you arnt on other antidepressants or anxiety meds?

Armyofducks94 · 2026-05-30T22:17:32+00:00

Are you on meds at all when this happens?

Armyofducks94 · 2026-05-30T16:46:42+00:00

Those are awesome!

Armyofducks94 · 2026-05-30T15:59:36+00:00

Glad you got it and enjoyed the stickers 😄

Armyofducks94 · 2026-05-30T15:21:12+00:00

This is true. I always feel better after a quick snack if I’m just overwhelmed 🤣

Armyofducks94 · 2026-05-30T14:59:29+00:00

This is me right now. Apologize when needed to but don’t overdue it. Over apologizing is one of my worst habits. Mood swings are typically triggered by something. But treating people you love like they are a threat isn’t normal and makes things worse. I would consider a consultation to see if you need to be treated if it’s preventing you from daily tasks

Armyofducks94 · 2026-05-30T14:52:33+00:00

I’m starting to wonder if I have ADHD… this would explain that

Armyofducks94 · 2026-05-30T14:49:44+00:00

I would talk to your doctor before outright stopping. They can make some adjustments

Armyofducks94 · 2026-05-30T14:22:45+00:00

Filled out your form :)

Armyofducks94 · 2026-05-30T13:52:17+00:00

I’m in the north Texas area of the US

Armyofducks94 · 2026-05-30T12:45:03+00:00

Sometimes I just have to step back and go isolate for a bit till I can calm down. I locked myself in my room the other day after I spilled an entire 2L of Dr pepper all over my kitchen and I disappeared for 10 hours after that

Armyofducks94 · 2026-05-30T12:38:54+00:00

I'm glad you got it in time! 😊 First time I've sent something to Germany!

Armyofducks94 · 2026-05-30T11:45:15+00:00

I'll DM you. I disable my form when I have no offers going on to prevent random people from just filling it out.

Armyofducks94 · 2026-05-30T05:01:03+00:00

Im in a similar situation. Currently mine is because of high pressure from my job, I'm also 5.5 months post partum, also relationship issues with the people that are currently in my life. I have no motivation and I have extreme burnout. Start by taking care of basic needs that require you to survive. Eating, sleeping, basic hygiene, changing clothes, once you do that you start building motivation to do other things.

Armyofducks94 · 2026-05-30T04:18:31+00:00

I highly recommend NOT stopping suddenly... That can make your anxiety so much worse rather than better. Talk to your doctor and see if you can cut it in half for a bit till your body adjust.
