It's not that it's a hot take, it's that you're coming off very insensitive, in a post about how the current status of things grinds people down to the point where simple chores feel like a huge burden.
Well my brother in law has no job and can't lift a finger to help out the household. He watches other people have fun and play board games on Dropout (formerly College Humor) and plays video games instead of literally doing anything else. And my sister is burnt out and hoards empty cardboard boxes and can't clean after herself. I work as a dishwasher and I come home and clean more. And we are all in therapy...
I'm sorry you're in that situation, and I hope the therapy helps.
I appreciate everything you're saying. And at the same time I get why so many people are just burnt out. I can't get there myself, obviously you can't either. I won't let my life go to shit no matter how burnt out I am, I'll control the things in it that I can, and just eat the rest of it, I guess. I feel like sometimes all I got is the dishes, clean counters, that sort of thing, and if I let that go, I'm letting go.
