All I really want is to never have to work another day in the incredibly toxic and demanding industry that I've chosen, but it's all I know, or at least all I'm qualified to do.

Aside from that, any kind of acknowledgement or show of appreciation for all that I do for my family would be nice. Or just a few words of encouragement every now and then. When you're expected to always be strong for the people who count on you, it can be exhausting. And even more so when there is no one to turn to in your own times of need. I want to not be taken for granted. Like I give away so much of myself, I don't have anything left to help myself, and everyone needs support sometimes. It feels very lonely.
