I cried in front of my coworkers and some clients today.

I’m just so embarrassed. We’ve been running on a skeleton crew and I’ve been part of that skeleton crew every day. I don’t blame my coworkers for taking their time off, but I haven’t been able to take any of mine and today I hit a wall. Someone forgot to put their out of office on, so I got scheduled a big presentation in their place about 2 hours before. I came in exhausted anyway so I was already struggling to keep it together. I went to go see what was going on and just lost it. Now, everyone keeps asking me if I’m okay and that just gets me crying all over again. I’m tired, my body feels broken, I haven’t had any time to rest at all in the last 5 weeks and I’ve got at least three weeks to go before I might get a day off.…

At this rate, I don’t know if I’ll be able to survive.
