Highest amount of responsibilities, lowest amount of consistent reward, and it keeps getting worse until your 40’s&lt;p&gt;Apparently it gets better again in your late 40’s and early 50’s.

My animal is only 33 and is very tired.  Writing this as it lays in bed, 3 in the afternoon, because even a standard chair sounds more exhausting to it.&lt;p&gt;It seems to have no motivation or energy to do much besides lay here.&lt;p&gt;If I force it, it will get stuff done but at a huge cost.  It will yearn the entire time to just lay back down.&lt;p&gt;It&amp;#x27;s interest in things seems to be fading quickly.  What desire it used to have to work hard and succeed, has slipped away.  It seems these days it has only enough energy to lay in bed and scroll through the internet.  Not sure what is wrong with my animal, but this is no way for it to live.&lt;p&gt;I was hard on the animal in its early 20s, but no harder than the average animal.  The past 7 years or so have actually been pretty calm, good food, semi regular exercise,  stable job, etc.&lt;p&gt;It&amp;#x27;s scary to imagine how the animal would feel at 70 if this is how it feels at 33.  Maybe the pandemic was a straw to its back, and the isolation has worn it down more than anything else possibly could.</text></item></parent_chain></comment><story><title>The Animal Is Tired</title><url>http://www.robinhobb.com/blog/posts/38429</url></story>
