Being counted on is heavy. It’s also proof you’re trusted.

Weight and trust show up in the same package, which is why the pressure is real and also why it is a compliment. People hand responsibility to whoever has been reliable, so the tiredness is downstream of something you built on purpose. Saying both halves out loud beats pretending it is only one of them.
Look at what you are carrying this week and check whether you agreed to all of it. Some you chose, some just accumulated while you were busy. You can keep the trust and still say that one piece needs to move to somebody else.
Who leans on you, and how does that weight feel?
Free, with nothing to buy inside it.
