yes, i find that it takes all my energy, and then I am frustrated with
myself. I tend to e-mail, and find it easier. Some things can wait.
save your energy..

Oh my god yes! It's my birthday today and my mum has phoned twice but I just don't have the energy to talk and just keep putting it off. It's sad because it's not that you don't want to communicate with those you love it's that you just can't think straight to have a conversation let alone have the energy!!! Bugger!

Yes, we are that fatigued. Other things take priority over talking on the phone.

Phone calls are the main things on my "to-do" list that don't get done. I get to them, and just can't make the calls. I'm just too tired to deal with it all. If it's a call to the Dr, that usually means there's going to be an appointment...so, more work. If it's a call to a company, there's also work I have to do...and, have to THINK while talking to them..ouch!
I hate to say it, but it's even hard to call loved ones. Thank goodness for texting. At least that's a little easier.
I've had a call on my list for a year now to call the stock broker.......my time is up (or, maybe past) to get done what I need. I just don't want to hassle with it. Once I finally get it done, I know I'll be glad I did, but.......
Yeah, I agree with all of you! It's tiring to make phone calls!
As far as personal phone calls, I'm the world's worst. I used to work on the phone ..for 20 years... as a customer svc rep for the phone company....in collections, no less. SO, talking on the phone is NOT a liesurely thing I want to do. I used to talk to my mom, but she's gone now. I just don't make the phone calls to my sister & brother like I should & they do not understand....heck, they stopped calling me before I stopped calling them anyway. So, I dunno.
