Do you have more context Peach?
I think it is probably a tired person talking about themselves, and using a metaphor to suggest they lack energy. Like a wind-up toy (you might need to search for an image of a wind-up toy) where you turn the key several times in order for it to move.

As Chris says, it could mean 'winding' (to rhyme with 'finding') in the sense of a clockwork toy that's run out of energy to move.
Alternatively, if it's 'winding' with the first syllable as in 'win', it could mean I need someone to pat me on the back to bring up some trapped air! That's what you do with babies to make them burp.
