A couple weeks ago my brain kinda melted down a little, which severely affected my ability to Do Things. I'm like...60% as functional as I was before All That, which sucks in a lot of ways, but also it's forced me to be honest with myself and discard stuff that wasn't ACTUALLY important to me, stuff that I was just doing because I felt like I should/had to.
So I am doing less stuff, both workdays and weekends, but I feel mostly okay about it. The stuff I'm doing is the stuff I REALLY want to be doing, or things like I absolutely HAVE to do (like laundry :( ) and I will probably actually be using my time off at work instead of hoarding it for no reason. I'm being nicer to myself and things are just....kinda low-key better in a way?
idk I definitely would not recommend people go through what I've gone through or have the same problems I do, but it's definitely a new chapter in my life and I do feel like I'm in a better place because of it.
