Overwhelmed. That’s the only way I know to describe this overpowering feeling of not knowing what to do, not feeling like doing anything because it all just seems so daunting, not caring about anything important or anyone else. Just wanting to evaporate into thin air and not exist anymore because it’s just all too much.
And I feel like this all. the. time. It’s frustrating. I want to be able to make a schedule and follow it. A schedule that includes free play for the girls, outside time, chores, less screen time (for me and the girls)… but I can’t. Because I just feel frozen. I can’t do anything. Except apparently write.
How do you deal with overwhelm? Let me know in the comments, I could use ALL the advice!
I just did a podcast on this subject. I hope this helps Clarissa.
