Overwhelm.

Do you ever get that crazy, over-powering feeling of irritability? That complete overwhelm. That feeling that you feel cannot be helped in anyway? That feeling that makes you feel like you are a mad person. That makes you feel unworthy. That makes you hate yourself. That makes you do things you know you don't actually want to do?
I had that today. I try to trace back to how my day went, trying to figure out what led to this state. Turns out, I multitasked too much, spent too much time looking at a screen. Didn't seem to achieve anything I wanted to. And kinda fooled myself. I didn't get the best night sleep. I opened social media within the first 10min of waking up. And I listened to a podcast while doing other things.
Don't get me wrong. I do love listening to podcasts. It is just that I feel a mind overload when I pair it with walking, reading, studying or just anything else. It seems to make me more irritable.
I almost get to the stage where I feel I have to be productive, learn more, do more, be more. BUT... that isn't true.
We don't have to achieve everything we do.
Our focus in life isn't to be "perfect".
It is to simply enjoy. Be conscious. Be mindful. Have FUN!
So, I have found that writing this has certainly helped me. I just wish I did it 10 hours ago rather then watching 3 movies and stuffing my mouth with food instead.
Baby steps.
