grasping the light,, only to have it immediately turn to smoke..
been on my pc a lot these past few days(hence the mouse + mspaint art) as to try to reduce stimulation brought on by scrolling. im still having a constant influx of stimuli, but in theory its less crap based stimuli
i kinda forgot about the concept of burnout, till i saw a video in the subscriptions of one of my alt youtube accounts. the person listed all the symptoms for it, saying how incredibly similar it all is to just a combo of depression n adhd, but its something one can still climb out of
i have like. shark mentality. where i gotta keep moving. like someone destined to overwork, while being stuck in a body that doesnt wanna do shit most of the time. so instead of burning out by action, i mentally burnout by having my body in a neverending state of being on edge cuz of not doing anything. but when i find the energy for acting on the urge to Move, it burns me out even more cuz of how needlessly hard it now is, cuz of the heightened symptoms
no one teaches u how to escape burnout. and nobody teaches u how to rest.
after 12 years of chronic burnout, im still grinding to figure out how. cuz thats what the shark instincts tell me to do. i dunno how to heal by doing nothing(cuz taking care of myself always requires Something)
