Feeling stressed, anxious, lonely, and depressed with nowhere to escape? Blame it on pandemic fatigue. Take a break from the real world for a while. That’s what I’m gonna do. Racing thoughts (intrusive thoughts in rapid succession) have been bothering me a lot lately and I have become very low-functioning as well. It’s time to rest and recharge for a few days.
Leaving you with a few helpful links:

That’s all for now. Take care because you matter.
Update:
I am leaning on optimistic nihilism more than ever before.
Long naps over the weekend have helped me cut down on screentime.
Other than my blog, I have taken a break from social media aka Instagram and Facebook.
All of this is helping me cope.
