Re: Helter Skelter Day

@LostAngel  Your post came as a relief to me, because my day was much the same.

When things occur that are out of our control, the only thing we can control is what we do.

 

Re: Helter Skelter Day

@LostAngel @Glisten I had one of those days too!  It was alright, really.. but a few things didn't go as planned and I got frustrated which negatively affected how I felt in the afternoon and evening.  I still got some things done but not as much as I wanted.

 

Tomorrow is another day, and I'll need to do the other things I meant to do this afternoon.

 

 

Re: Helter Skelter Day

@nervouswreck  be proud of that! Even with the frustration, you regathered and still got things done. 
Credit to you.

Hey @LostAngel 

 

Gah! Those days suck!

 

I think you did the right thing though, ditching the plans and doing self care instead. I think pushing through unnecessarily is glamourised too much, and there is so much pressure to do the things we "should" be doing, when really we need to do the opposite. It's not giving up, it's just recuperating until we can try again.  

 

Also really like your name for it! Helter Skelter, sums it up nicely

Truer words never said @MissMuffet 

I use to push myself to exhaustion everyday for years. It’s no way to live. The self inflicted level of stress is ridiculous. More isn’t necessarily better.

Self care all the way.
