Almost every day, I have a late afternoon low… sometimes I crash out completely. But usually I can get thru it. It comes at that time when I realize I have not got as much done as I should have, and that time is running short on getting more done.
It does not mean I will jump up and get at things. Usually it means I will have to work very hard to just remain up, and be active at all. The best thing to do is to try to ride it out.
Most days I feel like I have failed… like I did not do well enough. It’s a struggle to keep going, and I have been struggling all day with each little thing I have done. I have overthought each item, and stalled because of it. I stop and restart… and stop again.
It just ends up leaving me feeling worse as the evening goes on. Including this evening. I am having a difficult time right now. I don’t know if I should go to bed, or cry, or what. Maybe I will just “what”.
It’s hard to describe… thoughts swirl thru my brain faster than I can keep track of. I can’t keep up, and anything positive I think of, is lost. Though the negative aspects hang on. They are always there.
Swirling thoughts, and surging emotions swamp out all reason, and it takes hours to recover… if I do.
