Feeling overwhelmed



Yesterday as I was trudging out of school, I felt as if the holes for my mind-maze were outnumbering the safe paths. And allowing my mind to drop into one of those holes (about school, planning, fluency, M.Ed., family, speech, anything...) would be detrimentally depressing to the point of paralysis.

Things seem overwhelming and I feel like I'm drowning and just not doing the best job with anything right now.

So I've kept myself (and my mind) busy (and safe) by focusing on minutia. Simple things that I can do, create and plan... none of the higher level thinking I need to do things well.

So maybe it's a coping mechanism... but at least I'm coping at this point. Time for more D vitamins.
