MENTAL HEALTH
My Mind Is Tired And Wants To Escape
Stress brings thoughts to my mind, and those thoughts bring guilt, which causes stress… but life goes on
It seems my mind is in a place where it needs to do some deep thinking.
No, who am I kidding?!
My mind doesn’t have a mind of its own, even though I sometimes think it has. Are you still following? Because I think I'm getting myself confused.
I wrote about yet again falling into the trap of overthinkingÂą, and then some things happened.
It was on the first day of my vacation time that I started getting a cold. It stayed with me for four days, but those first two were the worst. On the second day of my vacation time, my back started aching — that same old place where stress seems to hit me every time.
I knew my body was reacting to the downtime. Bottled-up stress always seems to hook their claws into our bodies when we let go a bit. I tried to look at it from the bright side: at least it means I’m relaxing.
My husband asked me about the cold and the backache, and I told him it was stress-related.
“What are you stressed about?”
