@Ru-bee I've been trying so hard to keep myself distracted today and it's mostly worked up until this point. Now i don't know what to do.

Any distractions in particular that have been helpful today up until this point @Dreamy?

@Ru-bee i did washing, dishes, folded and put away washing. Basically did cleaning. I had my colouring out but I haven't been able to do any of it. I can't focus on that or TV/ music.

Very productive @Dreamy! Sounds like it's been helpful doing those simple tasks that don't require too much focus or precision. Is there anything else that could be similar...like maybe going for a walk, or plucking some weeds from the garden or any outdoor pot plants (if you have some), or decluttering a drawer or cupboard you've been meaning to get around to?

@Ru-bee i don't have the energy to do anything else like that now. I've exhausted myself and things are coming crashing down.

@Jynx ok, I'll sprawl myself out on the floor. My ceiling is pretty boring to look at though, there's only a fan on it.

Hmmm @Dreamy seems you're not a fan.
Huehuehuehue 😝
I hear dogs barking, and people playing at the park. So loud!
Sometimes I feel like Bart Simpson ahaha

@Jynx haha. My radio is on but it's just ads playing. Every now and then a car goes past.
Bart Simpson trying to hide from the world there, my curtains are always closed to avoid seeing the world.
