I've been there. Backblaze 🙏👍

I volunteer mine for tribute. I just bought a brand new Moomin deck back in Finland which I prefer over the various faces of the game industry unfortunately.

hi gameplay ender

Seconding this. I didn't leave a job for a long time clinging to the positives and until I made said list I didn't realize how things had only gotten worse for me at said job since I started.

But then I ask my partner to make the call because Big Life stuff is hard 🙃

Thanks ^^

This exactly haha

I had the exact same reaction!

Haha, you're welcome! Feel free to ping me on discord whenever if you feel like chatting about this stuff. I'm all info over here :p

It's a long process of tackling problems one at a time to make space in that cup. I took a year with the rehabilitation program I'm now also helping develop at the Helsinki Uni Hospital, and that was considered to be very fast. My symptoms were also crippling.

Mindfulness exercises help, but most importantly manually changing your mentality about the stress factors and how you go about life. This is very personal to everyone but for me it was recognizing my stress in situations and talking myself into changing my thought processes. To put it very simply.

Talking from experience:
Prolonged stress can cause your nervous system to sensitize. This can manifest like something you described. Having your base tolerance (your 'glass') so full that even the smallest thing overflows it and causes a disproportionate reaction.

On the bright side you don't live in Salem.

I hope.

THIS!!

😭🙏

If I don't walk out of that needing a vacation I feel I'll have failed myself! :DDD
