ok i have no fucking idea how to pull out of this turbulence today. so far we’re at:

socializing = bad
screens = bad
work = bad
darkness = understimulating?
sunlight = good?
outside = bad?
exercise = ???
games = ???
books = ???

so i guess i’m gonna sit in bed with my SAD lamp for a while

I think a big part of my depression is how understimulating life can be of late. Maybe getting out of the suburbs really would fix me.

took my meds very late today so i've been paralyzed between whims of how to pass the time without overstimulating or understimulating myself and have settled on beefing with steven

By "from the opposite direction," i mean that I DON'T feel overstimulated. I'd even call my situation "understimulating," if not for the stress caused by having a bunch of competing commitments always keeping me exhausted.

The balance between understimulating and overstimulating is so hard to find

It’s it like an ADHD thing not wanting to take breaks because it’s extremely understimulating?

Because I’m sitting here taking a day off and I’m feeling very understimmed.

work: dead silent, boring, wildly understimulating
home: the most overstimulating experience of all time, at all times

genuinely I don't think I can remember what most things outside look like, I've been stuck inside for so long and circumstances just don't allow me to go places anymore, it can feel quite exhausting and understimulating to be contained to like, a small surrounding area with nothing interesting in it

I do tend to like slab serifs as a whole, that one included!

Commissioner might be my favourite current body text font though, it has a nice understimulating feel to it (which is also why I like Twentieth Century and IIRC used it in my dissertation!) and you know how valuable that is to me 🖤🦇

119. Scooby Doo Meets the Boo Brothers (1987)

Watched on: November 9th

I forgot how over stimulating and yet understimulating this movie was. The Boo Brothers are barely in this, and honestly aren't great. The Scooby Doo meets KISS movie some how made more sense than this movie.

And it will still be understimulating.

it's a helpful tool to provide a service hassle-free. you'll never have to worry about it being understimulating, nor fear if it will fit. it's smooth with no rough parts. it's versatile, Nell handles it skillfully and dexterously.

she's probably gonna yell at me if i did that but like come on you literally know the reason I'm so forgetful and bad at understimulating tasks

Azyo craves to go to museum >:U

Funny thing, museums are very interesting to me, but they are also very understimulating, so I keep yawning while going through expositions. I'm genuinely not bored, just brain reacting to not getting instant dopamine haha

I've been playing pikmin 4 for days and not much else so I was super exhausted but the second I played anything else I was like oh that's right video games are fun and don't drain your aching soul while playing. The fun stuff is so spread out between mess to me it's soooo understimulating and sad.

Back at work this week and remembering how dull and understimulating my job is, and how overstimulating my work environment is. :/
November 10, 2025 at 8:59 PM
don’t know why i even bother browsing jobs, ain’t shit out there. fucking bleak man.

i’m glad to even have one and all but like. i don’t know how long i can hold out. didn’t expect this one to be so understimulating.

"I'm not sure I can accomplish the understimulating aspects of this." wird jetzt meine Standardantwort auf alles.

I feel this way too, maybe not the best solution but have you tried listening to podcasts or smth while walking, or is that still too understimulating?
