I'm dragging myself through this.

For the past week, I've been dragging myself through packing and moving. I'm going to have to push myself through keeping up with packing. I feel like I am self-sabotaging. I have 2 1/2 weeks before I leave and I have the bedroom to pack. I know I can make it if I keep up with it. I am fighting myself. I look at side chores and think I can't do it, like grocery shopping. I tell my cat that my mental illness is flaring up. I can barely pull myself out of bed. Pray for me that I don't self-sabotage.

@purpleTree4652 Hi Tree! I hope you are doing okay. How is the moving going? I know these types of jobs can be super stressful and some of us, including me, shut down when we need to get big projects done. I think it's a good idea if maybe you set goals for yourself every day. That way, you can get a little bit done every day without feeling overwhelmed. Is there anyone that you could ask to help you? Sometimes just having someone there can really help the mental obstacles that come with big chores! I hope this helps and I am wishing you luck! 💜 You got this!

Hi, Pond,

I do set small daily goals. And I'm proud to say that I finished packing all the rooms. All I have left is last minute stuff and I'm ahead of schedule.

I wish I had someone I could ask to help me. I'm alone in life. But I love being single. It's just friends that I wish I had.

Thank you for the support.
