Feeling Kinda Doomer... Again...

You ever just feel bummed about life?


I go through phases all the time. Sometimes I am content(ish). Other times I am down about things. I think I am feeling down now because of all my responsibilities. There is a balance between work time and relaxing time, and lately I have had a lot of work time. Especially when some of the tasks should be optional but aren't, or if the tasks remind me of things that make me upset.


Also, I generally avoid the news and such because it was negatively affecting my mental health. Well, now it seems impossible to avoid. I am constantly being recommended stuff that shows me how bad the world is compared to what it could be or what it was. Apps do this. My phone itself also does this. Even my real life interactions are sometimes filtered through these topics and people's divisive opinions on things. I'm not trying to ignore problems. I am trying to preserve myself. It seems like corporations and people alike sometimes subconsciously want me to just (TW!!!!!!!)... take myself out. But for this reason, I should be grateful I don't live in Canada, right?


I keep thinking what many probably think from time-to-time: "If only the world was like me! So many problems would not exist and we would all get along!" I know that sounds rather egotistical, but I believe this comes from a good place. It comes from a desire to fix problems and invent a world that does not make us all feel so hopeless and alone.


So I guess I should give this post a break and just hit submit. I have a lot of work to do these next few weeks. I should probably get back to it. Wish me luck.

I don't think politicians want to solve your problems BusyBird, because you wouldn't need them anymore if they chose to actually fix everything..🌲

It is totally normal to go through phases where everything just feels heavy, especially when your schedule is stacked with tasks that drain your energy instead of helping you move forward, when the workload starts piling up and every screen or conversation feels like an endless stream of noise and bad news. Trying to protect your mental health becomes an exhausting full time job, It doesn't make you egotistical to wish the world was a little more grounded and empathetic. That feeling just comes from wanting a life that doesn't feel so overwhelming and disconnected, since you have a few tough weeks ahead, try to give yourself permission to step back from the algorithms, mute the constant notifications, and take things one small step at a time rather than carrying the weight of everything at once. You don't have to navigate all this burnout by yourself, so make sure to lean on a friend or someone you trust when the pressure starts feeling like too much to carry alone. There are sources that always constantly spew out negativity, but there are sources that spew out positivity, so please replace the negativity with the positivity, replace the people who are always talking about drama with people who talk about the good, cute, funny, and kindness in the world!💖
