[Personal] Pro tips to myself

Dec 08, 2019 14:10


So, speaking of sanity, I have learned a few things that have helped. I don't know if this will ever help anyone else because I have a kind of low-key pain-in-the-ass personality, when it comes to getting crap done.

1. Wear earplugs (or in some cases, several layers of headphones)

One of the greatest sources of pain and stress is sound for me. I'm currently trying to overwrite my reaction to things like vacuuming, putting dishes away, and screaming kids. Of course I do this while sewing too.

Also pushing shopping carts.

2. Make sure your end note gets better.

Lots of avoidance due to stressful endings. Doesn't help that I'm neurotic enough to get stress from things I probably shouldn't. Doesn't help that I'm neurotic enough compared to what I can understand of myself and surroundings. I don't know why I can't handle what I can't handle when I can do what I can do... but I do have to accept that.

3. Slowly if you have to still means it gets done in the end.

Kind of what it says. Sometimes simple tasks terrify me and even though I think I have problems, I also know I can't use it as an excuse and I still have to do whatever it is I have to... just like everyone else.

Just... give myself a break and time to get it done. Forcing myself won't necessarily make it happen correctly.

Just like facing oneself, I guess.


日曜日。晴。
いや、ちょっとした日記らしいこと書こうと思う。
昨日はあっちこっちの兄との買い物。
帰ったら足が疲れてたからゲームで腕が疲れたらいいと思って・・・。

今頃は母の潰瘍(かいよう)がひどい。
Thanksgivingのストレスからか、不明なものを食べてお腹壊したからか
どんなに回避しようとしていても必ずダウンしちゃうんだねぇ
とにかく今頃は食事に特に気をつけなきゃなんないことになっちゃった。
忙しいとは言えないけど、ややこしい。

[数時間後]

晩ご飯の直ぐ後母のおやつとか買いに出かけていた。
予想よりたくさん買った。アイスまでも買えたんだ。
で、元々の狙いはカゴだったが。まぁ、買えたけど。

話を変えるけど、IGのStoryを初めてやってみた。
訳わからなかったからあまり見てなかったけど
これから皆のを見ようね。

Oh yeah I didn't mention this but I'll put it up on my profile later. I'm on several social media platforms, but not all of them... and some are more public and private. I won't necessarily say what my id is, but I'll tell people I know (online) if they ask.

So currently it's just Instagram (public), Twitter (private-ish), and... this, if you can count this (I think it predates it but yeah). I was on Tumblr but I would have to dig up my password and id again after switching phones and stuff. Well it's not like I said anything important there and most of the time was using it as a journal before I could get back to this.

I got really emotionally stressed being on Facebook so I kinda faded out of existence there and I have yet to see if anyone cares.
