I've been feeling this overwhelming sense of self-criticism lately. Every task I complete at work seems to come with this inner monologue pointing out what I could've done better.

However, what I encountered was quite different from my expectations. It seemed like we were all speaking a different language than we…
Today, after school, I flipped someone off because they flipped my mother off while driving. I know that doesn’t sound like a huge deal but it was to me. Extremely. I’ll say it honestly, I’m a wimp. I’m as weenie as they come. Passive too. I would have never done it if it was directed at me but when it was at my mom…
so i woke up today feeling stuck, almost like being trapped in a fog. wandering aimlessly through the day without a real sense of direction is not fun at all. heard about setting intentions and thought it might help me get unstuck, but then i realized i'm having a hard time understanding how they're different from…

I'm obsessed. It's literally driving me nuts, and I can't stop it. You're constantly checking your phone, hoping for a text or call that never comes. It's consuming my thoughts like a relentless loop. Every ding on my phone makes my heart race, expecting it's from them. And then when it's not, bam! Disappointment all…
