I've been there and that sucks. Still am sometimes tbh.

I've been trying to practice turning my over analysis on my over analysis. It isn't easy and it isn't a cure or anything but I've found that the part of me doesn't hold up to the same level of scrutiny as it expects from the rest of me. Trying that helped me a bit. I hope it might help you a bit too.

Yeah. I keep trying to tell myself to break those mountains down into mole hills. And when I start seeing the sea of mole hills, I try to remind myself to just pick one and start.

And then there’s the perfectionism. Or at least the make it decent enough that it won’t break when I look at it.

Some days are better than others. I have learned to accept that and not give myself such a hard time about it.

I went to my first protest this year. It was even out of state. Huge win in my book.
