Exactly, my home instance is mander.xyz but I'm subscribed to this community and saw this post in my feed.
I take meds and I will never fold. Best I can do is actually doing the laundry.
I am continuously surprised that some people sleep under a single blanket. This is not a custom where I'm from. I wouldn't be able to relax!
This actually sounds like a good way to deal with it.
My package deliveries usually say something crazy like 'between 9 and 16' and... There goes the day.
It's the fact that it's not even relaxing. It's just there, in mild dread.
I had to thin a clump of tomato plants this morning and actually yelped "so sorry!" as I did it. It's ridiculous. And I'm currently procrastinating on separating the paprika plants because I have to recover first.
Using the compost does make it a little better. I also try to think of the clump as a single plant that I'm pruning, which to be fair I also do very hesitantly.
I have blackout curtains but somehow my brain isn't fooled and I've been sleeping very little as a result.
This took me a moment
Not for me, I am "out of sight - out of mind" and on a regular day I need several tools (for example code editor, several terminal sessions and at least a browser session). When I've tried one screen, I can space out for a long time because I have to keep reminding myself to bring one of those tools to the foreground when I need them. I need to see all the relevant things in front of me.
I don't really use any social or leisure sites on my work set up; I use a separate computer for that, which makes it easier to do one thing at the time. At most I have some music in the background.
