Late Night Catastrophizing. I can’t be the only one. As you try to drop off to sleep, every one of tomorrow’s tasks, chores and errands looms like an unconquerable giant. From cleaning up in the kitchen (a 2 hr job at least) to the backlog of emails and the sense you must make of the bathroom. Yet, next morning everything is done in 6½ minutes. What was all that angst about, eh? Tch. Anyway, forgive the overshare.
@stephenfry The brain is a bastard.
@sullybiker @stephenfry M y unconquerable task is getting to sleep!
@blabberlicious @stephenfry I had a real problem with this after some bad pandemic sleep patterns (0200 - 1000 etc) and I try and have an hour's worth of no screens or work. It helps a bit but I still get the frequent waking.
I know I'm in trouble when I dream a lot, and I can recall it.
