My mind feels overloaded lately, like it keeps opening new tabs and refuses to close any of them. Even when nothing urgent is happening, I’m running through chores, appointments, old conversations, and things I might be forgetting.
I’ve tried telling myself to relax, but that usually just becomes another thing to worry about. Taking a short walk helps sometimes, and writing everything down can quiet things for a little while. The hard part is remembering to do those things before I’m already wound up.
I’m trying to focus on one small task at a time instead of solving the whole week in my head. Has anything helped you slow down when your thoughts won’t let up?
