Just need to share the stress 😬
Hey
I don't need counseling or something in these lines. I just need to feel that I am not insane
I know that everyone has major stresses during their PhDs. And for this is reaching new levels that I haven't before.
I have been procrastinating very hard, like maybe doing 6-10h work a week while staying up to 40h looking at my screen. I work uniquely on my computer.
But currently I am so fed up that just by getting close to my computer, or just by remembering the plot or the topic and giving it more that 10sec of active thought, my heart starts meeting super fast, I start breathing fast, I go dizzy and my stomach kicks super hard. I know this is anxiety. Nothing new. I also have ADHD (found out last year) and I have been taking elvance during week days (not weekends).
My mind is so deregulated right now that I can't really do anything. Today I washed my dishes for the first time in a week, but on the outside I am super calm, chatty, help people and all is fine.
I am reaching this new point, that I know will end eventually and I will finish and all will be okay, but I just want to express it, because it's ridiculous, this capability of inducing myself into this state. 😅😅😅
Thanks guys
Have a great day!!
