Seriously, it feels like all I am doing right now is:
I'm tired of it :(
Starting to become pessimistic about the future...
Idk what it is but I feel as though I don’t process information and articulate it verbally as fast as others do. Like sometimes I’ll have brief stints where I can think and produce sentence simultaneously, but then most of the time it’s like I have to think then speak or speak then think if u get what I mean. Even with my literacy skills, I find myself often re reading the fact scenarios in law exams multiple times as the first time I literally processed no information. Idk if this is a result of doom scrolling and its effect on my attention span or if my brains just cooked and I don’t belong in this field. It’s that constant feeling of imposter syndrome and hence why I don’t really participate in mooting because I feel like I’ll lose my train of thought easily and freeze up.
There is the obvious stereotypical correlation between lawyers and (excessive) alcohol consumption. The last post (that I could easily find) on this issue was from around eight years ago.
I'm currently exploring the concept of grey area drinking as I've found myself in the last year or so relying on alcohol more and more to "cope" with the ongoing stress and anxiety that comes along with this profession.
Am very curious to see where other practitioners are at with their alcohol consumption.

Elkaim AJ had this to say:
> There are literally hundreds of pages of affidavit material, most of no relevance to the current issues. The costs of this motion, let alone the summons, are entirely out of proportion to the original dispute. Not only is the affidavit material far too long, it is often very difficult to identify the relevant annexures, and generally make sense of what is being written. Why I need endless photographs of a battered black BMW is beyond me.
