Unfiltered thoughts on behaviour, patterns, people and life. Not every observation needs a framework. Sometimes it just needs saying.
Sober curious counts the drinks. It rarely reaches what the drink is really there to do.
Perfectionism is not high standards. It is a verdict about you that no finished work can settle.
Calming the body works. It is just not the same as reaching what keeps sounding the alarm.
You relax fine when exhausted. What you cannot do is be still while part of you is awake enough to feel.
You do not lack discipline. You are avoiding a feeling the task stirs up before you ever open it.
Medication can hold you steady. Whether anyone looks at what set the feeling off is another thing entirely.
