Or endlessly thinking about the endless cycle…
Between cognitive behavioral therapy and meds, I can work 25 hours a week and still generally keep-up my apartment as long as I’m not in a funk.
I still be eating wwwaaaayyyyy too much fast food though. Don’t even want fast food. At a point it’s kinda mentally gross even if physically very satisfying. Just don’t wanna cook. You’re telling me I gotta cook and then EAT TOO? I have ibs so 90% of frozen and fast-prep options are out. :(
I fixed this by just eating straight ingredients and stocking moderately healthy stuff
No cook, only eat
I really should get over myself and start doing this. I do on occasion when I’m really struggling. But for whatever reason, maybe just mental obstinance, my brain really wants like a main and two sides on a plate with a nice drink. Otherwise it feels like it’s not gonna check the “eaten a meal” box considering I eat mostly out of habit and less from ever actually getting a signal I am hungry.
Yeah it’s easy to do it non-committaly. Like just have some frozen spinach or broccoli in the freezer. Microwave for 4 minutes in a bowl and add some feta cheese and put it on toast if you’re feeling energetic. Easy deconstructed spanakopita
I’m currently experimenting giving up on trying to get your shit together, it’s quite a good life but it’s still really hard not to make choices that have undesirable effects. Especially if those choices have desirable effects in the short term. Speaking about short term gratification, i should really put away my phone and go to sleep.
Look into Taoism so you can convince yourself your maladaptions and procrastination are the third way, thus your existence is “together”
It don’t work but it’s fun
