Answer

Maybe you need a break and your partner or friends or family or hire a maid, help more with the kids and house. Set a daily desk list and check them off one at a time start with the basics. Get up. Get dressed kind of things slowly add more not to overwhelm yourself. Set goals if you can’t paint a whole room start with a corner. Set priorities to each goal. First and foremost that has to happen. The lesser properties can wait. If you need therapy or medication then so be it. Reduce the overwhelming feelings by learning to let go. And be ok with not completing everything on the list. It can wait until another day. Give yourself grace and space. Choose differently. Choose what you can control and what you can’t you let go of. Control what you can. You do what you can and let go of what you can’t. Doesn’t mean you failed if you didn’t accomplish everything on your list for the day. You just add it to the next days list and keep moving forward. Stressing over things that you can’t control is like sitting in a rocking chair, it gives you something to do but doesn’t get you anywhere. It steals your happiness, your well being, and your sanity. Let it go. Keep moving forward. If you get that overwhelmed. Do some deep breathing. There’s a 5,4,3,2,1 exercise. You name 5 things around you that you can feel. 4 things around you in your peripheral vision that you can see. 3 things that you can embrace. 2 things that you can smell and 1 thing you can taste. And you keep repeating things to center yourself and bring you back to reality. The things you can control is your environment and what is around you. There’s another exercise, when you hear or think or feel a negative or intrusive thought, say to yourself stop it whatever your name is. Stop it Sallie! And then you repeat something. I am the thinker of my thoughts, all thoughts are an illusion, instead I choose to think of ___. You stop the thought and shift it to something else. It’s a pattern interrupt and replacement of the thought. It’s choosing to think differently. It’s retraining your brain. Exercise is like a natural antidepressant. Your body releases hormones and endorphins and serotonin and dopamine all the feel good hormones. Just take it one day at a time.
