Time for processing

Morning all,

Feeling a bit off this morning so thought I'd do something to get me to focus!

Does anyone else feel like they need time to process and go through thoughts? At this exact moment my head feels like it's got a whirlwind of thoughts it wants to go through and I am struggling to do anything else. I often feel guilty that I will stop work just to let these thoughts play out so I get some relief and can carry on working. (i.e I will suddenly wonder what sort of prices a Ford Transit with 6 seats will sell for so have to look on Autotrader).

Thank you. This has helped get some thoughts out at least!

  • I know what you mean. Some days my mind tries to work out all sorts of things, some of them unimportant. It is very tiring. The worst is when it happens after I go to bed.

  • Yes I definitely agree with that analogy (I also really hate those mini games in Mario Party!). It's a bit like there is so much going on I need time to sort through what is rubbish and what needs more development

  • I get this a lot. I describe it as like a conveyor belt of thoughts. Or a very fast slideshow whizzing past

    Do you remember those shows where contestants would get a load of stuff go past them on a conveyor belt and they had to remember what it was afterwards? Thats what it feels like

  • Well done kicking the red bull. Once you adjust you will feel much better for it! Sorry your friend upset you but sounds like you know why and it wasn't necessarily aimed at you.

    The van is just a fantasy at the moment. My wife and I considered a VW van before lockdown to haul our 2 kids and holidays but since lockdowns the prices have gone mental because everyone wants one apparently. 

    I've been out of the office for a bit today running errands so feel a bit better than morning thankfully.

  • I'm going through this process, myself, now. 

    Gave up Red Bull, and am like a Zombie every morning. This morning, I drove to Cookstown - for an Anniversary Mass - and wasn't my sharpest when driving. Thank God the town was quiet, Schools don't resume until next week.

    Also, my Artist Friend bad mouthed me; for charging him to take him to town yesterday morning. Perhaps it's his Mental Illness, and sore knee, talking. Plus, he gets pi$$ed off with his sister visiting. So, time should heal.

    Hope the Transit Van will be a good buy. Is it for work?
