Not having a good day

[firecat]

When I get stressed in certain ways then I start getting a zillion messages per minute running through my head, all of which have the words "YOU SHOULD" in them.

If this happens to you too, how do you turn it off?


(There's no emergency. I just want to fix a bunch of things that I am not in a position to fix, although I might be able to influence them.)

I just downloaded Arctic Climate Feedbacks: Global Implications (http://assets.panda.org/downloads/wwf_arctic_feedbacks_report.pdf) (goes to download) and I'm having a hard time reading it. So I've switched to fanfic.

I sometimes have a very difficult time with the knowledge that I am powerless.

Yeah that. Or in my case, I'm not completely powerless, but what I want to change is way more than my available energy.
