@its.anya.lacey: I’ve realized that I seem to avoid anything I know is going to bring up too many emotions or force me to confront something painful. Instead, I just keep piling more and more onto my to-do list because being busy means I don’t have enough time to actually sit there and think about any of it. There’s always another task to finish, another project to start, or something else I can convince myself absolutely needs my attention right now. Because the second I slow down for even a moment, suddenly all of those thoughts and emotions I’ve been outrunning have a chance to catch up with me. Maybe staying busy isn’t always about being productive—sometimes it’s just a really convenient way of avoiding the things I’m not ready to feel. #EmotionalHealing #SelfReflection #AlwaysBusy #Overthinking #Relatable
