Like I’m in an obstacle course inside of a maze. I know where I need to go, I just can’t get there.
Like being still and not taking action is better and safer than taking a risk
Mine feels like vibrations through my nervous system that get me so overwhelmed that my only choice is to be as numb as possible.
A void. No motivation. No inspiration. Just me and my never ending responsibilities sitting in a numbing darkness.
Feels like the rumbling under your feet when you’re going up a roller coaster 🎢
Mine feels like I'm at the base of a mountain that I need to climb and I don't have any equipment
Mine is like a blackhole. That scary, that endless, that unknown, that empty, that dark... 🤦♀️🤦
Like the stove is on with 4 pots of boiling over water and my hands are full of lemons
