Anyone else have this thing where one mistake can ruin your entire day? Or is it just me?

All the time. It takes all or most of my spoons away.

### @2manytasks — 2023-06-16T15:16:55.996Z

100% I usually have a hard time moving past it. I replay that moment in my mind and spiral into anxiety

### @t3chnopol1c3 — 2023-06-16T14:09:14.738Z

Yeah, totally understand. And the way it hurts is terrible.

### @MamaBear91 — 2023-06-16T10:10:16.614Z

Definitely feel this! You're not alone!

### @SamStanley — 2023-06-16T02:45:22.335Z

I’m trying real hard to tell myself, “It’s not a bad day, just a bad hour”……. It’s helped a little, but again…. Trying 😃

### @Mack313 — 2023-06-16T02:24:26.724Z

I totally get this! One little mistake makes you feel like the rest of the day will be filled with mistakes as well, so, like, what’s the point? It’s all just going to be a “mistake” too. You’re so not alone in these feelings.

### @dogslikecats — 2023-06-16T00:59:52.395Z

I’m so now and not-now that mistakes are so soon in the past that it’s hard to learn from them. Which is kind of the inverse of “one mistake can ruin my whole day”…

### @abby.jo — 2023-06-15T06:38:41.353Z

Yes because then I feel like a failure the rest of the day

### @frazzled — 2023-06-14T14:55:01.038Z

Ohhh yeah…nothing ruins a day when a perfectionist screws up because of ADHD.  And on that note…you gotta love the irony of perfectionism as a commodity of ADHD. 🤦‍♀️

### @theadhdgirl18 — 2023-06-13T22:42:31.635Z

All the time, i know how that feels. It sucks

### @hotmess30 — 2023-06-13T10:08:38.012Z

This happened to me the other day and I went into a massive anxious spiral. 😩

### @battybones — 2023-06-12T19:15:15.168Z

Yep!

### @jnoof — 2023-06-12T03:07:49.558Z

Yes but usually it’s because I worry that my mistake will cause others to dislike me. As if others don’t make mistakes too. I forget to acknowledge myself as a human not as a perfect like superhero or something haha

### @ahdhuser — 2023-06-11T20:49:15.044Z

Well, as a software developer, errors can ruin my day completely. BUT one of my friends told me something really wonderful. She said, "Mistakes aren't a part of you, but they're a part of the process." So, let's not take it personally :)

### @ahauge1 — 2023-06-11T17:40:31.585Z

It takes something so small for that to happen. Doesn’t even have to be a big mistake.

### @vikingqueen — 2023-06-11T17:22:40.533Z

All the time gawd🙄

### @t-rex — 2023-06-11T13:58:36.668Z

Yes! No it’s not just you.

### @llamas — 2023-06-10T23:41:28.176Z

Here...

### @vinnaren — 2023-06-09T22:09:15.929Z

I hate the spirals. It’s so hard for me to get out of them

### @learning2live — 2023-06-08T13:49:32.977Z

It's not just you! One thing can send me into a spiral. That's when I have to try really hard to correct my thoughts, or distract myself with comedy or music....

### @glampire — 2023-06-07T19:21:14.902Z

Ugh, yes. The worst feeling. I cannot move on with my day until my brain decides I’ve been punished enough and I’ve made myself exhausted lol.

### @PotatoLoaf — 2023-06-04T20:11:22.689Z

I feel the same way!

### @marcnking — 2023-06-04T19:18:38.799Z

Yes it’s so hard to get out of that mindset once you’re in it

### @remind me — 2023-06-04T14:14:13.964Z

But, what can we do to help ourselves?

### @Midwest Lady — 2023-06-03T20:29:43.715Z

It sounds like many of us can ruminate over a mistake or screw up.   
Does anyone have tips on how to help oneself move on?

### @haylstorm — 2023-06-03T10:42:07.230Z

Oh absolutely. Not just the day, sometimes one mistake can ruin like my entire week 😬

### @nomemorygirl — 2023-06-03T08:38:21.968Z

Often got new plan from my girl friend and it ruin the plan I had so it’s so frustrating and I can’t enjoy the activities

### @I can't _remember — 2023-06-02T23:23:15.302Z

Yes

### @hodag — 2023-06-02T23:13:36.715Z

It’s not just you and it’s not just mistakes, it’s anything that disrupts my planned routine (for example, my pipe being broken when I went to smoke this morning). I have to actually take my self into taking another step in the day instead of completely shutting down.

### @Debaconator — 2023-06-02T23:01:43.048Z

For sure! Sometimes it breaks my list, other times it’s a headbuster, meaning it dwells in my head but doesn’t seem to have any effect on others.

### @getishdone — 2023-06-02T22:48:10.280Z

Same here! I messed something up a week ago and I still think about it

### @psyplops — 2023-06-02T22:32:37.177Z

Oh yeah definitely

### @kirmesimKopf — 2023-06-02T19:57:40.426Z

I know that feeling 🫂
