I usually go drift the internet until I fall asleep, or sometimes, like it happened before, I fall asleep with music in my ears... 🤣
Felt many times like at least "something" like you are describing there, and if the rest of the family is not on 111 mode (911 in other places? emergency mode), which brings all my "survive" instinct powers back up eventually and I get back on protection mode, with spare nuclear batteries (until the emergency is gone),... when I am not that that mode (and feeling the burn), I usually crash quite hard... either through dark sides of the internet, chasing things that have no value, or trying to make a point against the most useless thing in the world (defintely not the case right now).
It usually helps me understand my value, gain motivation, reset in a sense by brute force... and then I get back on my feet after a good sleep day.
Exercise always helps, but you (well, I) need the spark on it...
Lately, family is 50% sick (in terms of numbers), just some sort of virus/flu, whatever, which adds quite a downtime for me. I am sort of escaping it because I don't have symptoms, so I think I will be OK, but I feel the body fighting for it. So definitely pays off to eat well in terms of vitamins and stuff that helps build the immune system.
So, productivity and ability to stay "Forky" mode, reduces quite a lot. But I will get back up... things get paused, and then we resume them. Life is like that many many times... explaining that to kids sometimes is a parody, and other times a waterfall of tears (usually behind the scenes, not in front of them, but also happened).
Life! Take it easy...
