That sounds heavenly. Mine will not shut up. And when I've run out of current problems to worry about, I start thinking about all my past fuck ups an embarrassments. And that's just in the time it takes to a simple activity. When I'm at work it is constant flipping back and forth between my anxious thoughts and doing my work and worrying about how I might be fucking up my work.

Try vyvanse meds bro it will calm those thoughts. Obviously talk to a doctor about it

I truly wish there was someone who could properly diagnose me. I did take a RAADS test a while back but I didn't have a psychiatrist to bring my results to, so I go undiagnosed and likely will forever with the current health crisis. I don't know if I can go on something like that without a proper diagnosis. I can't even find a family doctor unfortunately.

But I appreciate the tip šŸ˜Š thank you.
