This probably seems really stupid but I’m not sure what to do at this point. The entirety of my summer break has been spent working on personal projects, I was supposed to have a great time but instead I burned myself out on art, programming and more to the point I kinda dread those things I liked before. Now, I’m not a complete idiot, so I saw that I needed to cool it a bit with everything going on, and focus on myself for a little while.
It didn’t work though, because all the time I spent dedicated to myself instead of my personal projects was actually spent trying to relax while thinking of all the things I could be doing for instead, so I still feel tense after my supposed breaks.

I hope this doesn’t come across as pathetic…

      Cannabis helps me to stop caring that I’m not doing the thing(s) I should be doing but can’t get started on.

      Whether that’s a good or bad thing will be left as an exercise for the reader.

        Definitely. I wouldn’t suggest it for people trying to get shit done, (we all know the Afroman song) but it is a sure fire way to stop giving a shit about them.
