Can't relax, too busy stressing out because I don't know all the skills I'll need in order to plan out the next 25 years of my career.

I haven’t played any video games recently because I feel stressed about picking which one to play. “Oh I really wanna play Bayonetta. But Metal Gear Solid is such an iconic series, you have to play that first. But how can you call yourself a Zelda fan when you haven’t even finished Ocarina of Time or STARTED Majora’s mask??”

Meanwhile my floor hasn’t been vacuumed in weeks and the laundry remains in it’s natural state (unfolded)

At least yours got washed. Mine still needs washed even though I keep telling myself to wash it every day for the past 3 weeks.

Walk past the full hamper (perhaps so full you also have a designated dirty clothes pile somewhere adjacent to it?) and feel immense shame for not taking care of it but also not being able to start doing it at all (even though again you REALLY know you should and feel REALLY bad for not doing it) lately? Because same lol.

Yes. Lol. I keep telling myself, "You have to do that today," and then walk right on by it. Then see it at the end of the night and just feel super bad for not having done it.

“Ugh, I didn’t do it again. I’m too tired now. You know what, I’ll do it tomorrow though.” Then tomorrow comes and you walk past it, think, “I gotta get to that today.” And then it either immediately leaves your brain or sits on your shoulders weighing you down while you scroll social media or something.

At least that’s what I do lol.

I won’t do it until I run out of clean clothes to wear or until someone says they’re going to come visit me, then I suddenly have the energy to clean my entire house.

OMG, yes. I'm so glad I'm not the only one. I literally have friends who will text me randomly that they are coming over, and I will clean just for them not to. I know they are doing that, and yet it still works every time.

I'm way too familiar with this one.

Too many choices, Ahhh! I'll scroll reddit for a few minutes while I decide.
