  Congrats! You have this superpower and I am jealous.

  Unfortunately you can now only concentrate on things you are supposed to do. You try to watch TV and you can’t follow the show because you’re thinking about how you need to mop the floors. Want to read? You can’t concentrate because you really should wash your windows. Your life becomes a hell of boring productivity. You lose sleep thinking about all the things you’re supposed to do, including how you’re supposed to be asleep by now. There is no more pleasure in life. There are no more quiet moments. There is only stuff you are supposed to do.

    What happens if you go to therapy and their recommendation is I relax? Does relaxation related activities then become what they are supposed to do?

    There’s definitely a loop hole in here somewhere.

      You will then think about how you’re supposed to be relaxing but aren’t, which will spike your anxiety.
