  How bout a prescription to stop doom scrolling. I feel like it’d take at least that to get my damn phone out of my hands.

  HR also told me after I got diagnosed with stress due to work. Then made a follow up meeting to see what I was doing on my spare time to reduce my stress.

  Job searching, that’s what I was doing.

    Isn’t job searching famously stressful?

      Yes, it is. But unlike a few years ago I don’t have to go through every hoop because I needed to afford food, I’m going for an improvement. And there’s something cathartic to be applying for jobs during my current work hours.

      It’s a lot less stressful when it’s on your own terms

  I’m not usually saying it to the patient, I’m saying it to their family. On occasion I will tell the patient in the sense of “you shouldn’t feel bad for telling your family to fuck off respect your boundaries, you deserve to take care of yourself.”

  I don’t think they mean “stop surviving”. They mean, if something extra would normally be extra stressful, like going to a friend’s wedding or hosting in laws for a week, tell them no. Or even just tell your boss “no” now and then. Say you can’t get that done in a week, refuse an unreasonable request here and there.

  If you already are doing the bare minimum and still suffering stress… Wtf? Most people doing the bare minimum aren’t that stressed.

    Most people doing the bare minimum are overwhelmed with the pressure of living paycheck to paycheck. Times are tough, especially when you do not have a financial fallback, are ill, and are making Min wage.

  You can though.

    Things like such and such just used your tax dollars to reduce an entire educational facility full of pupils to rubble…as you drive to work over a road full of potholes and have no mass transit so if your car gets screwed up you’re done. Specially if you’re living paycheck to paycheck.

  It’s more like whatever is gonna happen is gonna happen regardless of how you feel about it so you can stress or you can chill and whatever is gonna be is gonna be regardless.

    This is the key. I was also like OPs post, super anxious and worried about everything.

    Then I realized (with the help of therapy) that my worrying might be justified, yet it doesn’t benefit me at all. As you say, the things I beyond my control will happen anyway, so why stress abou them. And the things I control I can achieve with less mental effort, if I stop the constant worrying and overthinking.

      Exactly. For me in my early 20’s it was a handful of moments of having extreme stress about a possibly bad outcome, Sometimes for weeks only for said scenario (while possible) to never come to pass.

  I was too far into lemmy/scrolling, but not like any TikTok/facebook/etc. I think I just got dopamine burnout. One o got antidepressants, it was so much better for my mental health.

  I mean… You can. Just not for longer than 3 days or so before you die from dehydration.
