Can’t settle to anything

[OTTYrevolution]

Is anyone else finding they can’t settle to any sort of activity? I don’t know whether it’s this lockdown dragging or something else. I’m just.. finding it difficult to know what to do with myself when I’m not sleeping

Yes Ive noticed this lately.

I feel like cant concentrate on anything for any lenght of time, for example I say to myself I will read for a while but then cant seem to settle into it.

Its almost like a restlessness.

I think its due to living in a goldfish bowl since covid & my brain is adjusting accordingly!

This is so me atm. Cannot concentrate on anything...its driving me mad

Anyone got any tips for dragging yourself out of that deep black hole of.. ‘meh’ness

Groundhog Day here too - the same bloody thing every day.
I've even dug out our ancient Wii tonight as I'm so bored!

@dane8 I have that full of adrenaline feeling. Like I am itching to run or dance (? I don't dance) or just laugh really loud or scream. I feel very full of something but there is no way to empty myself

Yes very much so. I only seem to be able to sit and watch trash and even then I’m scrolling through mumsnet.
It’s like my brain is overloaded and can’t take focusing on one thing - like I need to be constantly distracted by multiple things

Cannot tell you how much comfort its just brought me reading this. Completely agree with everything, the feeling of waiting for something to happen and just feeling like I could scream or burst or something 🤔 and at night, not being able to switch off at all. I'm so lucky that my family and I are safe at home but yet I don't feel safe or calm...
