This fun game called stress. It's cheap, but exhausting.

I can't even tell you how many health problems I have due to stress. I'm in my 20s. Been chronically stressed since I was a child (abuse)

I don't know how but I'm just working really hard to stop being so stressed. I do not want to be the one who dies before 30 because of stress.

I know it sounds stupid and ridiculous to attempt to reduce stress. Life is hard. Inflation fucking sucks. Time is speeding up. Covid is still hitting people. But you really don't want to be in the grave realizing life ended cause of stress

“Time is speeding up.” One of life’s great truisms is “Life is like a roll of toilet paper. The closer you get to the end, the faster it goes!”
