Imagine having both ๐ฅฒ
I don't have to imagine unfortunately. But the need for structure vs the need for change balances out juuuust enough that it's like I'm almost normal.
Yeah I meant to communicate that I had the same issue. It's a "fun" combination
Is that just an internal battle constantly
Yes. For me, more and more so for the last few years it just starts to turn into freezing. I get stuck. My mind is racing and thinking of all the things I "could" do and instead I just sit motionless and borderline unable to move by my own will trapt in thought.
Like scrolling through My List on streaming media instead of watching anything!
I've literally done that for like 40 minutes on Netflix, but my Steam game library is even worse.
My List is where good movies and shows go to be ignored so I can pick something random not on the list that I have zero expectations of being good to avoid being disappointed.
Why imagine when it's already my waking nightmare? ๐๐ญ
