> I also had to privately learn how to pace myself, setting realistic, appropriate and prioritized daily goals (nevermind the arm's-long TODO list). Checking myself against those, aiming for better goal-setting each day. Being able to close the laptop when it's done. I never really had a sense of "done" before, I had a lifetime of feeling always-behind. There's this peace, though, that comes with realizing that you _can_ prioritize effectively, do the things, then rest. That peace can become its own reward, which is bananas to me, because my unmedicated brain would never have felt that.
This is pretty much what I am working on, and I too have had followed the “burn out after getting diagnosed and medicated” arc.
Being able to set realistic, appropriate, and prioritized daily goals, and aiming for better goal-setting each day. Sounds like a good thing to aim for.,
I still don’t have a sense of “done”, and struggle to achieve that, even though I know I managed to move the needle a bit.
How long did it take you to get to this point? And how do you deal/ identify/ know you are “done”?
