now I don’t remember if it was a video or article I saw that said “the psychological value of ‘wasted time’ “…. I couldn’t bring myself to absorb it, I have enough trouble with wasted time and procrastination
that being said, I think there is some utility to it. Time is the dirt I bury my secrets in
It kind of tied into a theme I was working on in therapy today; frantic work isn’t productive, so sometimes I have to choose peace over meaning, and that’s counter intuitive
but I spent so long chasing meaning in life, and eventually I was working for the sake of work, for the sake of productivity, and that’s how I set up my current collapse. I think I’m in a corrective period now, so what I’m saying is I’ll take procrastination, it’s less toxic than anxious “work”, which isn’t really work, it’s unproductivity that is also stressful.

That is true. Actually avoiding something these past few months has probably fucked up me going to school. I don’t know how things will pan out.
