Sorry for leaving things a while. As I share with you in this voice note, I've had a lot of anxiety recently and my nervous system has felt out of whack. Which has made it really hard to talk coherently. I chat to you about how much more there is to think about in modern life, compared to 'back in the day', y'know when we were hunter gatherers and didn't have to deal with an overload of news, decisions, different social interactions, debating about politics and structural inequalities, or what to buy our brother-in-law for Christmas.
OK, I know barely anything about hunter gatherers and the tribal life vibes. I don't even know how long ago that was. But I'm pretty sure they didn't have so much faff to process on a daily basis.
I talk about what happens to me when I get this system-overload. Perhaps this is related to being neurodivergent, but it's deffo a fact that no human brain is designed to process all this information and constant input. No wonder the world's going to pot!
