I'm right there with you.
I have work to do and sometimes it feels like an insurmountable mountain, so I alt+tab to something else for a little respite.
But I can tell it is self-destructive behavior. Maybe acknowledging it is the first step.
- ajkjk 5y agoyeah it really is. Your time would be well spent investigating it, maybe on a long walk. Be honest to yourself that you don't really want to do it (or you'd be doing it). Then ask yourself: okay, if you don't want to do it, why not change something up, or quit? is there anything you want to be doing? if not, then be honest about it and just do nothing for a while -- eventually you will want to do something again and it'll be an honest desire that you can act on. Years are ticking by of your life where you barely do what you're 'supposed to' but spend most of your mental energy distracting yourself; there's got to be a better way to live. [obviously I am also talking to myself here...]
