I have a general problem with not being able to align "I want to do this" with "I am making plans to do this" with "I enjoyed that"
And had the same feelings with game jams. I'd look forward to them, then feel bad while doing them, then look forward to the next one. Which I suppose is better than the normal depression behavior of looking forward to nothing and planning nothing.
