Right now

What’s going on?

No promise, no streak, nothing to keep. A few minutes to come down, and your era waits — today doesn’t count against you for being here.

I’m overwhelmedToo much at once. Nothing has to be solved in the next three minutes.I can’t focusUsually too many open things, not a broken brain.I can’t calm downYou can’t decide to be calm. You can change how you’re breathing.I can’t sleepYour head is still holding tomorrow. Let’s put it down.

This is a few minutes of breathing and attention, not treatment. If things are worse than that, please talk to someone who can help — a doctor, a crisis line, or someone who loves you.
