Most times life throw hectic situations in us and we look downhearted that doesn't mean we are mentally ill, personal I take some time off, I visited places that help my thoughts and energize me to move on and finally I am always grateful knowing that life is a gift.
Thank you 

Well said, I love your thought. Our battery will be expiring. We can recharge before it totally damage. So take a break and remove all the connections to keep it last longer.

You are coping well as this is the right attitude to have and only attitude. Hive is my me time and helps make me think through important decisions I am faced with. I get where you are at as I have had it for 2 years now with my business being on hold for a number of reasons. The pressure is still there as it is trying to keep onto the business you still have without pissing people off.

I'm glad you're addressing it as this neglected and dragged on can lead to bigger problems. Been there, done that and you're always paying the price. Now the ideal solution would be to eliminate the stress factors from your life, but that is not always possible, so you need a way to reduce it somehow. 

Finding ways to relax or doing things that make you happy is also necessary.  Unfortunately only you know what you can cut out of your life and what are the things that help you relax and recharge your batteries. 

Take care of yourself as healthy is the most important thing. 

Everyone has needs, according to my thinking nowadays a break to disconnect is mandatory, we are like batteries,each so much need to be recharged, nice post anyway!!!

It is good to think more on positive things than those nagative things. Giving ourselves break shows we love ourselves, if we fail to do it now, we surely pay for it later. Life is give and take. What a good way to meditate during break by turning off all the phones. Great lesson for hivers.

I am leaning a bit into Stoicism, Taoism, and other schools of philosophical thought as well as theology and practical steps toward preparedness and independence. I'm just glad my job is generally not too grating despite my introverted tendencies. People are usually grateful for librarians, after all. It makes work life a lot easier.

I suggest the [History of Philosophy podcast](https://historyofphilosophy.net/) for a nice overview of how people have explored the answers to these questions since before Socrates.

Galen, I read you, and you are taking steps for your mental and emotional well-being. Personally, I base my method on these steps: process, accept, convert, observe, express, and channel my emotions... so that they flow and allow me to go on with my life. I like to think that EVERYTHING HAPPENS! 

As our years run out we tend to question more. 

Work becoming over committed, eats into the soul, is destroying many trying to keep up. When working 8 to 4 one felt the squeeze, never taking proper breaks, now when tired behind the desk, actively go outdoors finding solace under the sky on my own.

Sounds like a full one or two month break would assist in adjusting, most are unable to afford. 

Minds and lives are cluttered, finding the right balance, mine is switching off from much including phone calls or people who interrupt one constantly. Sit on the corner of the bed for ten minutes after a shower in front of a fan allowing my mind to empty and go to a happy place!

Hope you find what you seeking!

This is my method first confidence in myself, I make sure i bond my minds with things that gives me joy so I can think well because most times the mind need a quiet place to get things together.

A word of advice to others is that, Life has it ups and downs. No matter what you are going through never go up. Never stop striving! 

I see more and more people feeling like you and me; completely exhausted for whatever reason. I used to relieve stress through different sports, but that isn't working anymore other than adding even more exhaustion.

Could it be that internet is just now impacting our lives with too much information that won't let us focus and admire little things? 

Second post I read and second very interesting post from which to draw many ideas. One of my habits is to say thank you for three good things about my day before going to sleep. Laattina instead when I wake up I avoid picking up the phone for the first half hour of the day, I give myself a few minutes to wake up, a nice and hearty breakfast for me and I prepare it for my wife who gets up a little later. I really like the idea of ​​calling a friend every day at the start of the day, I'll try to make it a habit of mine too. Thanks for sharing and for the beautiful post.

Being in the nature. This gives a relaxing and peaceful feeling. But focusing, thinking about and being with what you love helps the most. I love my Harris's hawk. I can spend the entire day walking with her on my arm. I literally sleep with her in the nights.

Finding, doing, being with what you love helps the most.
