title: "Emotional breakdowns" | ||
description: "In this blog post I talk about a recent emotional breakdown that I had and how I'm processing it." | ||

||
Yesterday, | ||
I came back from work and had an emotional breakdown. | ||
I sat on the sofa and felt sad. | ||
I could not pinpoint the reason. | ||
I just felt low. | ||
I tried not to overthink it too much, | ||
but I couldn't avoid it. | ||
Why is it happening to me more often? | ||
Could it be something that comes with age? | ||
Or maybe the long-term consequences of the pandemic or the intense work that I did during that time? | ||
Perhaps it comes from putting pressure on myself regarding the success of Tuist as a company. | ||
|
||
Don't people say that solving a problem starts with acknowledging it? | ||
I feel I'm going through that phase. | ||
I'm trying to demand less from myself. | ||
|
||
Less perfection. | ||
Less pressure. | ||
Less being online. | ||
Less you need to succeed. | ||
Less pleasing everyone but myself. | ||
Less work taking all my mental space. | ||
|
||
I guess this is part of the journey of life. | ||
Learning about ourselves and our mental health. | ||
The largest disregarded part of our health. | ||
|
||
I'll prioritize the things that feel great in my brain. | ||
Running feels great on me. | ||
It's my meditation. | ||
It's the fresh air. | ||
At which moment did I deprioritize it? | ||
|
||
How do you deal with emotional breakdowns? | ||
