  • Hello?

  • So the other day I was having a hard time and I decided that I would go on a walk.

  • And while I was on my walk, I called my dad and I was like, I'm having a really hard time.

  • And he was like, why?

  • And I was like, because I just haven't gotten anything done in the past three days.

  • And he was like, who cares?

  • Who cares?

  • They even gotten anything done.

  • That's normal.

  • Like, sometimes you're just not gonna do anything for a few days.

  • And I was like, yeah, I know, but, like, I'm a fucking loser.

  • Like, I am a loser.

  • And he was like, no, you're not.

  • Like, it's normal human behavior to, like, not do anything for three days and to just, like, have certain days where you just can't get anything done except for, like, the bare minimum.

  • And I was like, yeah, I guess you're right.

  • But, like, it just makes me feel so bad about myself.

  • And he was like, you know, this is really weird because you've been like this since high school where anytime that you decide to take a break, or maybe you don't even decide to, anytime, you just take a break, like, you need to take a break and you just don't get anything done for a few days, you hate yourself.

  • And he was like, why do you feel like that?

  • You know?

  • Like, why is that such a bad thing?
