There were a lot of things on my plate, but it wasn't anything I couldn't handle. It never gets to that point. Anything that comes my way is dealt with immediately. Maybe it's not attended to, but it's at least considered. I triage everything. But then, today, I mistakenly thought I had another chemistry lab write up due tomorrow that I had completely forgotten.
And that was the straw.
I just sort of shut down for a few minutes. Five, maybe ten. I just sat there and silently freaked out. It was a real "all systems: fuck" sort of thing. For a few minutes, I was convinced I wouldn't be able to do anything and that it was just all too much. For a few minutes, I was completely overwhelmed. And it was a bad feeling because I never am. I refuse to believe it's possible. So I kicked myself and got to work putting things in order and set up the rest of my night.Then, I was allowed to start chewing again. Which, admittedly, I do not like as much as I imagined I would. It feels weird since I haven't done it in so long, but I'm mostly okay with that. I will endeavor to persevere.I also don't like life all that much. It's not nearly as good as Planet Earth.

(although Oprah was NOT the voice they needed to make it epic. A Real shame there.)
