When you feel overwhelmed – what exactly is happening? Why does the body decide to react this way?

When several problems all arise at once. I typically start to feel very overwhelmed. I’m curious what’s happening and trying to understand what my body/ instincts are indicating I should do.

First Rage. Then Frustration. Then thought. Then calm. Then organizing the order of tasks. Then complete the tasks.

Just accept it. Go find a buddy (that’s OK with it) and yell at them for a bit. That usually gets rid of the first two. Then fix it. It’s not fun, but that’s how humans work.

Avoid punching things. That’s how you get a boxer’s fracture. It’s not my first rodeo. It took me 20 years to stop doing that. I don’t like boxer’s fractures. If you’re going to punch, count the studs at 16″ on center. That will force you to calm down because you have to think to do it.

YMMV
