I understand this. I try to keep a balance between scheduled and free time on my calendar. It comes down to trusting myself to do what needs to be done, but myself can be ornery and just refuse to be productive. I've spent the first few weeks of this month forcing myself to get organized, which made my Friday seem more like TGIF than it usually does. 🍻
I find i don’t do well with too much unscheduled time. Even at work. My adhd will have me spinning in circles. in fact today, I woke up from a nap in the middle of the day. I realized I didn’t know what to do with myself, so I offered Cheryl help in the kitchen and she put me to work! Ha ha.

Yes it is nice to start the weekend without evidence of all the stuff we let fall over the week... ;)

Unscheduled, open time can easily fall prey to doomscrolling. Do you manage to keep yourself busy or do you rely on others to do it for you?
I think I'm allergic to others telling me what to do. 🥴
Not always, but I suppose I do welcome it if i’m spiraling without direction. 🤔
