Had my lunch and took a nap, but when I got up, it was already late evening. Again, job search, emails, refresh, but nothing seems to happen. Just to calm my mind, I went out for a while. But when I entered home, even before dinner, my overthinking was ready to serve. It's already 2 AM. No sleep, no clarity, just drowning in my own thoughts. Routine gone, direction gone, this is my new journey, trying to rebuild myself from scratch."
