A HSP needs lots of quiet time,space, and freedom. If this sounds...
You can drink, rest and do nothing !
Meet your friends some time to time, and just no worries.
I am wondering why are you afraid ?
I love weekends when i have nothing planned. I love the feeling on driving home on friday and knowing i can relax and have no specific schedule for the next 2 days.
I dont like weekends when i have some obligations to attend, like a family gathering. This means i will think about it the whole week before, then feel like my weekend is ruined.
A while back, I used to feel a bit anxious about weekends, because i had this weird expectation i should do SOMETHING. Like a specific hobby , something productive, something special or officially fun. It kind of felt like weekend homework, just to have something to report on monday! (ohh! me? I did THIS on the weekend!!) .
Lately i have let go of this expectation and the pressure that goes with it. I decided i do enough during the week, and i am allowed to do NOTHING during the weekend and not worry about it. My new weekend homework is to take afternoon naps!
I really love your reply!! I agree that there is some sort of "pressure" to actually DO something special on the weekend. People seem to expect some great answer! I used to feel.somewhat embarrassed when I had nothing to report. Now I don't care.
It feels great to let go of these expectations and not feel embarassed about a nice quiet weekend.
It means it can be the next week end or the week end in 3 weeks...
But i have to say when I do something nice, I feel much better than doing nothing sometimes...
It means you are happier working than having free time. You need to find and do the things which will make you happy.
That's currently me. And I am stuck as it is really hard to find what you like in life.
At the moment, I know cinema makes me happy.
I like to learn, so I will focus on my degree.
Maybe during this time, I will find things that makes me happy.
All my week ends are similar, not very satisfying in the end, but I don't know how to change that.
I am struggling so much with my feelings, I don't think to other things.
