I had never known what is called emotional energy? Until I myself faced the lack of it. Since the past few days I have been feeling drained – I guessed that I was low on what is called emotional energy; tried looking up the net for it . . . . . and found that it was exactly what I had been facing
“Call it a personal energy crisis. On the surface, your life seems full enough—maybe even too full—yet you're running on empty. You feel stretched thin, stressed-out, drained”
I don’t know what has triggered this. I have always been a pretty responsible person, rather I pull responsibilities to myself (am a fool in that sense if you may say so). Discussing issues (or arguing if you want to call it that) is a sport to me – It doesn’t drain me but energizes me further. I hardly give up before the person in front of me either walks away or is convinced of my side. That might not be good as such .. but the point is, I have a large storehouse of energy latent. There have been days when I don’t sleep for 48 hours in continuously and yet can survive. On the very first day of my summer internship I had spent only 8 hours out of past 48 sleeping . . . and yet I ran for the next whole week . . . without trouble
But the past 3 days have been radically different. I am sleeping . . .much more than I usually do, and yet when I wake up I feel drained … I feel heavy during evenings which otherwise are my most active times . . . I have been delegating my usual responsibilities to others – leave alone taking up new ones. And discussions? I don’t know whether others have noticed but I am shying away from getting involved, leave alone discussing. . . non-committal about everything
Is this a change settling in me . . or is it a temporary phase . . God !! whatever it is .. why at this critical moment ? with exams lined up in the next week and following exams is MastishK . . can I afford to continue like this ? I am not even feeling like attending classes . . not that I need to.. I have enough attendance but the problem is energy . . even if I stay in the room I don’t do anything . .
I need an emotional booster .. don’t even know what it means but I need it . . . probably getting back to studies and developing some confidence might help . . . let me hope that my next post will be in “good health”. Amen!
