I think I have an issue with finding value in productivity. I try to always be doing something if I'm not working. I'll go to the gym, surf, work around the house, hang out with friends, play pickleball, etc. I treat all of this as being productive, essentially doing anything rather than laying down and watching a movie/show or scrolling instagram. I have my own business so I work flexible hours daily, allowing me to flow seamlessly from work, to gym, to work, to surf for example and that will be an entire day. I get really bad FOMO if I'm not being productive, I will feel anxiety that I should be doing something productive, ANYTHING. I know I need to relax and unwind sometimes and I do but it doesn't feel like I'm relaxing because I have anxiety. Today is Sunday for example and I'm hungover and tired with no plans for the next 6 hours, and nothing pressing to do, but I have bad FOMO chilling around the house. Not to any specific thing that's going on, I just have occasional thoughts that I should be enjoying my life doing something I love outside or hang with my friends or dog even though I'm also tired and feel like I should relax at home. For reference, I'm going rock climbing with a friend in 6 hours but I still feel like I should be doing something till then. HELP ME ENJOY DOWN TIME!!! HELP ME RELAX!!!!! Note: I also have pretty bad ADHD
