Multi-tasking Is Making You Sick

In our ADD society is full of work and distractions, time management is a necessity. Multi tasking is the only way to get things done. But does it really help us? Or does it help corporations rake in more money at the end of the day. Time is money, as they say.
The more tasks we try to do at once, the worse the results will be. Jobs are always done better when you focus your whole attention to them. For instance, lets say you want to make a fancy dinner. Do you do make good food while watching TV and talking on the phone, as well as finishing up some paper work? Or do you do a better job when you take your time and give your full attention.

We often try to drug ourselves to keep up with the fast pace of everyday life. It can be very overwhelming. The anxiety can really take its toll on our mental and physical health. You worry about how you're going to pay the bills, which makes it hard to dose off, so you take sleeping pills. You feel tired all day so you consume large quantities of caffeine. Then when you feel edgy from the stress there is the anti depressant/anxiety medication. (A more recreational form of this is Alcohol or marijuana) When it's hard to concentrate because your mind is trying to focus on a million things at once there's ADD drug therapy.

It's a drug crazed pattern that's easy to get into because we all want a quick fix. But like all instant gratification, once it wears off you fell empty and you need twice as much the second time round.

The easiest solution to this problem is to look at what's causing these symptoms in the first place. Don't let a company tell you that there's something wrong with you, that can only a magic pill can fix. The problem isn't you, it's the corrupt world we live in. You need rest. You can't do a perfect job when your focusing on ten other things. Human beings are not machines. If we are tired we need sleep, not pills. If we're panicked and rushed we need to slow down; not take pills so we can speed up.

If you are a person who just can't seem to keep up, please don't drug your self. Talk to someone experienced who doesn't get kick backs from the drug companies for pushing drugs. Your therapist should be your life coach, not your drug dealer!
