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!

How to Quit an Addiction (no need to go to rehab!)

Well folks I finally accomplished my goal! I've beat the coffee addiction. After a few weeks of slowly weaning myself off of caffeine.... I quit!!

Tomorrows my first day of going caffeine free. I stopped getting headaches, I have all this energy, I'm not thirsty all the time... I can function!!! Many people in our modern society are hooked on medications they don't need. (these include stress relievers like beer and cigarettes) Coffee, although it's a mild stimulant, is still a drug. Caffeine causes burn out. If you want to quit any drug, wean your self off of it. If you have the will power to do so, its the easiest way. That way you experience very little withdrawal symptoms from it. Every time my caffeine wore off after supper I wanted to fall into a coma for a week. I never felt well rested. Now I can actually accomplish something without reaching for a cup.



TIP Did you know, that if you drank 100 cups of coffe in a day, you could violently die? You start having tremmers

How to quit drinking coffee addiction

I've been feeling like a bag of tired sludge these past few days. It's because I've been limiting the amount of coffee I've been consuming. I am going to end up throwing the shit out the window soon. It's so hard to quit. I feel burnt out all day. The best way to quit when your addicted is cold turkey. I'm not around coffee drinkers all day so that would make quitting easier. I just need to wait until the time is right. The withdrawals would be to hard on me now. I need to help my BF pay off some bills. It would feel like working hung over every day for two weeks. It takes two weeks for the withdrawal headaches, dizziness and drowziness to ware off. Blahhh

HOBBIES

Have hobbies, not addictions. There are allot of young people my age, that don't know what the hell a hobby is. They think hobbies include: video games, drinking, gambling, marijuana, sex, bar hopping and shopping. Now I'm no square. Believe me I do all those things. But they can be destructive to your mind and your wallet. There is more to life. Having hobbies are productive. They make you more creative and intelligent. They can even make you money if you're good at them.

When I quit drugs I had to leave all my old friends behind. For a while I was really depressed and useless. Then I met a guy that recently quit the party life style as well. He made me realize that you don't have to do those things to fit in. You can be wholesome and accomplish more. Know I'm as happy as I was as a kid. I feel content because I'm doing things for myself and not other people. I work at home and it's so comfortable. I have a better relationship with my family.

If you feel stressed, have a bubble bath, light some candles and play soft music. Learn how to build models. Make crafts and sell them online. Learn haw to cook gourmet meals. Read about something that has always interested you! Be creative instead of waiting for something to happen.

People are too pressured into fitting into a mold when it comes to entertainment. Fitting into a mold is stressful and time consuming. You need time to think and feel and be a human being! We all need to live more wholsomly. Going out to bars and shopping has its kicks but not if that's your only entertainment. Make your own fun.

"The less you live the more you consume." "The more you live the more you love." Love people and life. Kind of corn filled I know. But it's TRUE!!
