Latent sense of dread and inability to feel correctly absorbed into anything i do. Incredibly aware of time passing and feeling like at any point im using that time wrong but it doesnt matter what I do everything just feels incorrect. Also my body feels like a separate entity

I got three hours sleep. I'm supposed to help somebody to do errands today and I asked if we can do it tomorrow.

Overall my mood is quite good. I've learned a couple new skills in case I find anyone who'd like me to share them. I'm quite surprised the situation is this much better than I had anticipated an it's made me re-examine my own understanding of the world. Including sources I may have had neglected, due to unnoticed biases.
