What do you do when you are overwhelmed and there are just no words....?

I love going for a drive by the beach. I'll stop at a convenience store and get a snack, usually a doughnut, and a Diet Coke. Then it's good music and and nice drive. Here is a picture from a couple of days ago.

I go for a drive and put my music on full blast 😒

It depends. If I'm trying to help someone, I ask God to give me the words. If I'm just feeling swamped and stressed, I take myself out for coffee.

Treadmill with music blasting.

If around someone I know it would be a hug but if not, I take myself somewhere alone, sometimes just trying find somewhere I can be alone, if there isn't one available, can help too by taking my mind off of things.

Sometimes it's music

Sometimes it's talking

Sometimes it's something else

It all depends on what I'm overwhelmed about? Death of a loved one, Stress, Morons, Work and on and on.

Sleep

I TRY to relax. Sometimes, binge watching PBS television shows like Belgravia, or something like that...shallow and simple.

Mostly I block it out and ignore it until I have therapist appointment

I go for a long walk in the woods.

Take a long walk if possible. May alleviate some pressure.

Music. Put the ear buds in and try to go somewhere else.

Solitude and quiet.

Remove myself from the situation physically or mentally via workout endorphins

Honestly, I usually go off. I need to be better though. Actively working on it.

Get naked, light a joint and chilllll

Listen to music in the car or on YouTube.

I pour a drink

Hide

I meditate, put on music, do something to take my mind off of it
