So stressed out, though I don't want to initiate fuck it mode. Just feel like venting. being Potato kin is tough. No really, I just want to sleep for a week till everything goes back to normal. I mean I aint dieing but my space is so important to me, and I have not had it for almost 3 months.

Hope you can de-stress some though! Got any energetic physical activities you could work some out with?
For stress, have you heard of or listened to ASMR videos? If you don't know about ASMR, take a quick look on YouTube, and you'll find a ton of helpful relaxation videos that can help calm the mind. It is best to listen with headphones or earbuds, as some of the artists use binaural microphones to capture the audio for their videos.
From my observations on the furry fandom over the years, I've found that a lot of artists and everyday members of the community are HSPs (Highly Sensitive People)--they have these highly sensitive nervous systems with a proneness to overstimulation. Are you familiar with Bob Ross? He's the godfather of this ASMR phenomenon, with all sorts of canvas scratchings and brushings while he paints. Calms anxiety/stress and can help with sleep, too.
The last suggestion I have for you is walking until you are very worn out and exhausted. That should get rid of some of the excess energy. Hope you find this helpful!
This is actually really interesting. It sorta sounds like a type of music I like to listen too. thank you!
You're very welcome, and glad I could be of help!
