I’m learning more about myself. At least I’m understanding more about why I am the way I am.
Hit me today while I was getting my nails done that “exerting myself socially” can be something as small and seemingly low-effort as simply being around other people. Getting my nails done is nice - I’m sitting in a massage chair, having someone massage my feet, paint my nails, and I still wound up thinking “I’m exhausted. I’m done now” and counting down how much longer until I was done.
Turns out 3 hours of “social interaction” is about my current limit. Don’t know if it’s possible to extend that, somehow. Practice? Rest? Does it vary by the day? Data will help but I’m not even sure where to get the data.
