Brain today was discouraged and tired and bouncing back and forth from things like a ping pong ball and really stuck a little bit in ancient Egypt but mostly trying to draw spirally flowers but the dots wouldn't work right and all focused on how lungs didn't burn like that when I ran a week ago and really didn't want to talk to anyone that was going to respond because brain did not want to hear other peoples' opinions. Brain wants to get better and remember things but that didn't happen.

But that description is lengthy and deep and metaphorical and easily summarized with "pft."
This was actually a text I sent to a friend to try and explain how an injury has affected my mental health recently. It was my first day back in training and I really couldn't keep up with people and I held back my team and it was both physically and mentally difficult. On top of that, I am dealing with exams and all I want to do is paint pictures so it's an interesting situation. Please comment :)
