In Over My Head

Have you ever felt like you were drowning? In a deep hole?  If not, call me, email me, comment below....I need help. This is definitely not the first time I've experienced the feeling off being absolutely overwhelmed, but I don't feel like this is something that I've learned from in the past.  I just don't handle it well.

At this particular time, I'm overwhelmed at home and at school. It's not one or the other, it seems to permeate every aspect of my life. I recognize it - that's not the problem.  I'm not in denial - I know that I have a lot going on right now and I'm not getting everything done in the manner I should.  I can tell you what I'm not: I'm not being fruitful; I'm not being kind; I'm not being gentle; I'm not being loving; I'm not being joyful; I'm patient; I'm not being productive either.  

I want to crawl deeper in my hole. BUT, I know that won't solve the problems.  In reality, it will only compound them. Thus digging my hole deeper.  

So, where do I go from here. I think the first step is realizing it and admitting it. After that? BUT...here I am blogging about being overwhelmed rather than making a dent in the never ending list of things that need to be done.
