Deadlines

Does it ever feel like time is running out? Constant deadlines, but not enough time to meet them all. Sometimes it can be overwhelming. You ever feel like no matter what you do it's never enough? You stay awake for days trying to meet each deadline? Do you dream about missing deadlines? It's a neverending cycle of deadlines.

I wish I could provide advice on how to overcome this constant struggle to meet deadlines. Sadly, I'm the latest victim. I feel like I'm drowning in priorities. Where do I begin? I constantly push myself but it's not enough anymore. I wake up frustrated and go to sleep frustrated. Somedays I believe that I don't deserve a break. Why should I get a break when I have multiple upcoming deadlines staring at me? When does it stop? Does it ever stop? I've lost sight of everything that I care about. Is that normal? I stay up all night trying to catch up but I'm still drowning. Make it stop. I want to breathe. I need to breathe. I'm just so tired of the deadlines. Why can't I just be happy? Instead, I have deadlines hanging over me.

Some may say I've taken on too many responsibilities. They may be right, but then again what do they really know about me? Do they even know me? Do I know me? What's my limit? When's my breaking point? Those are questions no one knows the answer to, so where I am now?

Oh right, I'm still stuck with the deadlines.
