I find somebody that I can call and I Say hey I am overwhelmed what that does Is it helps me make me feel not alone in My overwhelm which for some reason helps Me feel that I can sort of tackle Whatevers I'm dealing with sometimes They'll offer me some strategies but the Best thing is also when I'm feeling Overwhelmed to recognize that overwhelm Comes from looking at everything that I Have to do and thinking how am I going To get it all done and so my strategy For beating overwhelmed is to not look At everything but to look at one thing Okay I'm just going to do this one thing Think of it like a marathon it's very Hard to say I'm about to run 26 miles Absolutely overwhelming but you can say To yourself we can say to ourselves I'm Just gonna run one mile and then you run Another mile then you do so what I find The best solution to help me overcome Overwhelm is to actually get rid of all The stuff that's overwhelming me and get It to one thing that I can absolutely Take care of
