It feels like everything is slowed down and nothing happens. I try to fill the time up with my hobbies and interests but can't because they don't feel satisfying on the weekend.

I found DBT tremendously helpful for learning how to navigate unstructured territory without becoming agitated by it. I have noticed my frustration tends to build up because I resist feeling uncomfortable, not because I am actually just uncomfortable. It’s counterintuitive and takes practice but it’s been eye opening how much something as deceptively simple as “accept discomfort” actually helps.
