this has to do with self-esteem and i brought it up at a support meeting: in this world all adults ( and kids) are supposed to be multi-tasking all the time-
My point is that struggling with mental health issues and just folding the wash IS multi-tasking sometimes. . .on the outside people cant see the mental energy we're using to stay in the present and not get distracted and disoriented so they may say "all you did was fold?" but thats not all we"re doing while our minds are working at many different levels. We need to give all ourselves credit for being the multi-taskers under cover that we are.
