Gaah! It's not just audiobooks or podcasts. It's ongoing. However, I managed to listen to a few chapters of an audiobook without too much trouble today. But it's kind of a weird mindfulness exercise.

I thought maybe instead of fighting I should embrace it. But as an extreme introvert it's only available to me in written form, and for one, writing in French takes prohibitive amounts of time for me... I hope that if I do it some pressure will be released. Except to find a way. I don't have a place to write in French. And you know, I don't want some random forum where I actually could be ostracized for my poor French...

Or maybe the "mindfulness" term could be key...
