I wonder how many others suffer (yes, suffer) from this, and I wonder if there is an actual name for the experience.

Often (usually? always?) when I am tasked with something repetitive that I find tedious my brain and body feels like I am going to completely come undone.

Literally, like I will explode if I do not get up and get as far away from it as possible.

A silly example: my wife asks me to finely chop up a whole bunch (I don't technically know what quantity is a bunch - but it was a bunch!) of cilantro. I want to do my part, so I begin the process. After an agonizing 30 seconds - which felt like an eternity - I had to vacate the kitchen and run some laps through the house and them come back to try again. After a couple of cycles just like this I was excused from the task.

Again, anything that is repetitive and tedious makes me want to climb the walls. This same feeling overpowers me sometimes when I'm typing, too. Like right now.

Please tell me there are others who experience this. What is it like for you?
