Still not here a lot

jasonleow • 20 May 2026 •
After one year, still not here a lot, my brothers.
Still burned out.
Still trying to recover.
Still trying to scrape through the day.
Still not figured out how to get out of this rut.
It’s probably the longest ever I’ve been in a slump. And I’ve been in a lots of slumps. Some of you would know.
But I still write daily.
I still commit.
I show up.
Maybe one day when all is done and dusted, I will re-read this old post, and feel proud of sticking it through, despite it all.
That I still showed up. No matter what.
That’s all we can ask of from anyone, really.
Showing up.

@therealbrandonwilson Thanks brother! Yes, being able to keep a promise to myself helps in small and big ways.
Anxiety therapy? Hmmm. I’ll have a look!

#Teamstreak brother. Showing up every day because that is your commitment to yourself. I know you’ll get through it and get on the other side. I’d like you to try this short exercise a few times and see if it clears anything for you: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RmYs9RZoIq8
