I was talking to some friends once on a Sunday and they were being a bit quiet so I asked what was up and they said they had the “Sunday Scaries.” I had to inquire what the sunday scaries were and bashfully noted that I’ve never felt that before. Made me realize how much I love doing what I do!
I used to have that every day of the week. Anxiety attacks were my alarm clock, typically 2 hours before I needed to be up with no chance of getting back to sleep. I stuck it out for 2 years.
Now when I start getting that I make note. If it continues for more than a few months, I quit. (I’ve never been stable even when I took shit, so what difference does it make?)
It’s not stable, but nothing about the present system is stable, and I’d rather be unstable on my terms than theirs.

Dang. I’ve heard of the Sunday sads, but scaries is a whole different level.

First time I heard the term was while listening to Mr Ballen back in the day.
