As I get older into adulthood I feel like more and more things require my attention. Trying to juggle work, family, home maintenance etc I'm constantly busy. I can almost never find time to rest because there is always something that has to be done. How do you find time to rest and cope with the stress but also get the things on your plate complete?

Not the answer I want to give but the honest answer is alcohol, video games, tv with my wife, sex, and tiktok. Anything that turns my brain off once I decide I have done enough work for the day. It isn't a great way to live and I hope to get out of it after I pass my prelimary exams.

This is exactly me. I wish I could do something more meaningful when it hits 8pm, and the alcohol isn't good for me in the long run, but doing something that has be completely disconnected from my responsibilities for 1-2 hours at night keeps me recharged the rest of the time.
