Hi

Hi, It sounds like you're experiencing significant anxiety and overwhelm when facing new tasks or situations, which can make it difficult to feel productive or engaged in your daily life. To address these feelings, consider implementing some practical strategies. First, break tasks into smaller, manageable steps—this can reduce the pressure and help you start without feeling overwhelmed. Setting realistic goals for each day, along with a prioritised to-do list, can instill a sense of accomplishment as you check off completed tasks. Additionally, practice mindfulness or relaxation techniques, such as deep breathing or meditation, which can help ground you and reduce anxiety in the moment. When it comes to communication, try to pause and gather your thoughts before speaking; you might also practice expressing yourself in a low-pressure setting, like journaling or talking to a supportive friend. If feelings of anxiety persist, seeking support from a mental health professional can offer personalized strategies and tools to help you manage these challenges more effectively. Remember, it’s okay to take small steps toward improvement, and over time, you may find it easier to navigate new experiences.

What you’re experiencing sounds like a combination of anticipatory anxiety and cognitive overload, which is very common when there’s a fear of not being able to handle new tasks or situations. The physical response—like feeling the urge to go to the toilet—is your body’s way of reacting to perceived stress. This often happens when the mind feels overwhelmed with too many thoughts or expectations, especially in high-pressure environments like work. The feeling of time slipping by without a sense of achievement can further deepen this anxiety loop, making it harder to break free and take action. To manage this, start with small, structured steps. Use behavioral activation by breaking tasks into tiny, manageable actions—just opening a file or writing one sentence is progress. Challenge your anxious thoughts with evidence-based reasoning and write them down in a thought record sheet. Practice grounding techniques like deep breathing before meetings or speaking. Set realistic daily goals and track even small wins to rebuild confidence. Over time, this consistent approach will help you regain clarity, reduce anxiety, and feel more in control of your day.

This experience of feeling blocked or paralyzed by anxiety before even beginning something new, including daily tasks like going to the toilet or speaking, points to a deeper sense of stress and perhaps even a fear of failure or judgment. It’s also possible that the constant overwhelm of multiple tasks and the pressure to perform are contributing to this feeling of being "stuck."

It could be due to various reasons.. It is better to seek a professional support to overcome this issue and to get a clarity and understanding about yourself.. Consult a psychological Counselor cum Life Coach for an individual therapy..

Hi...It appears to be a burnout. This can occur due to various reasons including, but not limited to, toxic work culture, lack of opportunities for growth, poor routine, toxic boss, team or colleagues, monotonous work, excessive workload with limited or no support, etc. If you are feeling overwhelmed you can take a break. Smaller one like a week long holiday or a break from this company by making a switch. If this feeling is persistent even in your personal life than you need to identify the triggers and the root causes. Try following a healthy routine, i.e., healthy and timely meals, sleep, exercise, and breathing/ meditation. This will help keep your mind and body in check and provide you with the necessary physical and mental energy to deal with your situation.
