Yes but I have no clue what to do about it.
Find a hobby, an actually hobby and something else yo.occupy your time.
Gardening, where you can't force time, you have to plant something and wait, but not forget which is key
Anything that you like, but has to be a hobby
I got into yoga. It's physically exhausting and I need to focus on not falling over so my mind is "busy", but not on a mental treadmill.
Whenever I've gotten a fun hobby I just think about it all the time and it becomes so hard to focus on my job and even harder to force myself to do the same boring shit every day. Can't wait to get home too finally do something fun and interesting with my life.
