Does this sound like the set of challenges you might be facing?

• I run on autopilot from one thing to the next and only realize how wound up I am once I’ve snapped at someone
• I run on autopilot all day and the stress just quietly stacks up unnoticed until I’m suddenly snapping or fried
• I run on autopilot from morning till I crash at night, and if you stopped me midday and asked how I’m feeling I’d genuinely have no idea
• I do the same everyday things
• Every hour of my week is booked back-to-back, so the moment anything runs over the whole day cascades into lateness and panic
