Original Advice
“DONT: Don't text when overwhelmed; breathe first.”
Put the Phone Down, Twin
Your impulse is to fix the mood by flooding the thread. You reach for the keyboard like a fire alarm, and then regret arrives with the read receipts. Every frantic bubble dilutes what you actually feel. When overwhelmed, your words turn into smoke signals no one can read. Put the phone down. Breathe. Let the heat drop before you turn your feelings into evidence.
Your wiring is mercurial: fast, sparkling, restless. Under surge, speed becomes static. The nervous system shouts; the message warps. Breath isn’t a luxury; it’s a reset button for language. Oxygen slows the storm so intention can catch up with vocabulary. When you wait, you choose. When you type hot, you bruise. Prioritize signal over noise. Send fewer words with more weight.
Cosmic Context
