Getting Unstuck

Gentle support for an overwhelmed mind

To-do list paralysis (n.): everything feels urgent and you don’t know where to start.

💡 Helpful tip: Keep this window open and your progress will be waiting for you (just take care not to accidentally close or refresh the page). You’ll be able to save, print, or screenshot your list at the end :)

When we feel overloaded, the parts of our brain responsible for planning, decision-making and following through become even harder to access. It’s like a vicious cycle that can leave us stuck — unable to start, unable to finish, and feeling increasingly anxious. Sound familiar?

I need you to know that this isn’t you failing and it isn’t a character flaw — it’s just too many tabs open at once. Let’s see if we can close a few, shall we?

Let’s get all those tasks out of your head and into the space below — then we’ll work through them step by step so you can see what actually needs your attention.

No refining or editing is needed — this is simply a place to set down all the things you’ve been frantically trying to remember.

Just four taps per task. Try to go with what feels right and not get caught up in overthinking. You can always start over if needed.

👥 Who’s affected

Well done! You just prioritised your to-do list!

Here’s what needs your attention, in order of what matters most. What felt chaotic hopefully feels a little calmer.

(Viewing just one task at a time is a good way to help keep overwhelm in check, but you have options to view your tasks in whichever way suits you.)
