“Circle back to” and “sense of urgency” set me on edge. I’m constantly shelving stuff to get back to it later and pretty much always concerned that I’m not “doing good enough” or quickly enough so I don’t need faceless suits throwing my symptoms like buzz words around so casually.

I’ve been on this planet for nearly three and a half decades, and this tiny comment just made a lot of things click for me. I’m gonna try and see a professional, I’ve got a lot to unpack.
