Dread. It hit's you around eight or nine o'clock on Sunday night. You don't know why. Just something it's right in your life. Monday is just a few hours away, and even closer if you think about how fast the night sleep with pass by. A long week a head to do a thousand or more things that you might never be able to accomplish. I've felt this a lot of times. When youth group would end and I would have to wake up in the morning and go to school. I would just think, "Why do I have to do this. What has my life come to?" Always later, upon realizing the ridiculousness of my questions, I would think about how this is just life. But, in the moment you think only the worst about your situation. Nothing makes it better.
I thought I had invented the idea of Sunday Night Syndrome, however, after some research I found I was mistaken. The articles I read basically say what I was thinking in my head, I could be a doctor. Sunday Night Syndrome is not really a condition but a state of emotional dread, stress, along with a mixture of other random things that make you feel like complete crap the last night of your weekend. It's detrimental to the last night of enjoyment/weekend. However, Sunday night is a school night, leaving it in some sort of weekday/weekend limbo; where does it fit?
If you feel like this is something that you deal with, I know that I think I do. Remember that, well, life is life. I'm not saying you need to suck it up and deal with it. I'm saying you need to check yourself in the mirror and make sure your happy with where your at in life. If you need to change something, or if you just need a change of pace. If you need something, e-mail/call/facebook me. I'd love to talk.
