Why do basic tasks like replying to messages feel overwhelming at times?

[Hazel]

Do unread messages ever build up simply because responding feels mentally heavy? What helps you break that avoidance cycle?

I've experienced that too. When I'm mentally drained or juggling too many things, even simple tasks like replying to messages can feel like they require more energy than they should. It's usually less about the task itself and more about overall mental and emotional overload.
