You're swimming in a lake. The water is a little cold, but you know once you give it time that you'll become acclimated. Just gotta push through the beginining. You start swimming at a leisurely pace, stretching your limbs and working up to the speed you're used to. Slowly it becomes apparent that unless you start swimming faster, you'll never get anywhere. The water is getting rough and the current is too strong for you to keep up with. The sinking feeling of realization begins to manifest. You're drowing. You're trying as hard as you can with every fiber of your being to fight it. Thrashing and kicking with all the power you can muster beneath the waves but the water keeps escalading over your head...filling your lungs. Consuming you. You gasp and gulp for air but none of it is sufficient. You can't survive like this.
This. This is how I feel right now. (with a little artistic overexaggeration ;))
