If you're not already in the habit, do your brain a favor and make something this week. Do something creative; something constructive. In whatever medium holds an interest for you. Even if it's small. In fact, especially if it's small.
Sketch out a couple panels of the comic you've always wanted to make. Write a scene of your novel or play. Crochet one granny square. Make pasta. Bake bread. Put some html files on a webserver.
And while you're at it: drink water, have a shower, take a walk, and get some sleep. Do the things that nourish you. Because, whatever else we are, humans are animals. Your brain and your body are amping each other up and just drenching each other in stress hormones. It's dark and cold, and there are monsters out there, somewhere. Animals don't handle that well. So show your body that it's warm and safe. And that there are still things you can control. You'll feel better. And then you can think clearly. And THEN, you can look ahead.
