Safe Mode
Safe Mode is when you temporarily run only the essentials because your system feels overloaded. Just like a phone that's glitching or slowing down, you close extra applications, reduce background noise, and stop adding new demands so nothing crashes. It's not about solving everything or pretending nothing's wrong — it's about stabilizing. You lower expectations, simplify the day, and protect your energy until your system feels steady again.

Rather than reducing non-essential activities and protecting her energy until the legal matter resolved, she let the overload shut down everything.
