Yeah I'm definitely finding it hard to relax. There's always this nagging in the back of my mind "you're wasting time, do something more productive".
It sucks and I don't know how to stop.
I often feel like I'm "not allowed" to do nothing, especially when there is housework or similar I "should" be doing. I feel enormous guilt at the "wasted time," even though it's actually really important. My parents especially would have frowned at the periodic inactivity, but they aren't living my life.
