miller,
If you can tolerate all that activity and drinking alcohol included, you are doing well.
When I mentioned learning how to recognize hitting your limit, in my experience, there are a variety of signs. A change in sound sensitivity. A feeling like you need to shake the cobwebs out. A need to look a little harder. A change in emotional senses.
So, slow down and pay attention to the various senses. When you sense a change, maybe you have hit your limit.
For others who do not sense these changes, you have to use your experiences and memory. If doing 30 minutes of an activity takes a long recovery, try 15 minutes and so how strong your symptoms are.
I spent years just knowing I had limits and expecting to need time to recover if I pushed those limits. I did not get angry or stressed when I went past my limits. I expected that I was at risk of pushing past my limit.
So, give yourselves room to overdo it and need time to recover. Do it over and over and slowly, over weeks or months, things will get better.
