I know it's happened when I get a feeling of "schedule claustrophobia". If I find myself scrambling to get one commitment done before the next has to be started. What do I do? Well, first I tend to drop the things that don't involve commitments to other people (e.g., housecleaning, writing projects, etc. etc.). Then I grit my teeth and try to hold out until I've completed all existing commitments while valiantly trying to avoid taking on any more.
Yeah. Right. You know how well that one's worked out.
For me, over-commitment tends to come in waves. When it's been long enough that the claustrophobia has worn off, I start succumbing again to "that sounds like it'd be fun".
