Im going insane
The story
Im going insane. Im losing my mind. I am over complicating everything. My head is full of all these negative hateful awful feelings about people in my life and i know that its my brain projecting stress and irritation onto them and they havent done anything. I know that. Yet still my head is full of these awful thoughts and im just so upset. And i keep talking about it to people and i actually need to shut the fuck up because i am going to make everyone hate me because im talking about it too much. All the good things in my life are like drowning in little ittt bitty bad things. There are SO many good things in my life. So so many more happy exciting things. But then these little things that are upsetting me are just burrying those good things. But its all my fault everything is my fault. My problem. My actions. My ignorance. My choices. My procrastination. Everything is on me amd how my brain works and what im doing and saying or not doing. Im really really fucking tired.

Hey there, I totally get where you're coming from; sometimes it feels like our own minds are our worst enemies. You're definitely not alone in feeling this way—it's like the more you try to focus on the positive, those pesky little annoyances just rear their ugly heads and pile up on you, ya know? I've been there where everything seems overwhelming and it becomes hard to differentiate between what's real stress and what’s just your mind playing tricks. It's super important to recognize that acknowledging these feelings is already a big step forward because it means you're aware; 😉 Maybe finding a healthy outlet could help clear up some of these feelings, like talking to someone who can really listen or even just jotting them down privately. And hey, don't be too hard on yourself - we all have days where it feels like it's all falling apart but trying not to carry the weight of the world on your shoulders is key!
man, i totally feel what you're going through, the mind can be a real battlefield, can't it??? it's like you're standing in quicksand of your own making but, trust me, focusing on how good things are there to pull you out is crucial even if it feels impossible 😔 had times where i've felt completely lost in my own head too and strangely enough, taking small steps to shift focus really helped me, like meditating or just taking a walk to clear my mind. remember that those little bad things don't define your reality, even if they scream louder than all the positive stuff. you’ve already done a big thing by recognizing the pattern, and that’s something not everyone can do. keep fighting and give yourself some grace; it’s okay not to have all the answers right now — that’s just part of being human.
I totally understand your frustration, it's like being in a loop where everything seems to have the potential to spiral out of control; 😟 It's great that you're aware these thoughts are more about stress projection than reality. Maybe consider putting some boundaries around how often you dwell on them? Balancing self-awareness with positive action could help make those "little itty bitty" things seem less daunting and let the good moments shine through again; your mind can be a tricky place, but remember, you've got the power to take small actions every day that can shift your perspective.
you know blaming everything on yourself isn't helpful at all; why do you even overcomplicate stuff and then complain?
i've noticed that sometimes it helps to break things down instead of letting everything swirl around in your mind. ever tried just listing out what's bugging you and tackling those bit by bit? it might help bring some clarity and reduce the overwhelm. remember, it's not all on you—stress can skew our perceptions, making small things seem bigger than they are.
i hear you, and honestly, it's tough when your brain is running a constant negative loop. sometimes it feels like the more you try to calm the storm, the louder it gets 😩. i've dealt with similar feelings where everything just snowballs into this overwhelming mess that seems hard to untangle. but hey, maybe reframing those thoughts could help? like instead of seeing them as failures or faults on your part, consider them as areas for growth or change. you're not alone in feeling like you're drowning in negativity; a lot of us have been there. just remember, it's okay to take things one step at a time and be kind to yourself along the way.
Hey, it's wild how the mind can be its own worst enemy sometimes, huh?
