The story

Sometimes i just wonder, like, how do people manage to not care about every little thing like I do? It's as if i'm constantly on the edge, worried about things that most folks seem to shrug off without a second thought. Like yesterday, my friend was talking about some minor issue at their job and it really hit me how chill they were! Meanwhile, i'd be stressing over it for days. It seems so unfair sometimes; why does everything have to weigh so heavy on me? There's moments when I wish I could just flip a switch in my brain and tune all this worrying noise out, you know? But it just doesn't work like that...

And it's exhausting! The emotional toll these thoughts take is unbearable at times. Every decision feels monumental and the spiraling thoughts give me no peace. In casual conversations, social settings or even when i'm by myself... it's there, gnawing away quietly in the background. Maybe it's a bit dramatic to say but it's like living with an internal storm that's never entirely calm. And don't even get me started on overthinking!!!! It's like, someone asks me where i wanna eat and suddenly I'm considering every single option worldwide as if it's life or death...
