My struggle with overthinking
Anxiety Support / by Moshin
Last post

...See more I overthink everything. Even simple things, like walking, feel like a performance. I ask myself: Should I relax my shoulders? Should I push my chest out? Should I swing my arms slowly? It’s like my life has become an act. This all started back in school. I was bullied in many ways, and one moment stuck with me. A classmate once made fun of the way I walked. Since that day, I’ve been obsessed with perfecting my walking style. That was ten years ago, and I still haven’t let it go. Because of that bullying, I developed extreme anxiety. I live in constant fear of being judged or laughed at again. I never want that classmate situation to repeat. It impacts my daily life a lot. I avoid social situations because I’m afraid of messing up. I want to make friends or talk to someone I like, but I freeze. My brain never rests—it’s always overthinking. I get constant headaches, and I can’t clear my mind. Being in public is the hardest. I feel extreme anxiety, and even simple things become overwhelming. I end up feeling trapped inside my own thoughts. Even in conversations, I struggle. I can’t keep up with them for too long. I just want to finish quickly and move on, as if the longer I stay, the more chances I have to mess up. Since Covid, things have gotten worse. I don’t have friends anymore, and the only people I talk to are my family. But instead of supporting me, they judge me. I feel like I can’t live my life the way I want. What I really want is to feel free—to walk without thinking, to stop performing, and to just be myself.
