Constantly overthinking and then having anxiety...

I have a really bad issue when it comes to have a conversation (talking, chatting..). I just can't not overthink everything. Use to plan my conversations even if I know that is a waste of time. Worrying about what could happen, have anxiety about it for days or weeks, not fully trusting and being afraid of myself, just causing pain for my health. I know that talking to someone isn't a crime but somehow it is in my mind.


Can I change this?

Oh I'm so sorry to hear that. You may have social anxiety, but I'm not sure. I don't know how to change that, but my prayers are with you. I feel so sad you and many other people have to go through daily struggles like this.

For my general anxious thoughts, deep breathing helps a lot. It needs time to get better at breathing, but once you know, it becomes a lot easier to manage anxious thoughts.

Thank you very much!❤️ Well this method is what I really tried too beside listening to music but sometimes it's hard to keep it that way. The thoughts around my head can cause me big problems, almost like panicking. If I try to see this thing as a person or a creature then I would say that it really likes to stick to me, looks kind and quiet but really loud next to you, just so negative. But again thank you, I hope you're doing fine but if you would like to talk about something, we can here.😊

Have a good day/night and take care!❤️

You're welcome :) Maybe seek support on social anxiety? Mindfulness, meditation and yoga may work too. What do you want to talk about?

Thank you, maybe maditation could be a good choise for me. I will see. What I meant is that if you want to talk about anything then you can with me. I'm just a bit lonely that's all.

But thank you again, hope I didn't waste your time.

Take care!❤️

Oh alright. We could exchange emails if you're interested. Would you like to share your email? I'll tell you in advance that I'll take break if it feels overwhelming for me.

Hello, I lost this post after reading your reply. Had to work hard to find it again haha.

Recently I feel overwhelmed even thinking about having communication with people online. I do want to have a pen pal, but maybe it's better if I don't right now, because I feel so overwhelmed. But I understand the lonely feeling, hope you keep seeking support. I too seek support in online communities.

Thank you very much also!❤️ Unfortunately, there are so many people who have some kind of disorder, issue, and it's just uncontrolable sometimes. And seeking for help is hard or even just telling some of it to your relatives. Well someday I will be able to.. But again, thank you for replying, hope you're doing fine.

Take care!😊
