I am feeling very anxious and scared beacuse now I am open to talk about my thinking to people. This is hurting them. We are about to fight only on social media. This is making me to do overthinking. However. I felt relax after opening myself to them but that irrational thinking about "what they will think about me" making me feel more scared. I always try to avoid fight but when this doesn't happen I feel more anxious than before.

@Ruhi2222 Very understandable. The fear of "what they will think about me" can create anxiety in us. Perhaps the question can be replaced with "what kind can I do for them." When the focus shifts from ourselves to our-kindness-for-them, this helps ease the anxiety.
