stop thinking so much and doing more. If you re busy taking action, you are devoting less time to endless worrying about your future actions.

How do people like you cope in the real world ?
With real problems ?

You talk about insecurities and self-doubt in relationships like you’re 45 and been through 3 marriages already !

Get some perspective !

Everybody has self-doubt ! If they didn’t we’d ALL have a deplorable excess of personality and be unbearable in another’s company !

You’re not supposed to have all the answers !
None of us do !

Where has all this angst come from ?

You’re young.
You’ll never be this free from ‘life’s experience’ again !
In time many things will colour your thinking and challenge your choices.
But you are allowed to attempt things and fail !
You are allowed to get disappointed and frustrated !
That’s what life largely is !

Roll the dice and take your chances !
Sure many will let you down. Leave you disappointed. Maybe even sad.
But that’s how you grow. By dealing with it and learning the lessons it teaches you.

Word to the wise ?
Don’t invest your hopes and dreams in random online ‘connections’.
People online are rarely who they appear to be in real life.

Real life means having to cope with those days when you don’t feel confident.
Lot easier to do that behind a keyboard than in the real world where somebody who actually really likes you is depending on you to come through for them.

I'm just going to say this, a quote I read recently... Of all the terrible things I ever imagined that could happen, none of them ever did.
Never cross your bridges before you have to ;)

@ozgirl512 thank you :) I should definitely keep that in mind❤️😌

@troubledvenus another of my favourite quotes ...

Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune.
But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings.
Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.
Beyond a wholesome discipline,
be gentle with yourself.
You are a child of the universe,
no less than the trees and the stars;
you have a right to be here.

If you can’t figure out how to stop over thinking things, you’re probably over thinking it 😉
troubledvenus · 22-25, F
😂 yes I’m definitely aware that I’m an over thinker. Unfortunately I’ve dealt with it my entire life. I was just looking for some coping methods and ways to tone it down :) @Zaphod42

@troubledvenus Honestly, the only thing that chills my brain out from overthinking everything is getting stoned. Weed mellows that out for a while and let’s me have some blissful mental silence. Sadly, that can only be done at home after everything else for the day has been accomplished.

No idea why you feel like it. but just enjoy the moments instead of thinking about all the negative possibilities. Why not try thinking..what if this goes right? Life is pretty much just about making memories. So relax a bit and enjoy it
