This resonates with me a lot. I can be quite genial in social settings, but it's extremely taxing to my psyche because I unwillingly rehearse and predict all possible outcomes and how would I react. I catch myself having had a mental back-and-forth between myself and the person I have to meet, and if it's to be a particularly unpleasant occasion, I will have a heated argument all in my head that leaves me upset for hours. Yeah, that's not very healthy. |

The conversation is imaginary but the emotions are real.
I used to think my ability to deep dive situations was a superpower but it’s really a curse.
Thankfully, I’m learning to shed the worst of it.
Hope you can too.
