Does anyone else ever feel like this

Fen

Hi guys, I just wanted to see if anyone ever gets the gets periods where they get mentally so overwhelmed and if so, what helps you feel better? 

I don’t feel sad or low in my mood, I just am finding I can become quite overwhelmed and nervous by my own thoughts and over think easier than usual. I also have less capacity to mask and less desire to socialise.  

I don’t deal well with changes and uncertainties and I’m having quite a few  in my life atm, so that could be playing a role. 

I find I feel so overwhelmed by everything, and even though I don’t feel sad necessarily, if I allow myself to cry for 5 minutes it’s like realise of the anxiety and I feel slightly better. Maybe that also helps as the cry represents me activity accepting how I feel instead of trying to bury it inside and ignoring how I feel, which is a habit I always used to do. 

I hope I made sense and haven’t just rambled! Can anyone else relate to this ? 

Hope everyone is having a great day Blush

  • yeah thinking too much is what im guilty of. and thinking of the same thing over and over again worded in different words. which is why i can write essays and essays of a problem over again worded differently each time whenever im writing a complaint to my boss lol my brain doesnt shut up, so i can write none stop. i looked it up one time and its called rumination, where you over think and keep cycling and thinking of the same thing over and over and thinking negative stuff and too much.

    crying comes harder and isnt a common occurrence but i did get pushed so far as to be in a crying state for a week none stop one time. but generally i like to feel better by doing kickboxing and stuff like that.

    Thanks for sharing your experience. I’m definitely guilty of rumination too! 

    Glad you find kickboxing helps you

    i think it helps because you are focused on that one thing. and it exhausts you so because it uses so much energy and gets you sweating and tired your full energy is focused on that one thing. so everything else is forgotten.
