don't overthink things

Getting better! Had an email for a muse gig and i jumped at it and bought the tickets the next day!!
No thoughts at all! It feels good, the first thing i’ve managed to do without having serious doubts over it, don’t get me wrong i’m sure i’ll start thinking too much at some point but i feel strong enough to block the bad thoughts and to just focus on the good.
Maybe that’s how to overcome this, only over think good things?

nya! Doing it right now!! will i ever complete this goal???

had an invite to a party, i managed to think of every possibility that could happen and then found every excuse i could use to not go!
It’s only after that i realise what i’ve done. Maybe i should go and do something ‘out there’ and not think about it, just do it!
it’s so complicated.

Somethings are not as serious as i make them out to be. I need to learn to just let things go and also i need to learn to just do it instead of worrying about if i look stupid.

I really need to do this, everytime i make plans to do something fun, something i’ve never done before i start thinking. I’m ok for a few days but once its set in my head my mind runs wild thinking of what ifs etc. It stops me from doing things i love! i know it’s partly to do with my anxiety but i need to control it because its controlling me! Only problem is i have no idea how to not overthink…

It just spirals out of control, one thought leads to another (usually more negative) and I end up feeling really paranoid, scared or miserable. I’m determined to beat this one coz I think it gets in the way of me being happy more than anything else. I’m just not sure at the moment how to stop it, so I’m using distraction techniques.
