I found myself overthinking.
Last night I feel like I genuinely spiralled into my thoughts too deep, in a way that wasn’t good for me. Everything was going good, in fact I was quite happy and cheerful before I went to bed, but later on I ended up thinking heavily about the things that did not work out for me last year, and about the emotional baggage I have been carrying that I am slowly healing from. I genuinely just want to forget all the bad things and move on from everything that made me feel down or that still makes me feel miserable. I want to find my happiness again, and I was doing that, things were going good, but you know some bad moments make you feel like your progress has halted. I don’t want that. I don’t want to be held back from happiness anymore, and that’s why I am willing to not give up and still find a way. I hope I succeed.
It’s so easy to let old worries creep back in, even when things are going well. That contrast can really mess with your mind. It’s important to acknowledge those moments and find a way to ground yourself again. You’re absolutely not alone in this struggle.
