More sensitive than those around me

| I tend to overthink and be sensitive to what people say and do more than my friend group. I want to be more carefree but then it leads to me feeling like I'm being an annoyance to others. I need help. I am sad. :(


| >carefree attitude is annoying
How does that work?


| You can always be The Confused, act like you're genuinely confused when someone say or do something that bothers you. So they know what stuff bothers you without you sounding too obsessed, but at the same time interested enough to not seem carefree, if that makes sense.


| I have a similar thing. I think of things a person might think and base my actions on that illusion of "understanding how they probably see me / my actions". It's really hard to catch myself doing this because it's such an automatic process in my head. Sometimes I keep worrying about stuff I said in a conversation for days when in reality the person doesn't even remember it. Or I don't go for things because "I know the response will be negative" though I can't know it until I try.


| >>829666 Me not really filtering what I say to others makes me regret some of the things I say to them in retrospect

>>f1c6b8 I'll keep it in mind, thank you

>>829753 It's nice to know I'm not alone. It does feel like my brain just automatically starts to worry about the potential consequences of what I say or do, even if I know it's not a big deal.
