Too Introspective?
I think me being in tune with my feelings is a good thing. I am proficient at expressing my wants and needs, my likes and dislikes... I know what it takes to make me happy, and what works against that.
But sometimes I wonder... and with all due respect to this forum which is an immense help to me and so many... if many of us don't overthink, overanalyze EVERYTHING...
From symptoms of an illness, to pregnancy scares, to disecting relationships down to the floorboards.
I often catch myself empathising with a poster so much that I thrust their problems into my world and wonder if their issue is also mine.... I begin to question hmm... do I behave that way? Does my boyfriend? How would I feel if this or that happened.
While I think its nothing but good to get our feelings out, to talk about them, to get advice and to give , its what we are all here for...
But do you ever feel like you're becoming neurotic? Toooooo in touch with your feelings (if there is such a thing?) to the point of becoming a walking bag of issues?
I think I need to find the balance. Learn to know what to worry about and what to shrug over and let go.
