There are days when I think, "Okay, I have nothing to worry about - I'm good." but that's only in the summer when I have no assignments to do or something.  For example, here's how my mind works: I was worried about my college textbooks, and how my sociology book wasn't going to be here by the first day of school, so that meant obviously that I was going to get singled out on the first day, and then I'm not going to make a good impression. Then I realised that if I for some reason we had to read the text on the first day, then I could just miss that 'cause I know my book is going to be here on Tuesday, and then I don't have that class Wednesday, and I can still do the work if we have something out of the book. But then I was worried about how was I gonna get to the post office in time to get the book 'cause it's not gonna fit in the mailbox, so they're gonna leave a card, and the post office closes at 4, and if they leave my house at 2:30 from leaving the card, then when I make it to the post office, my package isn't gonna be there, so then I'm gonna have to go another day without work, missing assignments or whatever.  I don't know if this is gonna happen for certain, but I'm so afraid that it's going to, and I'm worried. Then my computer was acting strange, and it's completely gone, and I was only worried about my printer 'cause I'm gonna have to print off future assignments like the essay I have to turn in on Wednesday, so then I moved my printer into my room, but it's connect through my laptop through USB, so it's stretching across my room, and I have to move shit to place my printer where it is, so now my room is so cluttered, and yeah. And so I'm going to be worried about the book thing until class starts on Tuesday, and then I'm just gonna see what happens, so yeah. I can't go on thinking like that, I am on edge right now. I had to type some shit up for my mom, and I went through all this crap with the printer and stuff, and the world was just gonna fucking end if I didn't get it fixed, and all she was worried about was the shit I had to type up for her.  And then I printed it, and she made fucking corrections that I have to go back and add again, and I am on the fucking edge, and I am soooooooooo fucking stressed out over little shit, but little shit adds up and I think I'm having a breakdown. If you read all of that, please, I owe you a lot

While this can come in handy and even give you an advantage over others, you can't get caught up on all the little things. Take deep breaths and try to take everything in stride. I agree.

I've always thought this way...forever...and I have a killer headache now......but I'll be okay Awwwh!!! You'll be fine though you have a strong head on your shoulders! No worries, girl! iBritt Posted at 7:07 pm on Aug. 28, 2008 Quote: from HatesYou at 10:03 pm on Aug. 28, 2008 Oh my god, Britt. I'm sorry but i had to smile at this nonsense! I understand though, it can be hard to worry about all of this stuff and it eventually accumulates and adds LOADS of stress to your entire situation. Trust me, i know i know. I tend to do the same thing only i rarely break down and release it. Which is worse i suppose and im glad you've come here to express your discomfort rather than doing something worse! Pat on the back for you, love! BUT, i advise that you CALM DOWN. I'm sure your textbook situation will turn out fine and im sure you'll be done typing your mom's paper in no time. I'd tell you not to worry, but i doubt that would work since you have so much stress on you right now! The printer, the mom, the book, AHHHH. Don't worry though, you're a gee you will make it through this. BEST OF LUCK! Thanks, thanks.
