Has anyone else felt like they are just being weird with everything they do? I find myself over analyzing what I’m doing because I don’t want to be weird or I’m worried I’m losing my mind. If so, How do you cope?

Anxiety (Including GAD)
advertisement
I have anxiety, so I always feel the need to over-explain or justify myself to others. The best way I combat this is by telling myself, "Is this hurting anyone? Am I in the way? Am I bothering someone?". If I can't definitely say yes to any of these questions, I let it go. If I can say yes, I ask the people around me if I am doing anything, and if they say that I'm not, I don't worry about it.
I always have a reason or an excuse for my behavior in my head just in case anyone asks and I need to justify what I did or what I'm doing. most people call this "paranoia," I call it "making sure dad doesn't get mad if I can't explain whatever I'm doing but it takes me a minute to get words together so I'll do it ahead of time"
