Over Stressed, Anxiety Ridden and Impossibly Difficult

You know, I never take the chance to stop and look at what's around me. I'm constantly in a rush or hurry, constantly making a mad dash for my door because once again, I woke up too late or didn't give myself enough time to get ready. I never just stop what I'm doing and, for lack of a better phrase, "smell the roses" as some would say. I've been taking notice of this as of late though, and I'm vowing to myself to change it. It starts now, there's no turning back at this point.


My confession today, I'm an over stressed, anxiety ridden and impossibly difficult teenager as of recently.


Now, when I say "impossibly difficult" I don't at all mean that I don't follow the Rules of Life (as I like to call 'em) and other common sense stuff like that. For me it means that I think too much, I over analyze almost everything I do and I don't think about the typical teenager worries. The latter might actually be good for me in the long run, but I feel a bit distant from other teens my age. I could elaborate on this, but I think that's for another blog.

So let's take a gander at the "overly stressed" part of my confession! In short, I just stress over the little things that I shouldn't be worrying about. And even though I tell myself that I'm not gonna get stressed, I do anyways. I think I possibly might be a wee bit of a worrier, which I don't always consider an amazing thing. I've found that sometimes in life, things just happen and you can't control them no matter how hard you try to. Even if you want to just control your emotions, your situation, your status; you can't because life throws those unexpected curve balls and twists at 'cha. Following up on that, I've found that you just gotta take things as they come but still try to be at least a possible half a step ahead. Does that make any sense? I think I'm just ranting and rabbling at the mo' so don't mind me!

Time for...wait for it...that "anxiety ridden" aspect of my confession! Okay so honestly, I'm not a complete anxiety ridden individual. I just get slightly worked up with non important things. Strangely though, it's not all non important things ya know? It's when the certain random things go slightly awry, that's when BAM! Mr. or Miss Anxiety shows up and takes over for a bit. It's pretty disconcerting if you ask me.

My solution to my confession, is to stop worrying over things that ought to not be worried about. To quit letting Mr. or Miss Anxiety take over and make me have a minisode. And finally, to extinct over stress and other random feelings of that sort.

Well, I believe I'm done now! I got a lot off my chest (not literally of course!), and I really think I made progress today. Which is completely exciting! Sorry for the long wait, hopefully I'll be writing on this more frequently then hardly never.

TTFN!
