[MMHA] What still keeps you up at night?

The constant thought of me being a failure in life, being the distant son/ brother, the sense of being lost, forgotten, betrayed. All pretty bad things, but the loneliness hits the hardest. I want a relationship with someone, I do, I really do. But im scared, I wouldn't know what to do with myself if I ever get one. I'm lazy, selfish, and a hermit who doesn't like going out at all. I wouldn't want my lifestyle to ruin anything, and I hate myself for how I am. How can I love someone if I can't love myself? I think it's better for me to stay this way. Sure it sucks to be lonely, but there's so much peace to it. I have no worries about taking them to dinner, gifts on thier birthdays, arguments for the sake of arguments. I think of all this every night...

For a guy that doesn't sleep at night it's simply the thought of tomorrow waking up tomorrow what i will do

I had a pretty bad accident at work a few years back. Fell 2 stories off a roof, but luckily only had a hairline fracture in my pelvis, a gash on my chin, and some cracked teeth. I think for what occurred, I got the best possible outcome. I don’t think about it that much anymore, but there will be nights where I’m jolted awake because I’ve been ruminating on what could have been; I could have landed on my neck, etc.

Over thinking for sure. I think most people can relate to this. There is a constant hum that follow me where ever I go. The chaos of the day masks the droning. But at night the peace hides nothing. And I'm left with my own thoughts. It's why I turned to music, podcasts, and asmr. My earbuds are a plug for the swirling thoughts that threaten to drown me. So thanks again for the help falling asleep and keeping my anxious thoughts at bay Lav 🫶 and if u who are reading this also struggle with this you have my sympathies.

Constantly thinking and organizing what I have to do the next day

It's mostly the anxiety whispering in my ear every night before bed, which usually lasts well until midnight and only dies down when I end up far too mentally exhausted to think of anything else, which allows me to fall asleep shortly after accompanied an ASMR vid or two (a lot of which come from you and this channel! :>)

Uncertainty about the future, My current continuous mistakes I am making academicly due to my own negligence and the 3am worst situation simulations I keep having about romance. Lastly my current areas of weaknesses in life.

The trauma I experienced at my previous job, and how no one I know now can relate to it. Once I get back home from my current job and it’s just me in my bed, I inevitably think about how alone I feel.

The only thing keepin me up at night is the fact that it’s gotten really really hot outside really quickly and my room gets wicked hot, so I’m basically sweating all night

Lav, it's really neat that you're taking the time to recognize men's mental health. 💜 Not much keeps me up these days. My peace is most important and I stay low key while doing my best to avoid drama.
