All lead to overthinking, self doubts and make it easy for people to gaslight you. So here’s I my take on each area: Social media is an illusion and full of liars. Only post what you want people to see and know about, ie. only post what is best. Drama: usually comes from outside yourself. Don’t try to fix other people’s problems. Not your monkeys, not your circus. Negative people want to bring you down with them. The moment you can identify that behavior, offer an opportunity for self improvement but if they won’t take the opportunity, settle boundaries and they drift away. Self defeating habits is the hardest to overcome and requires a lot of self reflection and some times professional counseling, even Tiger Woods has a golf swing coach. Just my 2 cents.
Hiting all the nails today are we. Hum , I'd say probably over thinking the intrusive thoughts sometimes have there ways 🤔. Though drama and self defeating habit are a close second.
My self-defeating habits are like a negative feedback loop. If I fail or make a mistake - true, or perceived by me or others - it gets stuck in my head and I fixate on trying to improve or amend this issue. When I'm unable to do enough, I start doubting myself. Wash, rinse, repeat, and you get a *very* exhausting cycle.
Yes I started getting emotionally drained in my childhood due to the constant fights between my parents. They would make me pick sides and threaten to leave our home. At first I would be stressed out emotionally and then I just realized their threats were empty and and upset because they would make fun of me for getting emotionally riled up. I get emotionally drained by my bad academic decisions that l make which inturn make me overwhelmed with the amount of work I have to make uo which makes me become a defeatist who ends up not doing the work because I am emotionally drained and the worst part is the wound is self inflicted Social media drama and lack of nuanced perspectives that lead to pointless generalizations about different groups and assumptions about people's actions. Then there is the gurus and other negative content creators trying to scam their often young and impresanable audience. All of which make me lose hope in humanity.
Drama.
