ConfusedParticipantHey anita
I used to be like that before, many nights before going to sleep i would think of what i have and i would feel grateful and happy. Not anymore though 🙁
Today was a sad day full of ruminating but now i am calmer. How was yours?

anitaParticipantHey Confused:
I am glad to report that today was better and calmer than yesterday, thank you for asking. It’s a good practice to list things we are grateful for. Well, I am grateful for a calmer day. Anything at all Confused is grateful for 😊?
March 27, 2026 at 8:09 pm #456379
ConfusedParticipantGlad your day was better! 🙂
Haha, before all that, i wouldn’t even notice a “calm” day, my life is constantly on edge. Hmm, i’m grateful for a nice payday at work today and a calmer night 🙂March 27, 2026 at 8:19 pm #456380
anitaParticipantThank you, Confused 😊
A nice payday at work and a calmer night 🌙 is something to be 🙏 for.

anitaParticipantMakes me 😊 just to read from you, whether you’re grateful or not, whatever you feel.. it’s just good to read from you.
March 27, 2026 at 9:38 pm #456382
ConfusedParticipantYes i am trying to focus on the good things now, like bob ross was saying 🙂
Thank you anita, i enjoy talking to you too 🙂
I am gonna go to bed now though, let’s see what tomorrow brings!

anitaParticipantHey Confused:
Exactly 12 hours since you posted last. How are you?

ConfusedParticipantHey anita
I think pretty low mood today. We scheduled a movie night with the girl and my avoidance is on full-blast right now but i will still do it, like the other time with the video call.|
I can’t understand why my brain makes her specifically a target..
March 28, 2026 at 10:43 am #456388
anitaParticipantI think it’s admirable, Confused, that you’ll do the movie night even though you’re full-blast avoidant at the moment. Why your brain targets her for avoidance? Because.. she’s so loving and kind and that’s unfamiliar? (I just wrote whatever came to my mind)

RobertaParticipantDear Confused
Have you come across Eckart Tolle & Pain Body, he has talks on this subject on you tube. It may help you get a slightly different take on your situation

ConfusedParticipantHey Roberta, i will check it out tonight, thank you very much 🙂
Hey anita
We ended up watching a movie and in the first 30 minutes i would keep checking in my mind how much i like her, if im bored, etc and i would get uneasy, but i think i let it pass. We ended up video-calling for 7 hours straight. We laughed a lot, we also talked about some stuff and i told her everything about my black & white thinking, about the avoidance when i wanna text her, she said she feels the same.. think i self-sabotaged a little, tried to push her away and i would realize that i was doing it. She also mentioned something about guys from her job sending her follow requests on social and i got a dry mouth when i heard about it. I think it was jealousy reaction.
Damn, she is exactly the kind of girl i would fall for (and i did but where is it now 🙁 ), the humour, the jokes, her laugh, the playfulness of her character. I don’t realize how everything just fly over my head and i can’t feel elated 🙁
I would also be annoyed by the fact that i wasn’t feeling like the last time in the videocall, which i know is not possible but i still hold such high standards.March 29, 2026 at 6:39 pm #456410
anitaParticipantHey 👋 Confused:
Those “such high standards” in regard to how you “should” feel are unhealthy standards because feelings will not be told how they should-be.
You can have high standards in regard to a skill like using a particular machine.. but high standard in regard to feeling..?
It’s like telling a 🦁 it shouldn’t chase deer or telling deer it should start chasing rabbit for food.
You feel what you feel; you don’t feel what you.. don’t.
Please 🙏 relax the should-s.
Sounds like you like her very much 😊
🤍🍃 Anita

ConfusedParticipantYes unfortunately we cant tell ourselves how to feel 🙁
Haha i like your analogies. I have to drop the expectations yes, but its like u tasted something good and now u want it back so its difficult.
Do i? I cant trust myself anymore. I mean, spending 9 hours in call with her easily and laughing a lot, discussing things, the old me would see that as a really good sign, but now? Its just not “enough” for me, ugh 🙁
March 29, 2026 at 7:44 pm #456414
anitaParticipant“But it’s like u tasted something good and now you want it back”-
Like tasting a drug, experiencing a high, and then losing that high and wanting it back.
It just doesn’t work, chasing a “high”- that’s what’s behind millions of people taking drugs, trying to recapture a “high”.
You know how that chase ends up, right?
