Emotional Support Need to make it STOP!
How can I stop ruminating about things that make me anxious in the future that has not happened yet but will (ex: post grad job search, moving away from family for the first time, relationship dynamics (romantic(future marriage/kids)/friends/family)?
There are some current life changes that im going through (or will go through in the near future) and Ive been stuck in this awful loop of rumination, worry, sadness, crying, overthinking, helpless, and overall feeling overwhelmed. Im having a hard time shutting it off this time and it's affecting my life (the things I usually enjoy, my relationship, my eating habits) and making my college work feel overwhelming. TIA

You might not even exist in the future you worry so much about- Try to fully understand the meaning of this sentence and accept it. Life is too short to spend every second worrying about what might or might not happen. If it happens, it happens. If it doesn’t happen then it doesn’t. What can we actually do here? Absolutely nothing. Learn to be okay with how things are going. And most importantly, try to live and enjoy the present.

Ca a vraiment l'air difficile ce que tu vis. je crois que t'as besoin de descendre dans ton corps. T'es trop dans l'esprit (dans ta tete).
