cranakis@reddthat.comtoAsk Lemmy@lemmy.world•Why do I wake up in the middle night with absolute anxiety and dread over the most mundane inconsequential social interaction I had that day?

4 months agoI do this too and I think, for me, it’s two parts.
- Neurotic self analysis / self evaluation coupled with
- An actual interaction where I chose poorly that day.
I over evaluate myself generally, so when I do make any mistake socially, my mind will find out on later self analysis and bug me about it.
I find it annoying now and try to dismiss it and go back to sleep. Half the time the thing my mind is fixated on is baseless anyway.
I’m sure everything at SCOTUS is elderly proof.
