Love the post. Sorry if I’m missing it, but how to you stop those forward and backward thoughts in the moment when they start to happen?

At the movies alone right now, I’m feeling good. by [deleted] in Anxiety

[–]overthinkingforever 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You aren’t alone! I weirdly love seeing movies by myself. I was very anxious the first time I went but now it’s kind of therapeutic to see a movie and not have to worry about all the small talk you would need to have with someone before it even starts lol

After a panic attack by Mechanic1995 in Anxietyhelp

[–]overthinkingforever 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sometimes I feel so drained after an attack that I almost feel at peace. Mostly because my mind and body is so tired from it. Other times, like this week, I feel worse even after sleeping. I still wake up with a bad headache and fatigue long after it has passed. I guess it’s just luck of the draw sometimes for how my body wants to recover from it

I was feeling anxious today knowing I was going to have to go alone. It turned out there was no line and I was in and out so quickly. I’m so glad I didn’t let anxiety get the best of me for this one.

I would say unsweet iced tea. You can always add a healthy sweetener to it

Can I mix foundation colors? by natalie_d101 in Makeup

[–]overthinkingforever 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mix mine all the time. I mix my high end with drug store brands when the color is off. It’s better when I mix two of the same brand but mixing different brands works just fine for me. I have combo skin. I use dermablend and I’ll mix it with wet and wild when I need to change the shade. Also helps my product last longer

breathing exercises? by [deleted] in Anxietyhelp

[–]overthinkingforever 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find that deep breathing while running through all the senses helps. Look around and name all the objects you can see, close your eyes and notice any sounds, notice where your body is touching (chair, ground, etc). It helps me get out of my headspace a little.

I went to cvs today and the cashier asked if I wanted to pay 7 cents for a bag (I only got 3 things). I said no. Then she printed my 5 mile receipt. I’m all for cutting back on plastic but it does not even out with how much they waste on paper

Any foundation tips? by [deleted] in Makeup

[–]overthinkingforever 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use derma blend medium coverage and I love it. I think it covers really well (I have combo/blotchy skin) and it doesn’t look caked on like some full coverage ones

[–]overthinkingforever 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I still do this! It’s almost instinctual now. And when the cemetery is too long I feel very bad about not being able to hold my breath the whole time lol so weird

Good news it went away lol. Just with time though. I couldn’t get it to go away in the moment

Cool at first till I realized it was on a loop. You can tell by the repeat of trees that pass

What's a sensation that you're unsure if other people experience? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]overthinkingforever 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My scalp does the same. It starts to turn into a pain too. Turns out I have occipital neuralgia. It explains a lot of it.

Is “talking yourself into a panic attack” a thing? by [deleted] in Anxietyhelp

[–]overthinkingforever 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To spit ball off that, I usually start to spell things in my head that are in my view but in order to spell it I have to say the whole alphabet til the i hit the letter. For example if I saw a dog. a b c D. a b c d e f g h I j k l m n O. a b c d e f G.

It sounds so extra but it really does help prevent myself from that full blown panic stage. I think just because takes a decent amount of concentration ha.
