The most dangerous, oddly glorified, yet overlooked problem in the world:
Overthinking and underacting.
It's why you're stressed, depressed and your immune system is always in chaos.
Here's Eckhart Tolle 7-step protocol to escape the prison of overthinking: 🧵
@obviceo Love to know why you think the pet supplements didn’t generate the success of human supps. Pet supp brand owner here, fighting for survival. Thanks for the transparency.
beware of destination addiction. the idea that happiness is in the next place, the next job or even with the next partner. until you give up the idea that happiness is somewhere else, it will never be where you are.
Such a specific kind of isolation—the weight of being the one who always had to figure things out on her own, the one everyone looked to for strength, even when she felt like she had none left. As the oldest daughter, you learn early on that you’re the one expected to hold it together, to solve problems, to be the steady hand. And in that role, you often don’t feel like you have the space to ask for help or admit that you need saving too.
It’s not just physical isolation—it’s emotional. You become so used to being the one who saves others that you start to believe no one will come for you. It’s a heavy load, carrying the responsibility of not only your own well-being but often the well-being of everyone else around you. So you retreat, not out of choice, but because it feels like the only way to protect yourself from the exhaustion of always being the strong one.
Remember : you deserve to be saved too. You deserve support, love, and care. It’s not your job to carry the weight of the world alone. It’s okay to let others in, to ask for help, and to let someone else take the lead sometimes.
You’ve been strong for so long, but even the strongest need a soft place to land.
@hashjenni I can remember all the words to the Reading Rainbow theme song, navigate using a paper map, re-fold said map, understand the Dewey Decimal System, and I use Oxford commas.
@organicshorty I feel you on this being depressing. I love fall and cool weather, but hate rainy/gray days. Seasonal affective disorder is the worst. 😩
