It Never Fails

So, today has been a fairly good day. I didn’t break down once today and only came close to shedding tears. For the most part I have been fairly upbeat about things today and for the first time in about three weeks I got excited about something but just as I was feeling a “positive mood” because of what excited me something happened that cast a dark shadow over my excitement and positive mood. It never fails😕😢

Boy, I can relate to that. It seems like I just can't catch a break. It's just one thing after another.

I noticed the biggest problem for ALL forum users here is self-analysis.

You all analyze yourselves constantly, all thoughts and decisions and events. It's imo futile and unproductive endeavor.

I also overtly analyzed myself, but then I stopped and my anxieties lost any effect.

I guess the best you can do - read classic Ancient Greece/Rome stoic philosophy - stop being influenced so easily by external events that cannot control you, and what you cannot control. What use is there to worry about things that will happen regardless of your worries?

I think you should be happy that you noticed that you were having a good day. It is important to recognize when you are feeling positive about yourself. Bravo!
