Does anyone feel like this too?

Hello. I wanna know if someone feels this too:

In the morning I started feeling anxious thinking of news I read the day before of a man who fell into the river-sea from a yatch in the city where I live and he died drowned, found his body 5 hours after he fell off, I knew the man by sight but even tho he wasn't my friend at all I felt very concerned and on my mind was an image of the scene of him sinking in the river so after couple of hours I fell asleep again when I got up I kept feeling anxiety. I felt so so worried like if smth happened. I drank some medicinal tea which helps me with anxiety and took a shower then watching some tv helped me to forget the anxiety and I started feeling better

I talked to my sister cos I'm going to visit her in Montreal some time and I felt kind of good knowing that I'll breathe new fresh air and i always think it but when I go to bed and try to sleep I feel very bad thinking about the trip and then I don't like the idea of going there. So I wish i could stay in bed for the rest of my life otherwise I'd feel terrible bad of being far away from home and bed cos I feel this the only place I can hide and be myself without being judge.

When I think of future plans, men, trips, etc I feel terribly bad. Get anxious and same I pray to God that being in bed like tonight lasts forever.

So does anyone feel or have ever felt like that?

Indeed. Cocooning is a very natural emotion. Embrace and enjoy it.

You sound like you are a deep thinker, just like myself. What I do at night is read a good book to stop my mind from ruminating overthe days happenings personal or other unpleasant things. I am sure you would regret staying in bed rather than taking that trip to see your sister, just try to think about seeing her again. Have you tried mindfulness, it might help to calm your mind.

Well i used to read a lot but not anymore, it makes me sad. Everything I used to enjoy make me depressed cos it reminds me how happy I was in the past. But now I feel bad. Especially today I feel a loser and stupid. I wish I could be someone else
