Same!

I can have an anxious thought(most of my thoughts are anxious) and then feel it straight in my tummy or chest.like I’m on constant high alert.

It’s horrible.

Oh dear. Horrible this anxiety.

Thinking however is purely an intervention of your brain trying to control your body when it’s more than capable of looking after it’s self.

Thinking about thinking will for sure cause anxiety but you need to realise that you constantly think and most of the time aren’t even aware of it.

Your brain idles perfectly fine on its own and overthinking about thinking is just an intervention.

I get that this reply probably won’t help but hey ho. It will stop you from thinking about thinking for a while whilst reading it. 😃😃

thinking about something i’m trying to find the words to explain, trying to think straight, thinking of an activity or event coming up (so i guess thinking in general) sets off my anxiety response as well.

Yes. I need to rewrite or rewire my brain
