The Great Awakening or Overthinking?

[Pilar Beckner]

I begin to question the narratives of every event that is happening right now and I tried to connect all the dots and go deeper down the rabbit hole. Is this the sign of awakening or overthinking? For the fact that it leads to stress and sleeplessness and sometimes depression. Any thoughts?

Take a break from the cannabis.

I don't take cannabis or some awakening drugs.

Care to elaborate on 'every event'?

 

[Pilar Beckner]

Yup, coz that's all I can do for now. Having read a lot and researched a lot of things changed my views. However, I stumbled upon this community-based study regarding mental health Prevalence of depression during the COVID-19 outbreak: A meta-analysis of community-based studies and I started to figure out the other way around.

If you ever find yourself in the Netherlands, magic truffles are game-changers.

Everything else you've said is a bit too vague to really opine on. I do have myself observed COVID preventive measures taking a toll on friends' mental health, especially those currently in the Netherlands, and it's a substantial downside to lockdowns and strict gathering prohibitions that I rarely see discussed (and one that should effectively serve as a counterpoint to overzealous measures). This doesn't seem like the original intent of the post, though.

Yes, It is indeed not my intent.

I don't understand what are you trying to say but the article is okay. I somehow like it.

I'm okay but I can't take away not to worry about this new covid variant trying to irritate me.

Yeah, this new covid variant is somewhat irritating but nothing beats the marketing strategy for Covid-19.

What you are doing is overthinking. Overthinking is also often associated with mental health issues like depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress, and borderline personality disorder. Lao Tzu once said: “Watch your thoughts, they become your words; watch your words, they become your actions; watch your actions, they become your habits; watch your habits, they become your character; watch your character, it becomes your destiny.” Take good care of yourself dude.
Edit: especially to your mental health.

Does words, I really like those words. Lao Tzu's words are so godly and It hits me so hard. Thanks for sharing these wonderful words with me, I really appreciate your kindness.
