OVERTHINKING

It feels like I’m stuck between the walls of uncertainty and overwhelming emotions. What is going on? Is there an escape to it? With every passing second, it feels like the weight is crushing me and the walls are coming closer and closer. It seems that time has taken a pause, yet my heart beats like it’s trying to run away. I feel like I’m walking in a lonesome desert with no sign of aid or life. My mind is in distress and I can’t seem to take control of it. My chest feels heavy and it feels like I can’t breathe. It feels as if reality is slipping away and I’m stuck in this time space alone with my thoughts. Thoughts run around in a frenzy. But all I want is to escape this feeling. I want it to end. I want to see the light shining at the other end of this long tiresome walk.

I was ridiculously overthinking about my life while scrolling on social media and I knew I had to stop. So I decided to write about what I was feeling to kind of calm myself down and anchor myself to reality. Writing helps me a lot whenever I start overthinking or am overwhelmed with emotions.
