Does anyone else get paranoid reading symptoms of various ailments/disorders on WebMD? particularly psychological things
i've always been a pretty shy person. in high school i liked to stay in and read and play video games, and never had an interest in socializing so i never had a group of friends that i would see regularly. i'm in college now and i'm less shy, but not significantly. now i do like being with friends and have met some really amazing people, and i feel that friends are a really important part of my life, so college has definitely gotten me to think about my life more and has begun to change me
still, i feel "different". i sometimes wonder if people see me as being different and i just dont realize it unless i think about it. i think a lot, like all the time i'm overanalyzing things. it's like thoughts are running without me controlling them. sometimes i start daydreaming and realize i'm having a really strange dream-like vision, and when i "wake up" from it, i forget how i came about that strange thought or even the strange thought itself. it's like a dream, you don't really remember it sometimes, you just remember the "essence" of it -- it freaks me out because i'm supposedly completely conscious when it happens.
i don't use drugs heavily. i used to smoke weed regularly for like a year, now it's very irregularly unless i feel safe with the people i'm smoking with. apart from that, i've used adderall for studying (prescribed) and i started dropping E in January with an average of about a month in between each time.
anyway, this is a long post and i guess i'm just wondering if anyone else thinks too much about things like these.
