i can relate

i think it happens in phases. perhaps if you feel that way R, then you should start moving forward. maybe now you are ready.

Is it over analyzing or living in fear? Both are, IMO, imprisonment of oneself. Not being able to move forward and becoming a dissector of every single emotion, intent, word.....and stay in status quo.

Mine was fear and once I finally combined a little analytical logic....I was done and ready to move forward. You will fall again but as you know, my friend, I have been going through a couple of let downs and yes...I bounce back but I could easily live trying instead of living.

I hope I made sense. I'm hanging by a thread. Find another pizza place my friend. It's time. Life is too short and the quality of life should be good for all.

Yep, I hear ya on that one. I do the same thing. It makes it hard to just sit back and enjoy.

I think analyzing is good, overanalyzing isn't. Pizza is cool too, but I'm a burger and fries kinda dude. Ever try Taco Pizza?

Before you order that pizza, you should think about where the grain was grown, where the cows were borne, raised, and ate the meal that became that cheese....

And of course, in honor of Soon, you should think of where any mushrooms were grown....

Oh, yes, felt better after I stoped.

I figure its my minds way of making up for the profound lack of pleasure, and libido.

Better than overreating on junkfood for instance.

I think some people spend more time over analyzing and obsessing about their misery than doing something pro active about it.

been there, done that - get the pizza instead. It's more nourishing.

stop shoulding yourself

you'll stop doing things when they no longer serve a purpose
or when youre sick of them
or theyre just no fun anymore

keep arguing with yourself about what you SHOULD be doing
and you'll just speed up the spinning

its all about homeostasis hunny

What if someone keeps doing things even though they serve no purpose, they are sick of them and they are no longer fun?

then theyre on the verge of some really great shift!
so they should prepare themselves for change
