All your points are based on anecdotal evidence and therefor compromised by your internal bias. There is nothing to argue against, other than pointing out that your conclusions are subjective.

You should probably see a therapist.

Mostly I think some bad stuff is actually nothing to worry about, or it’s gonna be 10 times worse and happen sooner than is estimated. I’m about 50/50 on both counts…but yes, when you’re able see the big picture, especially when you get a little older and have seen some shit, what’s going on today (and what could actually result) is some dark, scary shit…

I think you’re mistaking being driven to perfectionism and doing things in a meticulous manner by anxiety with overthinking because of anxiety. If you’re burdened by perfectionism you usually find a solution in a well organized way.

Because when you truly overthinking something you don’t get a solution and just end up confusing yourself with self contradictions worrying about the outcome, you don’t really get a solution when you overthinking things.

This is coming from personal experience.

I prefer weed too. Alcohol is less of a commitment and easier to consume more frequently. It also has the tendency to suppress negative feelings as opposed to “helping” with them hence why it’s probably so popular.

Negative, you said that life is harder. My point is that you are volunteering for aspects that are making your life harder but are not mandatory. If you never simulated suffering you won't get it but be assured you have a very easy life.

They were too busy to be bothered with things they didn't have time for... emotional dynamics was created to give life substance now that we have the luxury of free time to notice. You may think you're bright, but wisdom seems to still b-right.
