Overthinking

For a normal person eating a sandwich in public should be fine. No big deal right. Well yes. But for some it's a diffrent story. That one bite puts more pressure on them than anything else in life. You look around hoping someone isn't judging you from the distance. The old man sitting next to you; maybe he thinks your wierd now. Who knows. If only you could read minds. Should I take another bite? What if they think I'm wierd? Is someone gonna stare? Are they starting? But it'll look wierd if I try to look around. what do I do? What Do I Do? WHAT DO I DO!?!?!?

It feels like every person is staring holes at you with every breath. You just wanna disappear, you wanna crawl into a deep whole where no one can find you.

Many people go through this on a daily basis. It's a feeling or action that we would like to get rid of, but it's not that easy. You can't get rid of something that's been with you your whole life. It's like tossing a boomerang with all your might hoping it doesn't come back just for it to hit you in the back of the head with the same force you threw it with. Why Won't It Go Away? Why? Why? why?

It's times like these where we would rather coop ourselves in a room where no one can find us. But in reality we can't. We just have to get up and live with it. We have to live with every stare that surrounds each step we take. And it's not easy. Sometimes this problem can lead us to a even bigger problem and it just keeps growing from there in a never ending path. This doesn't really have a perfect sound solution to solve said problem. Each person deals with it in their own way. So the only one that can fix this problem is you.

"Well, that's all from me."

"I don't know if I helped much, but this is the least I can do with my knowledge and abilities"

"No, it was great doc, many thanks"

"No need to thank me for doing my job"

"Right, well I'll be off now, great talking to you"

"Anytime"

....

"Nurse, please bring the next patient"

"Right"

"Did things go smoothly with patient 004"

"I hope so. Only time can tell"

"You say that with every patient"

"Well it's the truth. Maybe I helped changed a patients life for the better, maybe I help them get through whatever there going through, but we won't know until that time comes. For now all I can do is wait"

"Right, whatever you say"

"You are the doctor after all"

"Anyways where's the next patient"

"They should be here any second"

*knock* *knock*

"Oh great, you must be patient 005"

"Nice to meet you"

"So what seems to be the problem...?"
