I'm going to let you in on a little secret. That's most people. Many of them with worse problems than you. Yet the number of people who overthink things and make the problems feel worse for them than is necessary isn't that high, comparably. The point was never to just give up or to simply accept everything, the point of this message is that stressing yourself out is only doing more damage to you. If life itself is already fucking you over, shouldn't you cut yourself a break? You're the one person who fully understands your own pain after all. The average person had many problems that will be difficult or impossible for them to solve. And even if you are successful, one day you will die and it will all be meaningless to you. So why worry over everything? Even if it isn't much, why not focus on things that you can do and that you enjoy? A small improvement over time does add up. If you are still alive, you can still do something.

Or you know, give in to despair like me and see how well that goes for you. I'll tell you right now, when they say stress kills, they aren't fucking around buddy.

This may blow your mind.

But worrying too much is sometimes, ironically, the thing people cant control.
