I’m 25F. I love my life right now, but due to a lot of trauma and anxiety in my past I have a hard time just letting go and letting myself be happy. I’m casually seeing someone right now and instead of just having fun as much as I should be, I find myself taking it so damn seriously. (Can I see a future with him? Is x quirk too much for me? Is y innocuous situation a red flag?) he’s a great guy. And maybe he’s not my soulmate, but we’re having fun. And I want to just let it be fun! He is definitely not agonizing over the things I am!
That’s just an example, this happens with non-romantic things, with friendships, with things I do by myself. I live in my own head WAY too much, I always have, and I’d like to try to stop!
Did you read any self help, memoirs, etc that helped you let go and enjoy your life in the moment? Lay em on me.
