I'm going to stop worrying.
Starting tomorrow, I am not going to allow myself to become paranoid, and I am going to start trusting my friends more. The next time I find myself starting to fly off the handle, I'm going to walk away from the computer and do something else, like draw or play a video game, until I've distracted myself from my paranoia.
I nearly screwed one of my friends over as a result, and later in the chat today, and I'm not going to let that happen again. I'm going to stop worrying over everything, because it's bad for everyone and I don't want to end up doing it again. It's only hurting me and I know now it might hurt others too.
I'm posting this here, publically, because I'm hoping that will motivate me to stick to it instead of saying "okay, I'll stop now" to myself or weakly over IM. I'm committing to this, and any support you guys can give me will only help.
Let's see if it works then...
