I remember a time when my mind felt like a chaotic city at rush hour, even in the dead of night. Every decision, every conversation, every tiny interaction would replay on an endless loop, analyzed from every angle, picking apart what I should have said or done. "Did I sound stupid?" "What if that person meant something else?" "I should have worked more today."
