overthinking
i’ve had a migraine for a few days now. i get them often and they’re quite intense, so the doctor suggested me to just rest as much as i can when i get them. so naturally, i’ve had to cancel some plans these days because i can’t physically make it. the point is, i’m overthinking about this whole situation because: 1. i think my friends could be offended by me cancelling plans, maybe they think i don’t want to see them or i’m a boring/depressed person because i stayed home 2. i get intrusive thoughts about the migraine being an “excuse” to avoid social situations, or worse, that i am experiencing it as a manifestation of my desire to avoid. i struggle with avoidance but i don’t know if this time it’s the case considering my physical state. i don’t know if anyone has experienced a similar situation but yeah i could use a piece of advice
