What's the mood tonight, brain?
"Hey remember every single time you did something socially awkward and made someone mad at you? Let's just dwell on that forever."
Cool

I'm just gonna disappear into a hole forever okay?

I'd really like my brain to stop so I can concentrate on literally anything but my own fuckups

I'm like "Listen, brain. It was a mistake. Everyone makes them. That doesn't make you a bad person and I'm sure they've forgotten about it by now." and my brain was like "That's an interesting theory but what if instead we just replayed the conversation again?"

Fuck brains TBQH

Everything about them is a Mistake

Ah ha. Ah yeah.

The brain really likes to make you remember things you regret even if they're small or inconsequential in the present. xD;

MBMBAM saves me by being too funny for the bad thoughts to get in

the way i deal with this is by talking to myself out loud but saying absolute nonsense in a constant stream so my brain can't actually get a foothold in on my focus

not a great strategy around other people but works like a charm home alone with my cats
