I'm finding myself more and more consumed by negative shit throughout the day. It tends to just send me into a shitty mood until I can just get somewhere private and let the thoughts just fade away themselves. I'm not sure what causes it exactly. Sometimes it's just a random thought that spirals out of control, usually with no real "reason" to it. For example I could just start panicking about the reasons I could get fired.
Sometimes it's just because I'm jumping to conclusions and inception-ing my way through more layers of anxiety. Take the earlier example and add what if questions to it? What if I'm terrible at everything, what if I get hurt at the job, what if I get yelled at, what if I panic?
Most of the time I get sent into these negativity spirals because the thoughts just won't stop.
Those of you that know what I mean or experience the same things...what do you do to stop falling into this pattern of negativity?

I personally just choose not to focus on the negatives. Negativity leads to more negativity. Not something i need in my life as it'll just drag me down into a hole that's hard to get out of. Just stay positive. It'll always be better in the end.
