Self-awareness and reflection are both a blessing and a curse - take it from a classic overthinker who analyzes everything. It's easy to get caught up in spirals when considering cognition and what's "crazy". I think in the end we have to define things for ourselves, and then consider the consequences for other people, specifically for other people in our lives. If our reactions are creating discomfort not only in ourselves, but those who care for us, then perhaps we should seek our some help and a different perspective on the situation. If, instead, it's just the shadow of sneaky self-doubt hovering at the edges, the comfort of conformity denied, then maybe we just need to develop a bit of confidence and carry on.
But of course, I'm crazy, so what would I know? ;)
