You are connecting dots, but without any intelligence, simply creating random dots and joining them creating a complex spiral of thoughts leading to nowhere except chaos.

Focus on solving and moving to the next problem.

The solution was simple, if that person is close and this is the first time, ask them. If they are a repeated offender and not so close, simply ditch them, and disown them. ‘Not my friend anymore. I won't pay attention to him.’ That's about it, you are free to enjoy peace of mind and life.

What's the purpose?

‘What am I doing?’

Always realise the purpose of thinking and don't deviate from it.

Relive relevant moments.

Have you ever been forced into bestiality?

You start thinking about what each one present there would be thinking, about similar events that happened throughout life, you try to explore that person's reasons and thoughts behind that action and zero in on the worst possible reason, while that fool simply forgot that they didn't greet you already. You question your esteem and identity, ‘he did that because I earn less, I am not worthy of respect. When my day comes, he will get it back with interest.’

Have a core belief that, nothing is worth ruining even one precious moment of my life, nothing is the end of the world, and that peaceful existence is my ultimate goal like the entire nature.

if you thought about something in a way, and there was nothing to do; no results, it must not be repeated, no more thinking about it. Reread this.

Always wake up in the moment of overthinking and shouting stop in your mind.

The moment you deviate. Correct it.
