Do you ever feel like what you are doing is so incredibly important that you just aren't doing it fast enough, or well enough or anything enough?
For example: I was playing a game on my phone where you have to identify company logos and one of them I have no idea so I googled it. Well this lead me to a wikipedia article about Abercrombie and fitch and their legal issues and I felt like reading this article was the single most important thing I could ever or would ever do. My body was reacting. My chest was getting tight and I was getting nervous and my nerves were firing at warp speed and it just felt so big.
It was a wikipedia article. About Abercrombie and fitch. Not that important to my life at all. I don't even own anything from that store. And yet here I am stressing out about this article and it's significance to the universe.
This happens fairly often and I have no idea why. I will be doing something not even the least bit significant in the long run and suddenly it's like my life depends on that one thing. Tetris. Reading a book. Tumblr. It's not like I'm finding a cure for any disease or cracking the secrets of the universe. It's tetris. Calm down. But I can't. I just get so wrapped up in the (perceived) significance of what I'm doing that I can't stop.
Does this happen to anyone else? I don't even know if I'm describing it properly. Sorry if it doesn't make sense!!
