Hi, this could be a strange one. So bear with me.

I have this psychological issue that wears me down and overwhelms me.

I read a book about logical thinking a few years back that really helped me see things from another perspective, and not base decisions on emotions.

But what upsets me is other things people say. For example, being around other people who are closed minded. I worked in a factory not long ago and the amount of drama that went on was incredible. People accusing others of saying, or doing something on purpose to annoy said person when in fact they don't see it from the other persons perspective, they just assume they're doing it to annoy them. I can be quick to point this out to people, but even that could annoy them that I said that.

I always see 2 sides to every single story. Seeing things in the media and newspapers really, really ******* frustrate me because of how biased they are. I am an avid football (or soccer) fan but I know loads of people who genuinely think they know better than the manager themselves, accusing the manager of picking the wrong team when they lose. Well, in reality, the manager is a professional and has an army of other professional personnel working under him, so I think that he would know better than the people I know personally. I know opinion and freedom of speech is a good thing to have, but narrow mindedness really gets to me as I always look both ways and think heavily and access all areas before I come to a conclusion. I may sound like I'm on a high horse here but a lot of people I know are quite rash minded.

I wish I could drop this kind of thinking and realise that I can't change other people and get on with things myself but it's so incredibly tiring because my mind is constantly running of things back and forth of both arguments and just the ******** of the media/facebook/twitter.

I know the best thing to do would just to be shut of all those things, but it's really impossible these days with most people talking about it.
