I recently was ignoring, or trying to contain, anxiety about various triggers and stressors. Some trauma related some not. I thought I was doing ok until I got really picky about a french fries. It was silly and meaningless. Sometimes I will counter it by messing something up on purpose just to get my brain out of the spot. It's a long standing habitual maladaptive way of coping, sort of. I think it's my way of trying to find something I can control to reduce anxiety. Pretty much never works but still comes up from time to time. Anyone else struggle with this?
