Many times in life, when we are about to go to sleep, a thought or a problem comes up that prevents us from sleeping or makes us very stressed. These midnight thoughts are very bad because most of the thoughts that come are never good. They are always about a mistake or some old problem that we are facing while sleeping. Owls have a lot of tensions and responsibilities that they are unable to fulfill, so they feel a lot of regret. These are the same people who laugh and joke with everyone in the morning. But when night falls, they realize that in today's date there are many problems and there are no solutions to them. So, those who laugh in front of them should always be happy with their life.
And it feels the worst for those who have no friends or are in any relationships. They don't have anyone to share their work with. You can share it with your parents, but we can't do that much with them. Then, even if you say something, you'll get stressed out. Yes, we can share conversations with our siblings, but because our siblings are not in front of us, what comes next to me becomes a big problem because either the siblings can be older or younger.
I am able to tell this because I too have gone through such tough times. In my college life, I had a lot of time, and nothing was getting done properly. I was facing a lot of time problems. I had no friends in life. I had a best friend, but he was very far away. I used to live alone in the hostel, away from me and my parents. Back then, there used to be times when I used to cry and get very angry with myself because it can happen. I too make a lot of mistakes. But if things don't go in your favor all the time, then you too will spend a lot of time thinking, "Why is this not happening, and why is it happening only with me?" Then all these thoughts keep running in your mind.
I have seen many people who, when they go to sleep at night, are unable to sleep because so many thoughts are going on in their minds. So much is going on that they are unable to sleep. These people have responsibilities. You can imagine the medical expenses of your sister's wedding and how many problems your mother has. There is so much pressure on people. There is so much pressure, and a normal person does not tell anyone, but there is a lot of pressure on him. If you ask how he is, he will always say it did not happen, but the thoughts that he keeps inside himself and the thoughts that come to him at midnight are very bad, and he never forgets anyone. You can always see in them that yes, he is facing some problem.
Sometimes such a situation arises where your parents expect something from you, but you are not able to fulfill it, like getting good marks or getting a good salary; even then you get very broken, and at night when you are alone, you think, "My mom and dad spent so much money." They did so much on me, but I could not find a solution to their problem. I could not stand in their dreams; all these things also hit me a lot because we are surrounded by people and hence do not understand much about what happens during the day. But at night when you feel lonely, then you understand that yes, brother, it was my mistake here. It was the other person's mistake here. That is why whenever you are alone, only then do you remember everything.
I'd consider those people incredibly lucky. I think everyone has someone like that, or a relationship, who listens to their nightly conversations or whatever they're feeling at night, because I deserve someone like that. I don't actually have someone like that in my life, and most people don't have that either. It's the essence of life. I don't share it because many people think I'll be ridiculed if I share it, but you do share it with someone. It's not funny after my life, but it'll feel lighter, as I've tried many times. If you want to tell one person, even if they're your old friends, let them judge you, but seeing you will lighten your mind. These are the little things that give you the idea to avoid stress and depression.
I'll say it last. If you overthink things right at night, then stop it. Because oftentimes, when people overthink things, they become depressed or develop anxiety issues. If you're having this much of a problem, then you should change your location or move to a new place. Because often, even when you're in one place, you have these thoughts. Even following the same routing, you often get these thoughts. So, take a short trip. Sit with your friends. Don't go to the office for a couple of days. Take a vacation. You're working for yourself, right? If your work is okay, then who are you working for? Enjoy life as much as you can. And ignore all this. Because I was stuck in the middle, I used to get very angry. I hated everyone. But that's enough. Now I'm going to sleep, wondering who benefits from all this? So I changed my location again. Spent two to three months at home. Then went on a trip for a month. So these are the little things that will keep you away from all these things.
