So then what happens is you come over as argumentative, when in fact it's just you can emotionally detach, and see those shades of grey. But I digress :-)
I'm the same, I over analyse and over think everything which usually takes away my happiness.

For example, I recently had a check up at the Doctors and I was asked to pee in a cup. I asked the nurse if this was for a drug test, to which she replied, no it was to test for proteins.

A few hours later I thought about that conversation and I was shocked that I asked that, I think I basically gave her the impression that I was worried about drugs etc. And then I worry about how she looked at me, does she now think I take drugs, is she guessing what drugs I might have taken etc.

Thinking about it now, it would have been much better to ask, "What does the urine test, test?"
