My mind is never relaxed

How can i relax my mind? I keep obsessing over thought slike a stuck record, and it's so bad that i give myself headaches. I even have to stop mid tasks because my thoughts are so overwhelming.

Right now i am obsessing over a girl i went to see a week ago. I can't stop thinking about things she said and when she gave me a hug.

I'm always thinking about something, my mind is constantly racing. I only don't like it when I sit there and over think things like phone calls I have to make, I play out every possible conversation and outcome in my mind before I call or if I have done or said something stupid in front of someone I'll constantly think about it for a long time afterward. But usually it's just stuff I like that I think about. I'm the king of daydreamers. I used to get in trouble in school for spacing out all the time and not having a clue what was going on.
I don't think it's possible to stop it, I don't want to, except the stupid over thinking and worrying about social situations part.

I have the same problem, especially with dialogue. I will replay conversations in my head over and over again. I get upset, because I think that I should have responded differently, etc.
 
Stop the fucking expectations bro. Don't expect much right now cause your anxiety is too fucking high and you can't deal with it. Just accept that you might not get with this chick. ACCEPT yourself for right now and continue to build a better you... piece by piece... slowly but surely..

Thanks striker - guna give it a try.

Do you notice a difference if you miss a morning of doing it - do you get racing throughts throughout the day?
