Do you ever get confused about normal stuff

Like I’m really struggling with how talking works today. Does your brain think then speak or not, and if it does how come you hear yourself saying things you didn’t mean to? Or wouldn’t have phrased that way.

i did this with breathing and massively overthought it. Had to make myself stop thinking about it because i was concentrating too hard.

Yes I think about stuff like this all the time. As soon as I become aware of something like breathing I’m constantly thinking of it, and how it all works. Then I have to refocus my mind to stop otherwise I spend the whole day thinking about breathing Blush

Breathing is weird isn’t it. The moment you clock you’re doing it, it’s a weird thing
