Being Dramatic and Learning Whats Important

Somewhere I learned to be dramatic and I'm not sure how to handle it... I'm aware that I do it, but I'm not sure how to stop. I think my biggest fear is that life can actually be "ok" and not have any unmanageable problems. I'm afraid of letting a situation get too out of control, so I "control" it by worrying about it and making it into a bigger situation.

As I'm typing this, I'm aware that it totally doesn't make sense because I can't control other people, but there's a disconnect in my brain.

I'm afraid that I drive my friends crazy by doing this. I'm afraid of alienating them and the more I fear rejection, the more dramatic I become. Its an endless cycle...

I also worry about other people's lives and it frustrates me that I can't fix their problems. That I can't give them the piece of advice thats the solution to everything. I'm frustrated that I can't fix my own problems, but I think that I expect the world to be a certain way, like in the movies and I need to just accept that I can't fix it. That I just need to figure out my needs and convey those to the world so that people don't take advantage of me!!!!

I think that I just solved my own problem!!!

But I still don't know whats important to stress/worry about and whats not!
