I randomly slap my forehead and occasionally call myself an idiot when I think of a mistake I made or get overwhelmed. For example I’ll surf the web for an hour instead of working, then I’ll slap myself because I wasted all that time. I’m not actually that upset when I do it, it’s like a reflex that I’ve grown accustomed to. It’s audible but  it doesn’t hurt when I do this and I go about my day afterwards like a normal person.

I’m 29M, married and I consider myself generally happy and successful. I wouldn’t consider myself depressed. 

I guess I think of all the little things I could’ve done better. I think the older I get, the more I realize life is fleeting and every thing I do now will effect the rest of my life. 

It’s weird, I feel like it helps me cope with my bad thoughts, like I’m taking it out on another person or something! 

Is this something I should be worried about or do most people do this?
