Does anyone notice that when you have anxiety, depression or other mental health issues they stress or obsess over something excessively that has nothing to do with their underlying problem? For example, you may be insecure about your academic performance so when someone points out a minor mistake you make, like a small grammar mistake, then you take it as personal attack and feel very insulted and discouraged as if they are trying to hurt you on purpose. Why does your mind get diverted and what do you refer to this as?
