Why do small incidents hurt so much after going through emotional pain?

Need help from you all. So, a lot has been happening in my life lately. First, I was physically assaulted by 5 students in my college. Then I went through a breakup. For the past 3 months, I’ve been trying to heal from it — crying, overthinking, feeling sad almost every day.

And yesterday, one of my friends betrayed me. We were supposed to get a room together, but he told another friend to book the room with him instead, and I was left isolated. This hurt even more because I had already told my parents that I finally got a room, and then this happened.

Because of all this, I couldn’t sleep the whole night. I kept overthinking things like, “Maybe if I had paid the money first, the room would’ve been mine.” I felt terrible. Then I started looking at my ex’s photos, which made everything worse. I ended up silently crying and sobbing for around 15 minutes, and only after that, I was finally able to sleep after 4 AM.

I genuinely want to understand why I’m overthinking so much and why small things are affecting me this deeply now. Maybe all these incidents together have mentally exhausted me, but I really want to improve myself and become emotionally stronger again.

If anyone has gone through something similar or has any advice on how to stop overthinking, heal properly, and work on myself, please let me know. I really need some guidance right now.

Guys, is this normal? Like, when I was with my girlfriend (now ex), we used to do sexting, and after I was done with myself like masturbation and all I wouldn’t get the urge to talk more or even continue sexting. It would start to feel boring to me.

Same thing right now: I’m with a girl and we’ve kissed several times, but one day when I masturbated and then met her after one hour, I wasn’t getting any urge to kiss her or feeling any attraction towards her.

Is this normal, guys, or is there something wrong with me?

Also suggests what should I do so that my partner won't get sad or upset ??

Hey everyone, wishing you all the very best for your NEET exam. I know one exam is not enough to define your worth, but still, give it your best shot.

I’m a JEE aspirant, and even now, whenever I hear “JEE,” it still makes me feel a little sad because I wasn’t able to crack it. It has had a lasting effect on me. So please, don’t let NEET make you feel the same way.

I wanted to wish my ex all the best for the exam, but I couldn’t because I shouldn’t. So I’m here wishing all of you and her—a great exam ahead.

Pata hai aaj kya hua, So I think I lost all my aura at my brother’s wedding 💀

During one of the ceremonies, my mausi told me to go bring a yellow saree from her relatives’ house. The problem? That house was literally right next to the bride’s house.

I already felt a bit hesitant, but she kept insisting, so I went anyway. When I reached there, there was a whole crowd outside doing puja. I stood there for a moment thinking, “Should I go or not?”… but then I went in.

And guess what… I accidentally walked straight into the bride’s house

Her mom was there. I didn’t even realize at first. I was just standing there clueless. Then this one guy I kinda knew also came, but even he didn’t know what was going on, and he literally started asking them, “Do you have a yellow saree?” 😭😭

Meanwhile, I’m just awkwardly walking around, and people are staring like, “Why is the groom’s brother at the bride’s house?

Finally, I found the correct house… but there was no one there 💀 So I just quietly left, went back to my bike, and then circled around because I didn’t want to face anyone.

In the end, I went back home and lied that no one was there.

Never recovering from this.

Im currently in my first year of B.Tech in the CSE department, and my first year will end in 2 months. I was happy about moving into the second year, but there is a serious issue troubling me.

I have applied for an education loan through Vidya Lakshmi four times, but my application has been rejected each time. Initially, they said documents were missing. Then they asked for my first semester result—I scored 9.39. After submitting it, they rejected my loan again, saying my father’s KCC and financial profile are not strong enough.

My parents are illiterate and were not aware of things like CIBIL score, which has made the situation worse. Due to financial problems, we have already taken loans from private lenders at very high interest—we are paying ₹5,000 per month just as interest.

Now my family and I are stuck and don’t know what to do. If I don’t arrange money on time, I may have to discontinue my studies. I have tried every possible way, but everything feels hopeless right now.

Please guide me on what I should do.

I’m back home after leaving my college exam because my brother’s wedding is coming up. Lately, I’ve been missing my ex a lot. She has her NEET exam on May 3 and her birthday on May 30.

We were in a relationship for two years, but then she started losing feelings and said she didn’t want to be with me anymore. It’s been 93 days since the breakup, and neither of us has messaged the other.

The room I’ll be sleeping in is full of memories of her. It’s the same room where our relationship really started where I used to lock the door, have video calls with her late at night, chat for hours, and just talk about everything. Now everything there reminds me of her.
