I, too, internalize EVERYTHING! I wish I could find a way not to, but I've been that way my whole life. Everyone thinks I'm laid back, but inside I'm a ball of nerves. I think that's most of my problem along with a few incidents as a child that have (I believe) caused me to be nervous about going ANYWHERE, being around lots of people, birthdays, etc. But nobody realized how much these things bother me.
With me it's paranoia which is very real to me, but everyone else just laughs it off as if it's all in my head (which it probably is), but I can't stop thinking about the what ifs, and get stressed out about it, like what if I was accused of something I didn't do nor intend to do.
Come to think of it, my symptoms haven't appeared since Highschool, and it started up again after that event (combined with fatty and fried foods).
