Hangxiety – Accidentally added my ex to a group call while drunk and now I’m spiralling – am I overthinking this
I’m having really bad anxiety right now and I need outside opinions because I can’t tell if I’m being irrational.
Last night I went out drinking, but everything was actually fine. I was having a good time, I was getting home safely by cab, and I felt completely okay. I wasn’t thinking about my ex at all (we haven’t spoken in years and I genuinely have no feelings there).
Then randomly I noticed a group chat/call on my phone that included my ex, some friends, and my brother. Somehow I had accidentally added him to the group and called everyone. He didn’t pick up, but I immediately panicked and blocked him.
Now I’m spiralling because I’m scared he might think I intentionally added him or called because I wanted attention, wanted to talk, or wanted to show him I have people in my life. That is genuinely the opposite of how I feel, I don’t think about him and I don’t want anything to do with him.
I also feel embarrassed and worried my friends might think I can’t handle alcohol, even though I feel like this could have happened sober too because it was just an accident.
I know logically it sounds small, but my anxiety is making it feel huge. Am I overthinking this? If you were my ex and randomly got added to a group call that you didn’t answer, what would you actually think?
I’m so anxious, still haven’t slept
