Why do I care so much about what other people do?

[surlygrrrly]

I don’t know, but it is a fact-I cannot stop thinking about what other people are doing and/or have done and feeling annoyed by it. I get into these funks where I focus incessantly on people from my past

You're not psycho, you're just hurt, maybe touched by their psychosis. Seeing others being inconsiderate probably reminds you of then. I think most people are generally neutral towards others, not evil, just more focused on their own concerns. Rude acts are the exceptions to the rule, but they stand out because we notice them as being unexpected. We may pass a hundred cars, but see five or ten with their brights on, and feel like everyone is being rude. And this will rub us the wrong way, especially if we are still raw from past hurts. Shamanic and psychoanalysis perspectives would suggest healing focused on the past hurt
