Anyone else find that when you're alone at night, you start getting really down on yourself and second-guessing decisions? More specifically, I've sat down with an Army recruiter twice now and can't seem to keep a consistent mindset about this whole thing.
Throughout the day, I'm all-in and think this will be a good experience for me. But once the sun goes down, I'm left alone with my thoughts and start panicking. I sometimes have to get out of bed and watch TV for a bit just so I can calm down and go back to sleep.
How can time of day affect my mood so significantly? Are there any tricks to dealing with an over-active mind at night?

Because taking nonsense orders that are going to get you killed from a knuckle-dragging imbecile is a really bad idea. Go get a job. Get 2 if you have to. Work so hard you can't think anymore. If you still want to be an ISIS target in 6 months you can.

Try progressive muscle relaxation.
And avoid jobs that might get you killed. I would be stressed too if I had to go the army.
Anyone have advice that doesn't consist of
>army is stupid you gonna die
???
This doesn't only apply to my specific situation of joining the Army. Just making any big life decision... I'm always excited about going through with it during the day, but get super bummed out at night.
