how to stop overexaggerating

I recently had a falling out with a friend that made me realize that I need to stop getting upset over the smallest of things. But one of my close friends as of recently did something so small but I can't get it out of my head โ€” I don't usually add music to our sessions when we work on our respective homework so I decided to add a couple last night. She skipped the only two songs I've ever added and it got me upset to the point where I had to leave the call early to take a walk.

I haven't said anything then and I don't think she realizes anything is wrong because there really shouldn't be and I'm blowing things out of proportion. How do I go about stopping this because I really don't want to lose another friend?

Honestly, you handled that very well. Going for a walk is a great way to deal with things.

Then only way you can try to deal with this is to replace behaviors with other behaviors. When you get annoyed with something like this, maybe try counting to 10 before reacting. It takes a while to learn, but it helps get your mind in a better place before reacting.

Always keep in mind that sometimes we tend to overthink and things aren't always as they seem. This is where communication comes in. Maybe instead of reacting you could have asked her why she skipped the songs then nicely tell her you added them to the queue because you wanted to hear them. She may not have realized you had added them.
