Does anyone else feel like they’re constantly “reading the room” just to get through the day? I’m realizing how much energy it takes to predict everyone’s moods. How do you stop overanalyzing everything?

I stopped caring and let their problems be their problems. When I’m in a room with people like this, I just present the facts and if they get upset, I tell them: “Look, I'm just presenting the options that you have. What you choose to do with them is up to you, but here are the facts. And this is the state of the matter as it currently exists. “

Basically, don't let their problems become your problems.

Alright, thanks for the advice. This is a helpful approach
