Right now you are trapped in your thoughts at the moment, but because the thoughts are everything you have, you can't see the cage that's built around you. The cage is your world and you are stuck. Finding the door of the cage is all that you need to be doing now, and once you find it you will have the freedom from all the worry and the anxiety that you've been looking for.

I agree with you in the fact that I do feel stuck otherwise I wouldn't have looked outside of myself for answers.

You are selfish, care about only yourself, never listen to other people, and think way WAY too much.

I am not selfish at all, I donate to charity (most children's funds) and help friends and even people I don't know and expect nothing in return. I can make an example of this even today ( a person I just met the other day was telling me that he was in between jobs and needed money to fix his car, so I decided to let him do the brakes on my truck and paid him more than what I would have paid at an automotive shop just to help him out.) I view myself as a compassionate person.

To stop thinking, the only thing you can do is listen to the thinking. Who is thinking? And who is thinking the thinking? And who is thinking that? Keep trying to find the source of your thoughts, and every time you have a thought, find the source of it. Every time. If you practice you will find the source of your thoughts, and then, like a tap, you can turn them off. Then you can finally live in your life instead of in your head.
