    “Wow, I’m so happy! I can’t believe I’m so happy.” Are simply affirmations. The human mind can start to believe what you constantly feed it. So basically you’re tricking your mind and it’s all a lie. Wow. Am I an over thinker? Sorry if I was rude or anything. Sorry.

    Oh! I was an overthinker ever since I was a kid. And the cause: my upbringing. You know that time when you are doing small mistakes and the reactions you got from your parents are terrible? That makes you an overthinker for everything, a perfectinist; which you still carries in your adulthood. Thankfully, the emergence of my anxiety disorder has been my life's turning point. I cannot say that I no longer overthink, but I can say that I can manage it. My enotions and my thoughts, I can effectively observe it and tweak it to become a useful one. I have also learned logical ways to upbring my children in the future so that they will not generate mental illnesses due to poor parenting. I thank being an overthinker, because if not for it, I will never be a better architect, and an achiever. Btw, yoga and meditation are liberating me when I am on the verge of overthinking.

    I constantly overthink in the negative, and adding that with severe social anxiety.. it's a nightmare when you just want to write a sentence (god forgive a paragraph). I stare at a sentence I wrote and reread it over and over again before submitting, asking myself if I chose the correct words to get my point across with regards to the context of whatever I'm writing about or whoever I'm replying to. Heck, when I'm with my friends and new people join in on the conversation at hand, I analyze the subjects being spoken about and start to overthink on how I should join in on the conversation; because at the back of my head there's this imaginary voice saying "you better say something before these people think you're a weirdo for not engaging in a conversation". That's where overthinking fries out my brain with generating all these possible conversation starters to the point where as if my brain reboots itself into safe mode. This is where overthinking about what to say and what to say next in a conversation takes a form similar to a flowchart. For example, "START with conversation starter > IF you can continue talking about this subject without awkward intervals CONTINUE > ELSE loop back to START and think of another conversation starter". It really is annoying. Sometimes I'd be sound asleep and my brain would just out of nowhere be like "WAKE UP! REMEMBER THAT TIME IN PRIMARY SCHOOL 16 YEARS AGO WHEN YOU LOOKED AT THAT KID IN A WEIRD WAY?! DO YOU THINK HE STILL REMEMBERS WHAT HAPPENED?! LET'S THINK ABOUT WHAT WE DID WRONG AND LOOK AT THE VARIOUS OTHER OPTIONS WE COULD HAVE USED INSTEAD AT 2AM WHEN YOU HAVE TO WAKE UP FOR WORK AT 5AM!"

    Holy what! This is my brain in words. I, too, have social anxiety. I literally feel like I'm always saying the wrong thing or I'm not quite moving properly. Whenever I talk to someone, I become super aware of everything my body is doing like, the words I'm saying, my hands, my posture, the way I breathe, am I smiling too much, eye contact, and my heartbeat. Its mostly happens with people I dont know well.

    I feel you. Social anxiety is the worst and when your overthinking kicks into overdrive it makes everything even worse than it already was. Sometimes I wish there were just an off switch to get rid of it all because I will literally analyse everything to the endth degree. I feel like some days I'll literally just try to nap because I actually can't get a hold of all my racing thoughts and it's exhausting because it just feels like they will never shut up.

    You can turn overthinking off. When I was younger I would get into overthinking loops often linked to things I was anxious about. I am quiet and introverted so I would roleplay the scenario in my head many times as to what I would say. When it came time to actually speak, I wouldn’t say a fifth of what I had thought up. Eventually I decided not to let myself do this role playing and restrict myself to just speaking to the other person. In connection with actually speaking, or writing, I took responsibility for what I said. If I spoke out of turn or got my facts incorrect I was willing to apologize or correct myself. Being intuitive and reflective doesn’t mean clear sight. There is a good reason understanding is referred to a foggy glass/mirror. I have found that many times, my reflections focus on verifying the interpretations of reality presented by my friends and wider culture. Internally, my reflections compare that to all data, anecdotes and experiences I have collected. When it is false I am happy to cry foul but like anyone who cherishes anything, I know that my reflection can ignore the very falsehood in lies and tales I have come to cherish. The insights one gets have a real very opportunity to be tainted in this way but because they do not come from unreliable culture or family so are trusted more and an intuitive like yourself can present them with great confidence. Intuit away... but please be careful with what you find. 😉

    Yes overthinking is my downfall, I can spend hours in bed not sleeping like i should be but having imaginary conversations or experiences in my head which area the worst possible outcomes of all the things i am worried about. I also replay past conversations and think about what i could say better. It get to the point where i realy need to crack out all my stress releving weapons just so i can relax. The other night I took bachs nighttime remedy, covered my teddy in lavender oil , played rain and gentle thunder ambient noise through my headphones and sat trying to regulate my breathing whilst repeating everything is fine in my head............Worked though so...yay me i guess......

I decided to get lavender oil, & created my own DIY spray for my pillows...... butttttttt the scent didn't last. I am so thankful that I finally bought a diffuser. The slight trickling noise, along with the all-night-long lavender scent truly, truly, TRULY helped.

    I struggle with overthinking on a daily basis, if I have a bad day at work I tend to talk bout it to my partner and constantly think of that situation which ultimately leads to me crying for a few hours. He gets stressed on how I am too dependant and unable to cope with stress which ultimately stresses me even more and overall makes me overthink about whether he'll eventually leave me because of my issues and my lack of control over my thoughts and emotions. Welcome to my brain. Now I'm out here trying to find books, videos, etc. Anything that will help me mentally and gain self love and self-control and overall wellbeing and happiness

(so you get the mental energy you need for your exams ) and also if you get frustrated breath slowly and say numbers out of order.. ( it has helped me before during an exam ).

    Overthinking might be a result of fear, or of insufficient action to give you the insights you need to know what path to choose. One might also be giving too much importance to things that aren't that important (resulting in more fear). In the modern world, we're much less interdependent than we were, so the old instincts for how much you need to care about what others think...

    Something I've been overthinking: The other day my friend was talking to someone, and since I haven't seen her in a while I went up behind her and scared her. She punched me, but she was kinda smiling, and it seemed playful. I pretended to be hurt, because we have funny bants like that, yknow? She continued talking to the boy, and after that I kinda felt bad. It came up later about her punching me with my other friend, and the girl said I interrupted her conversation. And after that I felt so guilty. We've had snow days, so I haven't seen her for like a week. I feel so bad and I want to apologize, because I would hate being interrupted during a great conversation. I never usually do things like that, and I'm not the person to do random things like that, but I just *had* to do it that time. It didn't seem to bother her much, but I don't want her to forever think I'm *that* person. And now that it's been a week it would probably seem weird and obsessive that I apologize now, because it wasn't like a catastrophic event or anything, it wasn't a huge deal. Ugh, I hate overthinking things.

    Thats a hard situation! Next time you see her maybe you could just say "Hey, I know it's been forever since I interrupted your conversation with so-and-so but I just felt like I never had a chance to say sorry about that." And once you've made that point just let it go and try to erase it from your memory!

    When I overthink, it's like my mind gets so loud so I talk to silence it. Sometimes I'd say random things and my dad thinks I'm crazy. One of the most painful thing he said to me is that there is something wrong with my behavior and he knows there's something wrong with me. He said that while he was and although he said sorry, I know that's what he feels about me.

    One of the strongest bases of my depression and anxiety is overthinking, it gets extremely hard when you realize you can't control it and it leads to so may unnecessary thoughts and actions, it really exhausting. Even though, for the past weeks I've been more conscious about it and even if it sounds ironic, I push myself into not think so much and just let things be. It's very relieving.

I'm still learning to harness my overthinking ability. Good news is that there are ways to positively manage it. It's part of embracing yourself and learning how to work with yourself than against yourself. Don't ignore the problem, find what works for you and educate yourself about it. Also reach out and ask for help :-)
