Why You Overthink Everything

[@CalmlyCoping]

Which reason resonates most for why YOU overthink things?

[@slghtrtrn]

Confidence and Imposter syndrome for sure. I overthink in other ways, but this is the most problematic.

[@IshaActros]

Overthinking due to fear of failure, judgement. This makes me anxious and burnout eventually.

[@christinakellagher7594]

I overthink options. I weigh pros and cons. I ask people about their experiences. All while avoiding my intuition/inner voice. Fear of choosing the wrong thing because of a lack of knowledge forces me to overthink. If I follow my gut more, I don’t overthink. 😂

Thanks for sharing, Christina! It's such a common experience to have fear cloud your intuition, and having an awareness that it's even happening is a super important first step to getting out of that pattern.

This definitely resonated with me always extremely worried about how ppl perceive me and trying to get this done quickly which creates more anxiety than it needs to be

I ran across your channel just scrolling. Thank you. I am one of the world’s worst over thinkers.

I'm glad you found this helpful, you're definitely not alone!

[@chasing_mentalclarity]

90% of my overthinking is all about. What other people say about me behind my back. This makes me anxious and irritable😮

When your trying to listen to vid but your mind goes into overthink mode, so you have to put the video back again.. but then you do the same thing again...

With overthinking, how would you relate this to sports?

[@dsmith9103]

Especially a team sport, but where you are judged by your individual performance

[@CalmlyCoping]

@@dsmith9103 I have an episode planned on performance anxiety coming up in the near future that you might find helpful. What specifically are you overthinking when it comes to your performance?
