Oh the number of times I’ve overthought things, what would s/he be thinking, what is his or her opinion about me. We sometimes care so much about these things that we forget to live our own lives.
On the other hand, we form opinions about people even without knowing them properly, everybody may have a reason to behave in the way they do, without knowing the backstory, or what they’re going through. You may not know what they’ve been through, what they’re going through; a person who’s laughing, and seems all happy maybe broken inside.
In some situations, we tend to spend too much time in giving thoughts to trivial things. The people we meet, make acquaintances with may not put as much thought as we put ourselves through just to be liked and appreciated. Even though I agree that we all love to be appreciated and constantly liked but this feeling should not take precedence to your mental health. As I mentioned in the previous post, there are some things one should let go which may take time but once you do, you live a better life.
There are some ways to stop overthinking, to do that first thing we need to do is work on our own self esteem, build that self-confidence we’re lacking, stop judging other people, once we do that life becomes easier to live and more fun to enjoy.
However, sometimes the overthinking kicks in the worst of the times. When you’re in a bad phase, we tend to think about certain stuff too much and thus spiraling down the rabbit hole which makes things worse. In such cases, the best thing a person can do let the people know what you think and clear stuff out. This may put a break on the overthinking train if not stop it.
Overthinking is something no one can help you with but yourself. Unless we take charge of our lives it won’t get better. most things are not that easy to do and achieve but my friends we all have it in us and we just need to find it.
And remember to stop worrying about what can go wrong, and get excited about what can go right, and life would be brighter again.
