Do you ever wonder why you can’t stop overthinking? Your mind replays conversations and analyzes what someone really meant, hoping you’ll find an answer that finally lets you stop worrying. Overthinking can become a way of managing anxiety. It can feel like thinking through every possible outcome will protect you from rejection or disappointment. You can’t think your way into a life where nothing painful happens. But you can learn to trust yourself to handle the pain when it does. #overthinking #stopoverthinking #rumination #stopworrying #anxietyhelp
