5 Signs Of Being An Overthinker

Do you tend to overthink things?
Now you must be overthinking about the fact that you overthink. See, where it all comes from! Being an overthinker isn’t a really good thing to be. Overthinking makes you create scenarios that don’t even exist. They were actually growing inside your head all this time and now they make you believe in the worst scenarios that can happen to you.

5 signs of being an overthinker would be:

1.You think way more than others

You have basically turned it into a daily practice that you will overthink about things that aren’t even worth a thought. You will keep thinking for better outcomes and overthink each outcome without even implementing them.

2.You find it difficult to let things go

Like if you chose a green bag, you will think why not the red one? Then you will think of other colors too, maybe a combination of red and green and you might end up buying them both or none at all. In the case of job offers and life decisions, you won’t be able to eliminate other options and focus on one. Who knows if that was the right option and I just overlooked it?

3.You analyze people and situations

When you meet someone or talk to them, you keep analyzing their behavior and the things they do. You analyze and sometimes, overanalyze.

4.You want a reason for everything

You seek purpose for everything. They keep finding deeper meaning in things that aren’t even that deep. They even wonder about their existence or their lives. This also makes them ever curious and always ready to look into things from a deeper perspective.

5.You want to get everything right

Basically a perfectionist. You make sure to do everything properly. You feel like if you don’t do them perfectly, things might go wrong. You think of hundreds of possibilities and try to figure out the best solution. Well, that’s what overthinking does to you. You become your harshest critic.

So you know if you overthink or not, right? If you do, its really not a flaw but you can definitely try not to. Also, don’t think you are the only one out there so don’t think about this much.
