So one day, I finally thought of processing my thought and guest what? I ended up with a list, list of things I have dreamt of doing, which I love doing but never gave them a short just because my mind is so much consumed with the intrusive thought.

You are overreacting to your situation.

Over thinking doesn't give you solution to your problems.

Take each steps at a time as they come

Just be purposeful

Intrusive thoughts aren't the same as overthinking.

If the problem is that you abandon ideas because you overthink them then the solution is to just start.

How I avoid overthinking is that I remind myself that nothing is perfect and nothing can be perfect. I remind myself that the sooner I take action and see the errors the sooner I make corrections that will move what I have done towards perfection that I want.

People who overthink myself inclusive are perfectionist, so remind yourself that nothing is perfect in this world and just take action.

For those who think always and have BP, visit the hospital regularly and see those in pains and those with different problems, see that you are in a better position and thank God, it will help you with thinking and feeling depressed.

Thinking is a way of life: what should be asked is if you are thinking rightly not over-thinking.

Compartmentalize


Put things into categories of urgent interest and attention...deal with them one after the other...

Your job
Your business
Your relationship/marriage
Your spiritual life


Funny thing is you have to sit yourself down to make yourself understand this

It will stop soon. Just try to figure out your thoughts and their purpose. Don't react. Use reality to filter them all.

Do people still overthink these days?

With the advent of social media and it's varieties like Facebook, tiktok, X, Instagram, WhatsApp, and many more what would bother you as to make you overthink?

You'll always think. Handle your concerns one at a time.

Stop what you are thinking about else you will get high blood pressure.
That thing that makes you to always think just stop doing it now else you will land in hospital bed or the other side.
