It’s the thing that you do right before an important meeting or after a first date. It’s also what you do in the shower. And it’s what’s stopping you from getting a good night’s sleep. That’s right, it’s overthinking! (Actually, should we write it as Overthinking? Or OVERTHINKING? Because it’s a really big problem, affecting not only yours truly, but millions of people across the globe. Oh, God, it’s going to be our downfall, isn’t it?! [Overthinks about overthinking.])

People on the internet are sharing witty but truthful posts related to overthinking and we’ve collected some of the very best. So scroll down to give your grey matter a bit of exercise and upvote the pics that you can relate to. We’d also love to hear all about your experiences with overthinking and how you keep it under control, so drop us a line or two in the comments below. Bored Panda reached out to Suzanne Degges-White, professor and chair in the Department of Counseling and Higher Education at Northern Illinois University, to talk about overthinking.

    I once quit a job as a designer when a business manager insisted on peeking at my work over my shoulder (literally, I could hear her breathing) every day, for 15 minutes straight, while I was working - in spite of the fact that I told her several times it was making me uncomfortable. She said she just wanted to "check and make sure my creative process was in-line with the concept of the campaign". Way to kill the creative process.

    This is why I had to take my driving test 6 times... every time the examiner was there I just blacked out and couldn't do it anymore... Eventually even had to take calming medication to get it.

    I made a couple of mistakes at work then my manager made me run everything past him before I did anything. He then got me to share my screen so he could watch what I was doing (he worked in a different office) . I then started making more mistakes and second guessing what I was doing even if it was tasks I did successfully many times. In the end I had to leave because it got too stressful.

    When my husband and I were still together I would let him drive simply because I was so uncomfortable having him watch me drive. I'm a good driver by myself and even with people other than him in the car. Looking back on it, I think that was probably a sign. But yeah, I totally get how having an audience can get you stuck in your own head.

    According to professor Degges-White, "Most humans do tend to ruminate on the negative things in life. In fact, one research study indicated that we’d need to hear '5 good things' about ourselves to undo the emotional hold from a single 'negative thing' that happened.

    "It’s called the negative bias effect," she added.

    ADVERTISEMENT

    "Part of this comes from anxiety related to avoiding making the same mistake in the future, but the more we concentrate on the past error, the more ‘familiar' the error becomes and the more likely we might be to repeat it. Our brain goes where we train it to go."

    I'm convinced that this happens to everyone all the time. But try to think of it this way: How often do you think about an awkward thing a friend said to you 3 years ago? Seriously, think of a close friend or relative, then in 5 seconds, try to remember something awkward they said... Chances are, you won't remember anything, cause you already forgot. Which means there's every chance that people also already forgot whatever awkward thing you said, so you can relax. And if you do remember something, it just shows that everyone is awkward sometimes, it's not just you, so again, you can relax.

    Bored Panda wanted to know if overthinking things can lead to passiveness and inactivity, as well as if there's anything that we can do to stop it. Degges-White explained that "if you are too wrapped up in overthinking a situation you may absolutely miss an opportunity."

    "When we devote all of our mental energy to going through every possible outcome of a decision, there’s a chance that we’re going to talk ourselves out of doing anything, due to the almost magnetic attraction fearful outcomes have with our brains."

    "Some people are absolutely unable to make a decision, though, because they know—at some level, if not consciously—that by making a decision they have eliminated all other possible pathways. However, they might fail to realize that by _not_ making a decision, they have actually made a decision—and shut down all potential possible outcomes," the professor continued.

    "To reduce overthinking, we need to train ourselves to trust our first impressions and instincts—and commit to a decision," professor Degges-White told us. "We need to recognize that the longer we ponder, the more confused we are likely to get. Thus, we should practice making the decision that feels right and learning from the new behavior. Creating new patterns in who we approach life isn’t always easy, but we can train ourselves to do things differently with practice."

    Finally, Bored Panda wanted to find out if the younger generations tend to overthink more than people in the past. The professor said that "we have a lot more time to think than other generations—when people were super involved in the physical acts required in 'making a living'—when this meant rising early, physical labor all day, and no time for luxuries such as 'creative thought,' 'rumination,' or video game playing or mindless television watching. Life didn’t give space for a lot of overthinking—life was uncertain and you had to act quickly and instinctively, in many cases."

    ADVERTISEMENT

    "Overthinking is probably part product of increased leisure time, advances in cognitive complexity, and the ridiculous array of choices that life now presents us. When you had to worry about protecting crops, livestock, feeding a family, and making do with what you had, you don’t have the time worry about the trivial things that modern man has the luxury of over."

    I walk into the gym sometimes and, if I can't see my trainer right away, I have to do a mental check - is this the right day, is this the right time.

    Now that we’re all overthinking if we tend to overthink in our daily lives, it’s time to get our hands dirty and figure out what causes it, why it’s not the most helpful of things to do, and what we can do about it.

    Licensed psychologist Dr. Jeffrey Huttman told My Domaine that overthinking means “constantly analyzing and anguishing over one’s thoughts” can trap us in a loop of “mentally rehearsing” our past or present decisions and actions. Huttman explained that overthinking can be caused by self-doubt, self-esteem issues, concern, traumatic experiences, or anxiety. Overthinking wastes our time, is unhealthy, and leads to analysis paralysis.

    According to the psychologist, there are a few things that we can all do in our day-to-day lives to reduce anxiety and turn overthinking into regular plain old thinking. Huttman suggests practicing mindfulness by meditating. Those of you who are skeptical of mediation should know that it increases attention and reduces depressive symptoms. So it’s always worth giving a try and seeing for yourselves.

    However, there are plenty of other ways you can reduce anxiety. Regular exercise, yoga, tai-chi, even breathing exercises can have a massive impact on your mental health and wellbeing. And because we’re all different, something that works for you might not be the best fit for someone else. That’s why it’s so important to try a variety of activities and see which ones give the best results. Just try not to overthink which course of action is the most efficient. Just do it.

    Please, give me a moment to get organized. I am more likely to lose something when rushed. Then I will return later to try to retrieve the item I lost. Taking more of your time than it you simply paused. Also, if I am bagging my own groceries because there isn't anyone there to do it for me, either help me finish it wait until I am done. Sending the next person's groceries down the belt so they end up mixing with mine, never ends well. Trust me.

    I don't do it as much as I used to. I am taking an anxiety medicine called Lexapro and it really works it takes six weeks and it changed me as far as worrying and constant thinking every moment of my life. It's really not funny what these people do though. It takes a lot of energy and it can wear you out. I still overthink though. We have to try to remember that we are not perfect.

Or, I'm guessing we send out physical signals indicating which side we are going to pick? Sorry, I deleted previous comments because I did not write this well.

    I've had 3 eye surgeries. One eye is farsighted. The other is nearsighted. When I'm tired or my eyes are strained, they do NOT work well together. I've had problems with eye contact since I was aware I had eyes. It is, hands down, the thing I am most self conscious about in a long list of things I am self conscious about.

    I was in class one time and it was a very strict teacher and we we’re doing a test and I had to cough but I tried so hard not to that’s my body was just shaking and I couldn’t stop. I mentioned it this year and a girl looked at me and said “oh yea I remember that” and my brain just panicked there like “do people always remember things? Do people remember how I dropped my color pencils that one time? Do they remember when I ran into a pole?”

    I dated a guy who's sister was a nun. I met his super judgy parents for the first time on a visit to see said sister. There was a big fancy mass in a super echoey cathedral. I was sick. I literally blacked out and caused a small scene because I was trying so damn hard not to cough. And yes, I relive every detail. All. The. Time. The boyfriend thought it was funny. The mom, not so much. And me? I was obviously mortified.

    If acceptable where you live, also try tapping on their upper arm/shoulder if you can reach and say: excuse me. It helps! Another thing. I posted this at another article with a similar example. When people are standing in front of what you want to get. And you just stand (well sit, but I say stand/walk anyway) there, waiting for them to move. You are timid, but if this happens, I suggest just ask the person if they want to hand it to you. Since I ended up in my wheelchair (12 years ago), I became less shy! Now I just ask if they want to hand me the product. Same when something is too high to reach, I look in the aisle or the aisle over for someone to ask if they want to get it for me. And well, I can tell you, 99,9-100%, people are happy to get you something you can't reach! I have never encountered someone who was annoyed at me asking. They are always happy to help! Even though you are shy/timid, try it out! Your life can change! After a few times it becomes normal :-).

    That’s just plain common sense. Answer a scam call and your number will be placed on “positive” lists, resulting in more calls from unknown numbers from these scammers.

    20 scam calls in one single day after I made the mistake of answering a number I did not recognize. Took over a week for them to stop.

    Too many spam calls. My motto is "if it's important, they will leave a voicemail."

    Me, yesterday morning when a long distance call woke me early... Too many solicitors and scammers now-a-days. Got a credit card scammer call at 4am recently.

    I always answer with something that sounds like I made the call "I'd like a 24 inch pizza with pineapple and bacon," and then end with something that sounds like I picked up the call "thank you for your order, have a nice day"

    Oh damn, I've done that. Another thing is when someone asks you a question and you start typing, erase, type, erase and then just write "yeah", then feel like s**t cause the other person was expecting a long response... 😩

    I’m a bad person. If I’m in a text argument and someone wants to know what they’ve done wrong I’ll type out a load of random letters for about a minute and then not send it and delete the draft.

    Bootcamp helped me a lot with this, because when your name was called, you had to say in a loud and clear voice "me!" It stopped being awkward pretty quick. I still do this as a joke if somebody calls my name. ^^
