Overthinking : A growing disease
All the time everybody has something going on his mind which we have named as thinking but as we know excess of everything is bad and when we start thinking more and more so we named it as overthinking . It is an unhealthy habit and it self it is not too bad to think at all but it can cause to huge mental illness such as depression, insomnia, anxiety and stress and it can also affect your experience that how you engage the world. And I think it is one of the most growing illness in my sorroudings so, today I will discuss all about overthinking that I have examined around me
Causes :
Here interesting thing is that there is not any special cause of overthinking and this disease is mostly found in introvert whose life is not social so the just like to live alone and think that what other people think about them and this is the most basic cause about it which can further lead to a serious issue but still have some other causes which I have noticed
Focusing on the negative
Focusing on the negative is also known as negative Bias The human who have tendency to give more importance to negative things instead of positive . In simple words we can say a person who has negative thoughts will always see thedark side of matters even making a decision he will think negatively about it and have fear in doing it because he has negative thoughts
Dwelling on the past
Some people may have experience a bad time or they had did some mistakes or have fraud in the past and they never want to drop it so their mind never wants to leave the topic and unwillingly they have to carry the weight of their bad experience in the form of overthinking and mental illness. They always repent even on their smallest mistakes and say if they they had did something else they didn't have to repent over it they never want accept the reality as well as most of them don't forgive themselves of being victim of their own mistakes and that leads them to be an over thinker.
Worrying about the future
This is the major cause of overthinking is all about future planning I am not saying that future planning is bad but overthinking about it is not good at all people are over concerned obot their future they plan about it but an overthinker would also have some negative thoughts in it so he will never remain stable on a single decision and think over which is not right for him
Final words and solution
In final words I would like to say that there is only one quote if you learned it you can get rid of it this is not my own quote but I have heard it somewhere from a Chinese movie
"Your past is the history. Your future is a mystery but today is a gift therefore it is called present 🎁 "
Therefore live in today not to dwell in past or worry about future just work hard and believe in GOD and enjoy every pasing second.
"
We should live in the present and should learn something from our past these things will make our future
