Overthinking has been a big problem in most of the peoples life. Gives you a negative attitude, affects your relations with friends, family etc. How can you possibly stop yourself from overthinking when probably you have no control of what to think?

Find space and time to clear your mind. Some people call that meditating. Silence is underrated. Focusing on your breathing will help you to stop thinking (thinking words anyway), having the patience to sit and be in silence is another thing altogether, takes practice.

I'm a over thinker person and once I over think I'll think of the worst, there is this one scenario when I over think then me and my bestfriend argue about it. Like I always tell him that I can't trust you because I can't see you, I can't see what's your doing for the whole day maybe your lying and I know that those things made me hurt him a lot Sad

I know it's not right to overthink but I just can't avoid it. Because when I overthink strikes a person it will result argument.. So once overthinking strikes me I'll try to avoid to talk to that person and let myself cool down for a bit.

I personally say that I'm an over-thinker even my the ideas that comes in my mind I overthink whether that is beneficial or not for me. But What I did is i meditate and relax myself in that case it lessen my thinking. It is like refreshing your owns mind.

It depends on what you are thinking about. If it calls for solution, you could seek guidance from a close relative.

Do not always think of the mind you should show in your case so that you can plan your life in your mind when you go to your life as you do not have your own

I overthink all the time, and I notice no negative side effects from it other than not being able to fall asleep easily. Quite on the contrary, I'd say the net effect is overwhelmingly positive.

Your problem seems to be a lack of focus and its resulting compulsion. If you want to practice focus you can just try to pay attention to your breath and increase the duration of that exercise over time, or practice calculations or other short-term memory tasks in your head.

Write something you're thinking about
If only you think about it, the mind will become more numerous. So what's wrong with trying to write everything you have in your mind into a piece of paper. It will help you a lot and lighten the burden of your mind. By writing your problem or what step you will take, who knows you will find the solution or choice you will take. Writing your every thought before you sleep is probably a good idea. It can also make you sleep more soundly.

multiply take action
This is the most important and perhaps the most difficult. However, if you want to change your life, you need to take action now. If you just think, this will not work. Talking about this might be easy, but it's a difficult practice. However, you have to motivate yourself.

Just keep yourself busy. Work, work, work!!!

focus on solutions
Always point your mind to "way out", so the problem can be solved as precisely and immediately as possible. If you feel the problem can be controlled, then the next step is you should be able to prevent it from happening again.
Dare to take some options, just in case the first solution does not go as planned. You still have second and third planning.
Focus on things you can control, such as your attitude and effort.

Kind of cheesy, but "live in the moment"..

The overthinking generally happends because one feels the need to analyse evertything that is happening and going to happen, yet nothing ever goes like imagined no matter how much you have thought it through..

Learn Mental Skill Skills
The wise man said, it is impossible to return the time that has passed and do not worry about what will happen tomorrow, because you live in the present time.
If you are skilled at mastering your own mind, then you can give attention to what you are doing now and focus more on what you do.
Just like any other skill, mastering the mind takes practice and over time, it can help overthink.

Reflect on Thoughts
Burying the problem for too long can make you an unproductive person, but this problem can be helped by doing a brief reflection.
Spend 20 minutes to "me time" in your daily schedule. During that period, let yourself dissolve into reflection or think about whatever you want.
When it's over, move somewhere else and do what makes your heart happy.

challenge your mind
Humans are generally easily carried away negative thoughts. So before you conclude that skipping a deadine or a deadline for office work can get you fired, then that's where you're overtthinked.
Remember also that emotions can interfere with your ability to perceive situations objectively.
