7 Overanalyses Of An Overthinker

I can't help but overthink everything. As an over-thinker, I spend half my time living my life, while the other half is spent thinking about how to live my life. To be honest, it's exhausting. But if I ever stop, I feel like I am going to do the wrong thing because I didn't think about it before. And the cycle keeps on rolling. We have to accept that we just overthink everything and try to keep it to a minimum. But no matter what people say, its a part of you. Or is it?

1. You overthink you think too much.

Basically, you are thinking about how you think and never stop overthinking. Sometimes it feels like there is just no end.

2. Your friends are constantly telling you you're over thinking.

But once they do this, you have to think if they're mad at you or not. And you go from overthinking what you were thinking before, to overthinking that. And after it all, you're just like...

3. Trying on clothes is an overly stressful process.

When I try on an outfit I have to look at it and think if there's too much cleavage, whether the suede boots are too sexy and should I go for the leather ones, or if I'm too casual or too dressy and so on. And if one of these things doesn't work, I have to take it all off and start over. Even though this sounds like your average girl, we over-thinkers take it one step further, sometimes even down to not going to things because nothing works.

4. You worry whether you posted too much on social media.

I mean this picture is cute, and that one is funny... but will people think I'm on my phone too much? Will they be annoyed I posted so much? It's fall break, it's totally fine to post this many pictures of my dog. *Five minutes later* nope, nope, *deletes story* It's an hourly struggle.

5. Texting your crush is the hardest process alive.

You have to think about who texted first last time, whether your message is too long or too short, figuring out when to send it, what words to use, or if you dare even use an emoji. And then if he doesn't reply right away... you start to plan your funeral because he either isn't replying because he hates you or finds you annoying. But really, the poor guy is just really bad at replying, in class, or taking a nap. But is he though? That is the question...

6. Group Chats are stressful.

Did I send too many texts compared to the other people? I'm the only one who sends pictures, does that make me annoying? NO ONE IS REPLYING... Welp I guess my dog can be my best friend.

7. And you are always trying to not to overthink and not care what others think...but you always end up back where you were...on the ground... crying.

So for the sake of our family and friends, let's try and...

I've known you your entire life. More than likely I held you in the first three days of it and at least one of us cried. Cousins are truly one of the best things in the world and while sometimes I complain about how many people crowd Grandma's living room on Christmas Eve, I wouldn't trade you all anything.

You are my best friends, the only people who can understand what it's like on Thanksgiving, and you are the spunkiest people I have ever met. But you as so so young, most of you are just now starting your adventures in the public education system. I mean, I'm so very young too. I'm not married, I don't have children, heck, I just started my adult life, but I do want to give you what little advice I have. My dears, these are the things I want you to know.

You are a senior in high school, you have made it to the final year that you have been looking forward to since the first day of freshman year. Whether this has been the worst or best four years of your life, appreciate it. You will never have these times back, you will never be in high school again. It is hard for someone still in high school to wrap their brain around, but there will be a day when you wish you could be in the shoes you're in right now. Here are 15 things I have learned being in college that I wish I knew as a high school senior:

Everyone, and I mean everyone has heard of the show "One Tree Hill". Many people think that this show is the best thing they've ever watched and others won't bother watching it because they know they'll get hooked. And yes, I know many people have written about this show before, but I couldn't resist. I could re-watch every season multiple times to the point where I can almost quote an entire scene. Trust me, once you start "One Tree Hill", you will be hooked. There's way too many reasons to list as to why you'll love this show, and these are just a few.

The first two weeks of classes have come to an end and they have been anything BUT easy. It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

Although this seems like the best solution, it is also the easy way out. Take it from the girl who took basically a whole week off from her life because she just could not handle everything that was being thrown at her. This caused her to feel extremely lonely and even more stressed out for being behind in classes that JUST began.
