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...

Everyone who is in college right now, or has ever been, knows the struggle of pulling in the strings at the last second. It seems impossible, and you have to do a LOT of things in order to assure your future for the next semester.

Ask friends of mine to name a quality about me, and one a lot them will point out the fact that I am almost always smiling. I like to laugh and smile -- not to quote Buddy the Elf in April, but smiling is my favorite! It is probably my favorite go-to expression. However, what a lot of people do not see is that I have my down days. I have days when smiling and laughing is a real struggle, or when I have so much on my plate that going out of my way to behappy takes more effort than I have stored in me. Be it a symptom of college and growing up or a facet of life, I cannot always be content.
