In today's episode I will be discussing overthinking. In my last episode I discussed catastrophizing, I consider overthinking to be catastrophizing’s equally unhelpful sibling. Overthinking and catastrophizing can stem from similar pasts as a way to cope with trauma, however, like siblings they have their own unique elements.
Do you ever find yourself constantly ruminating, going over a situation over and over again in your mind as if on replay, or, do you catch yourself thinking through as many possible scenarios as you can before moving forward? Do you feel it is safer to think about than to act on a decision? If so, you could be experiencing overthinking due to trauma. If you are experiencing overthinking, it can cause you to become hyper-focused on your own thoughts, grow anxious about your inability to understand and manage them and end up preventing you from taking action. This can cause stagnation and can be incredibly uncomfortable and stifling.
