Your mind goes back over things.
After they’ve already happened.
What was said.
What you did.
What it might mean.
Then it runs again.
You try to make sense of it.
But it doesn’t settle.
Sometimes it shows up as:
replaying conversations
thinking about what you should have said
going over situations repeatedly
questioning your reactions
not being able to let things go
You might have told yourself:
leave it
stop thinking about it
move on
But it keeps coming back.
It’s not always about the moment itself.
Something keeps it active.
You don’t need to resolve it here.
