why do i overthink everything

Your mind keeps going over things.

Even after they’re finished.

You replay what happened.

What you said.

What it might mean.

Then you go over it again.

From a different angle.

You try to understand it fully.

Get it right.

Make sense of it.

But it doesn’t settle.

Sometimes it shows up as:

replaying conversations
thinking about what you should have said
imagining different outcomes
questioning your decisions
going over the same thoughts repeatedly

You might have told yourself:

stop overthinking
let it go
move on

But it keeps returning.

It’s not always about the situation itself.

But something keeps it active.

You don’t need to resolve it here.
