In your head(overthinking)

Overthinking or overanalyzing a situation, becoming preoccupied with a problem. 

to the point of it being unproductive or having thoughts that are not based in reality.

Let me break this down from my perspective. Through all the chaos and uncertainty in this world, from the government shutdown to our daily life struggles.

We seem to be in our heads more than we sometimes need to be.

Worrying daily about all the adult things we have to do in life, and sometimes getting stuck in those adult things.

In your head, and overthinking everything from relationships, and even how to maintain those relationships.

I find myself in my head a lot because, as a writer, I am a natural thinker, but at the end of the day, it's more harmful than good.

I have a natural curiosity, and when things happen and they don't add up, I begin to analyze them in my head to the point that overthinking is the result.

I have to admit, when you have any sense of intelligence, you are constantly in your head.

We have to begin to let go of the in your head and overthinking mentality because it, like anything else we overindulge in, will cost us our mental health and sanity.

My advice is that we must learn to get out of our heads and focus on things we can control.
