I Analyse Everything
But I'm not just talking about slightly analysing the big things. I over-analyse *everything*. It's frustrating because my mind never settles. Even when I'm performing some mind numbing activity my mind is still going 100 miles an hour. People cant ask me simple yes/no questions without me over thinking. Take for example this scenario:
Friend 1: hey want to get some pizza?
Friend 2: yeah
Me: why would you want to hang out eating pizza with me? What kind of pizza should we get? What size? What if they think im fat and greedy after eating some? Oh god im so fat. Theyre just being nice because they have to be. Maybe theyre being nice because they want something. Whats the catch?....
(Yeah, you get the picture)
Its good to be able to analyse things for university or particular jobs and things but having this constant state of mind is exhausting. And I'm aware it's not just exhausting for me but others around me. Unfortunately no matter how much I try to stop. No matter how much I try to switch off my brain. Nothing works.
