THE FUSE

On the outside, everything looks normal, even positive. People prone to overthinking have friends, go to work, pay their bills, and show up for many parts of their lives. For sure, many overthinkers don't appear overwhelmed on the outside to those who know them casually. But inwardly, their minds rarely take a break from those maddening thought spirals. Overthinkers incessantly replay conversations, dissecting them to see where they messed up. Furthermore, overthinkers also specialize in anticipating disasters, second-guessing their decisions, and predicting bad outcomes before they even happen.
