- overthinking can leads to serious issues,
When we spend too much time analyzing our problems and dilemmas, we rarely find a solution and realize that we have spent so much time on it. And worse, it can have a significant impact on our mood, sleep, and concentration Which leads to further worry. thereby creating a vicious cycle of overthinking.
Some worry is normal. Eg: if you are unwell, you reach out to a doctor. But sometimes it backfires, especially if you are too worried. you start to excessively scan yourself or the people you care about for signs of illness, this threat monitoring will lead only to a heightened sense of danger and more health-related worries. Another example is constantly keeping an eye out for whether people like you, trying to figure out what they think of you, which inadvertently results in you becoming more distant, non-participatory and worried, and not being able to enjoy their company.
Many of you think that you have no control over your thoughts. They just appear and automatically and develop into hour-long ruminations about how bad things are now, or into catastrophic worries about what could go wrong in the future.
What to do?
Identify triggers: We get thousands of thoughts everyday. We don’t pay attention to all, they just come and go. But some thoughts grab our attention. And that leads to some bodily sensations and feelings. Some trigger thoughts can activate warmth and joy about an exciting upcoming project, meeting a friend, or a holiday you’re looking forward to. These kinds of trigger thoughts are, of course, unproblematic. Other trigger thoughts, however, might activate a long series of further thoughts that can develop into worries or ruminations. Worries typically form around hypothetical scenarios and start with ‘What if…’ statements such as: ‘What if I make the wrong decision?’ ‘What if they won’t like me?’ ‘What if I get ill?’ and so on. Typical rumination, on the other hand, starts with thoughts about what, why and how: ‘What is wrong with me?’ ‘Why am I feeling this way?’ ‘How do I get better?’
One way is to see them as news headlines. They come and go. If you get caught up then you will get carried away with it. So just let the thought be and it shall pass.
Recognise what you can and cannot control: if you start giving importance to all or most of your thoughts then it might begin to feel as if it happens automatically. You might, understandably, come to believe that it’s outside your control.
It’s true, the trigger thoughts themselves are completely automatic. But we are blessed with choice; you can choose to attend it or not. Its like a phone call. The call comes which is not in your control but whether you want to pick it or not is definitely in your control.
Have a worry time: It has to be a set time of the day, for instance 7.30pm to 8pm, where you allow yourself to worry and ruminate freely. That way, when trigger thoughts or feelings occur during the day - for instance, you feel the need to evaluate your health or reflect upon what your friends think of you - try postponing these thoughts to your scheduled worry/rumination time (you might tell yourself: ‘I’ll deal with this later’). One note of caution: you might want to avoid scheduling your worry time within one or two hours of when you plan to go to bed, especially if you’re prone to insomnia or other sleep difficulties.
Avoid avoidance and train your attention: Avoiding thoughts is not only largely futile, it’s also counterproductive. If you avoid them then you won’t get the chance to practise letting go of these thoughts. I recommend that you give yourself daily challenges that involve trigger thoughts, and that you practise instructing yourself to leave them alone until a designated worry-time. You won’t succeed every time but you will gradually learn, like how you learn to cook or drive your car.
Mindfulness exercise is helpful. You must have noticed that overthinking mostly involves past or future, eg., what happened or what if this happens. Mindfulness teaches you to be in the present moment. In my next video I will teach you to be in the present and let go of thoughts by not getting carried away. - Jak na to + styl

Ma'am, when I was in class 11 I had exam stress and I showed symptoms like gastric trouble, heart palpitations.
