Choose a career in Psychology.

 

Seriously, there probably isn't a way you can change your perception of the world. My only advice on this would be to try to occupy your mind with different topics to analyze- like how you could improve your life, etc. Try to take the focus off others and place it on you.

 

And you don't always have to say what you're thinking, either. If over-analyzing is ruining your relationship, try to edit at least some of what you say to your partner.

 

If you always tend to ananlyze your partner's actions in a negative way, then you may have some insecurities inside.

Seriously i think this is a serious problem that i have to solve. i sometime catch myself analysing things like y cement is cured and the ratios and y the strenght of concrete is strong on certain mix. I then try to work out y the decided to mi it that way, about the load factor that the road will encounter and that the concrete should or should not handle the load.....

You have a very hungry mind.

 

Ok here's some questions:

 

*Do you ever do anything to relax?

 

*Do you have trouble sleeping at night because you're awake thinking?

 

*If you're trying to focus on something, i.e. TV, a book, are you distracted by your thoughts?

 

*Do you have one-sided conversations with people? For example: do you do all the talking or interrupt people when they're talking, in order to tell them what you're thinking?

i do this too but mainy just to my relationship with my gf which is not ideal!

 

i'm not over it and don't think i ever will be but finding other things to do does help, something that keeps your mind occupied, like reading a book or magazine.

 

ps.

do you do it more often when you're tired?

hey skippy,

 

I know exactly what you're talking about.

 

when i was little a always used to stare at the walls, ceilings, the sky and at pictures. I also used to be afraid of music. My family thought i was crazy or something, but as i got older i began to draw and paint and compose songs on the piano. When I was little my mind was gathering information to put onto paper and now im a cartoonist and a piano major in college.

 

You may have a hidden ability/gift that you're just not aware of yet. just be yourself and don't feel strange about the things you do or think of

wow..yeah i have the same problem...I overthink things wayyy too much. Its gotten to the point where i cant even watch a movie w/o thinking of the behind the scene special effects or the overall plot of the story. Its even gotten to the point where I have trouble sleeping at night..I find myself awake at early hrs. just writing poetry, scripts, short stories, painting, drawing...Its like my mind is constantly analyzing things, situations, places, details....and i cant control it somtimes, it gets on my family's nerves alot...Know one in my family has this prob. but me??? hmmm...

[Jonboy582]

Wow there is alot of us in this same boat, and I have sleeping problems cos of it aswell. I will lie in bed for hours on end from like 12 till 2:30 thinking and thats after thinking for hours before going to bed. Gets on my wick it really does.

There is no way to stop it. You could "stuff" your brain with so much info to analyze it you will get bored and go back analyzing relationships. Trust me on this one. It is something you have to live with. I am much like you guys.
