I always blurt out what I am going to say without really thinking about it. Now as you can imagine this has gotten me in a lot of trouble over the years, it also means that I haven't processed the thought, and then blurt out the next 20 reasoning follow ups, until eventually I have confused myself, I can't remember my most poignant opinion and really am just an all round mess.
In some ways its great, for example I will text my best friend and this is how the conversation will go;
Me - what does it mean when this happens?
(before she has had a chance to reply..)
Me - Oh it probably means this, doesn't it.
(still rambling, new text.)
Me - Unless of course this was the circumstance, then in that case this would happen.
(She's trying to reply but I'm not giving her enough time)
Me - Yeah, thats what will happen thanks!
(FINALLY SHE GETS A WORD IN EDGEWAYS)
Her- Yes, lol, you're right.
She has learnt I need to proper ramble, get out all of my options though before she even makes a contribution. So in that sense, over thinking is good because it means I can eventually solve things out on my own, with only confirmation needed.
Until it goes the other way and suddenly you're panicking and its panic on top of panic and by the end of it you're convinced you're the worst person in the entire universe, you took everything a step too far and everyone is out and gunning for you.
(Again, my best friend is right there keeping me rooted to the ground telling me to shut up and calm down and actually giving me a responsible, sensible answer)
I hate being an over thinker, I wish I was laid back enough to once I have made a decision thats that. Decision made, choice over, no second guessing, just accept things for what they are.
I can admit, however, that the only reason why my over thinking is bad at the moment is purely because the decisions and things that require thinking aren't necessarily the good type, but more a case of me being upset (of course its 99% about boys who have upset me one way or another!)
But when my head is clearer, and its a simple thought going through my head, I quite enjoy the pros and cons arguments I have with myself (even when I push it onto my friends its still a one sided conversation until I have finished rambling)
Even this blog is a case of over thinking! Or is it... I mean... it could be...?
