Overthinking

in overthink •  7 years ago 

Ever happened to you in life.? That sometimes you are just living and don't have an answer or the purpose for the same. You need a strong solid reason for your living otherwise you feel worthless,aimless,helpless,clueless. You find negative energy everywhere. Whatever work it may be, you feel what good it will do if you do that and ultimately you end up doing nothing.
You have everything. Life is perfect. You have friends,family,facilities and everything is there. Except for an aim? It's not like you need something to live,but anyway you feel hollow.

That feeling of pain,however is not what everyone faces. But OVERTHINKERS does. Yes,I overthink. It may be easy for people to say that the solution for it is simple. STOP OVERTHINKING! and everything will be changed. But no, I cannot even explain you the feeling one faces in such situation. It is a feeling of depression. Everything seems to fall apart. You just break down because you are so messed up inside your head. And it is not your fault because you hell cannot control your mind and your thoughts.

This is something I am going through in my life right now.
Thankyou.

What your facing is sometimes called existential crisis, can i ask you first if you are atheist or believer?

I actually am an atheist,not because I don't believe anything,but because I don't feel it

So i am assuming you are rational & logical person. I agree with you that you can't just stop overthinking, i do the same for many things, but for ultimate objective of life you have to explore things deeper to find true meaning of everything. Same like butterfly effect, everything plays at-least a little part for something bigger, so your life is not meaningless at all, it does contribute to something. I also went through phase of hollowness which you are facing, i tried exploring human nature, divine books, science books, nature etc but i am at peace now. I cannot suggest an easy solution or easier path right away because everybody's struggle is different, so I suggest you to do the same to dig deeper.

Well,it's easily said than done. Anyway,thankyou so much. I shall apply the logic when I feel motivated and positive enough.
