Below are some of most persistent feelings we come across in day to day life with their message, impact and outcomes:
*Disclaimer: The situations below are solely provided for informational and educational purposes. These are not meant to identify specific individuals.*
Person A: Sometimes I think a lot on some situation, feels like few people are trying to avoid me, or they are not in a mood to talk, but I'm overthinking a lot in this situation, thinking to call the person and talk to them, but then another thought flashes, what if that person rejects my call or don't pick my call?
Student Counsellor: Our brains are adept at creating scenarios when it only knows 20% of the whole story. This urge to fill in the other 80% with assumptions often results in incorrect conclusions. Nevertheless, we should be able to distinguish between pointless thoughts and reality based on the available facts. In most cases, assumptions may account for more of the situation than the reality.
The strong need for friendship, as well as the need to blend in and be accepted, lead to the persistent urge to be near people and seek their attention, approval, and acceptance. When a child's emotional needs are not satisfied, these concerns of a persistent need for acceptance from others may surface as an adult.
However, in the majority of cases, the other person may be attending to their own problems and lack the necessary physical or mental energy to operate in accordance with your needs. It is critical to shift viewpoints and reconsider rather than overthink. Try keeping a notebook if you feel like you are overanalyzing anything.
