I’ve always been an overthinker. It’s something I’ve come to accept as a natural part of being a sensitive soul. However, it takes time. I wasn’t always
able to articulate what my mind was going through when I was overthinking, but when I learnt of the term analysis paralysis, it all made sense. When I first looked up the phrase, I instantly recognised everything that was being described. I was finally able to put a name to what I was feeling. The definition is that it is “the state of over-analysing a situation so that a decision or action is never taken, in effect paralysing the outcome.
Although we are growing up in a more connected world than our parents thanks to the rise of technology and social media, we have increasingly disengaged and isolated ourselves from one another. These phenomena have us obsessing over every “like”, “comment” and “share” a post gets, leading us to stress over trivial matters that aren’t actually worth it in the grand scheme of things. With my own experience of analysis paralysis, I initially ruled it to be a part of my dramatic nature.
