“We all know that feeling of being lonely in the whole damn world, despite the number of people around us. We are alone, in our own company. Surrounded by our thoughts and no superpower in the entire universe can help us to get rid of them. We cannot escape them just as we can’t stop our own imagination. We overthink non-stop. I hate it. I hate it. I hate it.”

“Overthinking can lead to worrying which leads to anxiety. Anxiety can at times be crippling, leave people frozen and unable to act. Overthinking can also lead to depression. Either of these can leave you unable to focus, feeling hopeless, and irritable.”

“Hey! What have you been thinking?
It's been an hour now and you are barely blinking.
Is it stress of love or career that you seek,
Or are you running a movie of all that you want to be?
Are you scared of failing or trying to procrastinate,
Oh! I get it, you are fumbling on that song to which you relate.
To be in your head seems like a good place,
You have your walls up and that is now your safe space.
Staring at that wall with worn out paint,
Your pupil just dilated,did you think of him again?”
