overthinking should at least burn calories

I hate to think how good I'd look if this were real 🙃

Oh my goodness, I'd be bones. Chronic overthinker here. Lol

Aw thank you for sharing that though! I really appreciate that you were okay with being vulnerable and sharing. 

Someone recommended doing the 5,4,3,2,1 thing but I always forget the order and the spiral but maybe I should try ABCs. Sometimes it's the most simple things that are most effective 

I'm cracking up at the overthinking overthinking 🤣 so real

🫂 sometimes I'll legit get dizzy because my brain is catastrophizing in all the directions, all i can do is lay down, close my eyes.
And try to interrupt the pattern. 

I've only told 1 person this, cause it sounds ridiculous when I say it out loud. 

But for awhile now the ONLY thing that breaks that catastrophizing cycle in my brain... don't judge me. (Lol idk why it works it just does.)
I rapid fire sing the ABCs on repeat in my head, in order until the intrusive thoughts tries to return. Then I restart at the letter A. 
I rarely make it to the end of the alphabet. Usually have to restart at  "D" 
But forcing myself to focus solely on this, has been a life saver for
Me. 

Thousands I've spent in therapy, to find relief in the damn ABCs, 😄 🤷‍♀️
🤦‍♀️

Yes.. I'm currently over thinking this reply even. But gonna cast it anyway. Lol
