According to psychology, the biggest problem for overthinkers is that when they get too attached to someone, their entire mood depends on how the other person responds to them. They are so attuned to other people's emotions that they can notice the slightest change in someone's behavior. Learn to regulate your emotions. If you are being controlled by your own emotions, you will end up hurting either yourself or them in the end. So if you love an overthinker, there are things you need to know. Their neediness isn't simply neediness, it's fear. I promise you, no one is more tired by their overactive mind than they are. They live with it every day and wish they could live life without the dozen hypotheticals invading each moment. But they can't. It's sometimes difficult to see. But there is beauty in overthinking. Those people who are most afraid to hurt are also the ones who love the most. If you love an overthinker, you should appreciate that. Be there for them. Tell them you're not going away. Reassure them. They are still learning to trust. They're learning to let go of their fears. Because the one before you walked away after love got a little hard. They are fighting every day to win the biggest battle. The battle against their own mind.
