Overthinking is a very common thing to do. Whatever you're thinking about should be shared with your partner. They will understand and talk with you about it. If you hold in whatever you are thinking then that will only cause you more anxiety and nobody needs that.

First, pinpoint exactly what the cause of your overthinking is. Is it because you distrust your partner or is it because his or her actions? Once you know, try to identify why this is the case. Learning more about it can help you find possible solutions.

Just think of other perspective - would you personally do the things you over think?
We all know our partners so in a way we know how they will act in certain situation, so if we don't depend on the emotions that are at given moment, but try to think how our partners would act in a situation - it will be easier for us to rest.

You can't stop overthinking things in a relationship because it's natural to overthink things in a relationship, after all, relationships are between two people who try to trust each other, and sometimes, you're not really entire sure what you should think or feel once you're in a relationship. The best advice I can give is to just all negative thoughts from entering, like assuming.

Set some time to yourself. Recognize when your thoughts are getting the best of you. Consciously stop yourself. Ask yourself why you feel this way. Find a distraction, refocus your thoughts. Talk to your partner about your feelings.

Instead of internalizing your doubts, talk them over with your S.O. They will appreciate it much more than a later outburst that they did not know you were struggling with. Or they will admit that something is up and you can jump on the path to fixing things. xx

Distract yourself doing something you like to do. Convince yourself that you are worthy and amazing regardless of whether they stick around or not. Try focusing on staying happy, that will help you AND the relationship. :) â¤

The best way to go about this is to try to give yourself some space from it by having separate activities or friends. If it is a serious matter though, please bring it up with your partner and discuss it.

The Facebook "Seen" message gives me a lot of anxiety! When I see that the person has "seen" the message, but does not reply, I start thinking about all the possible reasons why they would 'ignore' me... Does anyone else feel this? If so, how do you cope?
