Is overthinking a mental disorder?

No its not, Its normal and everyone has to understand it first. Its like a closed end street. One side is your Past and the other is Future. In simple words , you can say Worries and Stress. They wont let you live in a moment.

I would say that it isn't a mental disorder. Lots of people over think about things. It just means that your worried or nervous about something. If you are over thinking a lot, you may be experiencing something called Anxiety.

it's perfectly normal for everyone who has alot of plans and things to think about , but doing it often can infect the mood and mental health.

It depends. It's completely normal to overthink some things. However; it becomes a symptom of social anxiety when it affects your life. You find yourself overthinking the smallest details; the ones a different person wouldn't even think twice about it.

Not necessarily but it can collect until the point that it becomes unhealthy. Talk to a counselor about what is on your mind. I am quite the over-thinker myself so I have compassion for your situation.

No. It's quite normal to overthink. We're biologically wired to analyse things. So if you're overthinking, it just means you're thoroughly thinking about things that you are clearly uncertain about. Sometimes it's good to discuss your thoughts with a supportive network. (ie family or friends.)

No its not, but sometimes overthinking can lead you to a disorder. Because when you overthink you think about same thing again and again which is harmful for mental well being.

Overthinking is not a specific disorder so to speak, but it can lead to anxiety or stress so be careful and dont worry!

I think it's a problem not a mental disorder. I over think all the time and sometimes I am able to control it, often times not. While being cautious is good, over thinking can literally take your peace of mind away. I do believe over thinking can cause anxiety and anxiety causes over thinking and over stressing.

Medically, I do not believe so. However, overthinking can have severe effects on your daily life and mental state. Overthinking can be a symptom of some mental disorders and can cause stress. One thing you can do to help, is have a close friend or a caring family member help you look through what you are over thinking; Have them help you list out things you might need to do in relation to this subject, tell them your concerns about it, & above all: Do your best not to panic. Panicking can lead to more over thinking, and can make these methods less affective. If you choose to treat overthinking like a mental disorder, be cautious, like with any other mental disorder.
