Do you feel like you overanalyze things more than you should and constantly judge yourself for his mistakes?

When you think about something constantly negatively and more than you should, you cause disturbance and stress to yourself and sometimes it happens for trivial reasons. How will you fix it? Below I have some tips for you.

  • Free your thoughts

Did you make a mistake and constantly judge yourself negatively? Are you stuck on this thought and haven’t stopped analyzing it? One reason we might get stuck in a self-critical thought is because we think it’s actually true.

Instead, you can remind yourself that it is simply something your brain is creating and not a real event. That’s the only way you’ll deal with this pointless over-analysis. So it’s good to see everything exactly as it is and not to “inflate” things. Let your thoughts be free, see them logically and observe them. Distract yourself at that moment, listen to music, go outside, see a friend, so your mind can take a break.

  • Practice self-compassion

How about being kinder to yourself? You made a human error, accept it and move on. Talk to yourself and give him objective advice. Ask the following question. What would you say to a friend if they told you about this problem? So as you would speak to him, so speak to yourself. Recognize that you are a human being who makes mistakes and that is normal and okay.

  • Write down your thoughts – but do it strategically

One of the best ways to deal with a recurring thought or memory is to write down what you are thinking and feeling at the time. So grab a paper and pencil and get started. However, don’t fall into the trap of writing continuously and without limits. It would be better to set a timer for two minutes and write down everything that comes to mind when you think about something unpleasant that you said or that happened to you.

If you feel this helped you a bit, set another timer and write down your feelings about it. Keep doing this until you reach a natural stopping point, or find yourself repeating the same things over and over again. By putting these thoughts on paper, you will accept some feelings, embrace them and move on.
