Overthinkers! Learn the gift of stoicism, if you CAN do something about it, why worry when the ball is in your control. If you CAN'T do something about it, why worry when the ball is not in your court? This is not something you can grasp overnight as life doesn't work like that, but it helps mitigate the issues with overthinking.
As for brooding on the past, two parts; don't envy your own past as nothing but pain lies beyond that gate. You cannot control nor change what is set in stone, what matters is how you let it affect you. Hence why I tend to ask myself why does this part bother me? I start to rationalize both, knowing why it bothers me AND understanding I was a different person and moving on is healthier than torturing yourself. I also add a bit extra comfort by asking what did I learn from that situation so as to avoid it from happening again.
I hope my own anecdotes help others out as I know I'm prone to going down those darker emotions if I don't keep them in check. It's not a problem solved overnight, but a task that has to be kept up with, maintained like exercising. Perhaps your stress too will follow.

Stranger passing by: Hi, how are ya?
Me: Good.
My mind: Oh no, I didn't ask 'How are you' back! It's too late to say it now! Now I look like an asshole who doesn't care about others! I messed up! He's gonna remember that for the rest of his life! He's gonna tell his friends about it! If there was a chance to be that guy's friend, it's completely gone now! I keep making bad first impressions on everyone! This is why I'm alone!

I apologize way too much. Every little thing i say to my friends make me feel like i said something wrong, I always feel like my friends hate me and think Im annoying. My friend didnt answer my texts once and i got so worried at school that maybe theyre feeing down or that i did something wrong, i couldnt focus at all.

Can you please make a video on how to deal with the feelings of pessimism, nihilism and what to do when you feel like the world's ending? I think such feelings are more common now than ever because of coronavirus, invasion and wars going on across the globe.

Random strangers can look at me wrong and Im wondering what I did wrong. Do I have anything on my face? Is my expression weird? Is there something else entirely? Why did they look at me? But I relate to this to a tee. Its awful.

When you overthink anytime you make the conversation about yourself thinking you're self absorbed even though realistically you haven't vented to anyone you know in a while and tend to avoid talking about your emotions-

I know this sounds absurd. But I heard that overthinkers are actually very intelligent because they are easily able to think outside the box and are full of ideas which cause them to be somewhat scatterbrained

I think that overthinking is caused by tragic experiences of Life again and again!
Overthinkers are really sincere creatures on this selfish planet.
They care a lot about what other people think of them!

Who else feels the same way that when you send a joke and that person dont replys then you start worrying if it was a bad joke and the person is upset.
And it ends that you apologize.

If We see clearly Those who overthink are actually very nice and kind with people but The problem is that They just Afraid of being embarrassed in public. Totally relatable

Friend gets inspired by my idea to make their own idea and doesnt match my passion for it as I inspired them.

it's great when you try to book a holiday then plan for every eventuality that could happen until eventually it's easier just to give up and not bother

When you say something bad to someone without doing it on purpose, you think about it ALL day, you start to have headaches, it's horrible.
