Overthinking Prints

That party went well.

Based On A True Story

No Immediate Danger

"If I go to the party alone, will I be able to leave when I want? But then, there's always the possibility that I will get stuck talking to someone. I can't shake the problem is me. What if no one else likes me? I'm the only one being critical... The issue is I'm not enough and it's really so huge." "The over thinker"

"Wake up, baby. I just realized how my insomnia is all your fault."

"Bark or stare? Always a tough decision. Bark? Maybe stare? Whimper? Maybe? Meanwhile, stare."

Maximum Insecurity Prison

Think - But not too much.

"My problem is I obsess over whether I worry enough."

"Good" "Bad" "Work on it" "Keep working - maybe it's not as bad as you think it is" "Put it to a committee" "Give up" "Make it worse" "Make it better" "Still a bad idea" "Overthink it" "Throw yourself into a pit of wild badgers" "Throw it away" "Call it done" "Sigh."

"It's days like this that make me long for days like this."

Four Types of Test-Takers...

Worry tank

"Is all this confusion and complexity necessary?"

"The overthinker"

"Isn't it an amazing co-incidence that this is an orange, and it IS ORANGE?"

"Ideas that jump from noggin when head not yet screwed on."

"Well, if you're still awake when the time changes, you'll lose an hour of overthinking everything, too."

A Hypochondriac's Worst Nightmare

"I'd like to be a shake-it-off kind of person, but I'm more of a cling-to-it-and-focus-on-it-until-it's-irrevocably-weaved-into-my-psyche sort of gal."

"Perhaps there is such a thing as being too well-informed."

"This may be Malcolm Gladwell talking, but we were married on the wrong day!"

"I think he said he wants to buy 'just the one'. You'd better fetch the manager"

"I made a list of all my symptoms. Lost the list. Can't remember any of my symptoms now."

You have reached the end of your brain...

'You look like you have a lot on your mind, Jim!'

The Thinker and The Reactor.

"You're overthinking this."

"I do my best thinking in the shower... do I need to run 5 miles a day in order to take one?"

'I'm worried about not being worried...'

"I asked you to hang a picture, how much more difficult can you make it?"

"Thanks a bunch. I'll just run these by our committee and pass them along."
