Does anyone else think…too deeply?
So this is not a discussion about simply thinking deeply.
I’m curious if anyone thinks TOO deeply about certain things. Or rather, “take the thought too far”.
Here’s an example.
Let’s say you have a friend who you care for deeply. It’s late and you’ve been hanging out and they have to drive home. They leave and you suddenly get a thought that they might get in a wreck. For most people that’s enough to bother them.
But instead of leaving at just “what if they wreck”, you start thinking of how the wreck would occur, their body motions during the collision, the sounds of fear and hurt of them afterwards. Just the most accurate and horrifying moments of the whole scenario.
This is how I often think. And not by choice. Not all of my thoughts are like this but most of the time, if they involve people I really care about, they do go this route. And it’s deeply disturbing
I hate it.
