If you are the type of person that over thinks about every little thing than according to Lindsay Holmes of Huffington Post that sense of self doubt and constant uncertainty is something that may lead to digestive problems and high blood pressure.

Although their are health risks there are a multiple of benefits. In a published journal in cognitive science there is a study that shows that the part of the brain that hosts the overthinking parts of us is also responsible for our imagination.

“If neurotic people tend to think more about problems due to having a lot of threat-related self-generated thoughts — which explains their tendency to feel unhappy — it seems likely they will have a better chance to create solutions to those problems, compared to low scorers on neuroticism who look on the bright side of life all the time,” Adam Perkins, one of the paper’s authors, previously told The Huffington post.

So if you are overthinking about how much you overthink then stop stressing. You are just way too imaginative for your own good.
