    Here's how you can support your overthinking partner

    What's the story

    Is your partner someone who frequently overthinks? Well, there are certain things you can do to support them.

    Overthinkers have distinctive personality traits that set them apart, yet it can occasionally be difficult to love one.

    Here are some encouraging words that you can use to support your significant other before they jump onto a never-ending trail of thoughts.

    Statement 1

    Reassure them

    Your partner may worry excessively and consider the worst-case scenarios because they overthink circumstances. Show your love and care often even if they know you love them.

    Say things like "I am here for you, no matter what" or "Whatever it may be, we will face it together."

    Similarly, remind them that you don't hate them even if you both get into a disagreement.

    Statement 2

    Compliment them

    It can be immensely motivating to remind your partner of their prior accomplishments and successes.

    Say, "Consider all the challenges you have already overcome. You have come so far, so I do not doubt that you can get through this as well."

    Thinking back on earlier successes strengthens their conviction that they are strong and capable of overcoming obstacles.

    Statement 3

    Encourage them to unwind or take breaks

    Constant thinking can be both mentally and physically exhausting. Thus, encourage them to take breaks and do what they like.

    Consider saying, "Why don't we take a break now and think about it later".

    Make plans to do something stressless together. A much-needed break from overthinking can be found by partaking in peaceful activities, such as walking, exercising together, or watching a movie.

    Statement 4

    Respect their concerns

    When their concerns are real, acknowledge them and reassure them. Recognize that the overthinker in your life is going through a struggle when they express concern about something.

    Remind them that there is a solution to their issue somewhere while acknowledging that it is natural for them to be concerned about anything.

    You could say, "Your concerns are valid. I can relate."

    Statement 5

    Suggest doable actions

    Gently proposing, "Let's focus on what we can control in this situation, instead of dwelling on what might happen," will help direct your partner's thoughts in a positive direction.

    Encourage them to focus their efforts on taking concrete measures and fixing problems.

    This change in perspective gives your partner more control over their thoughts and behavior, lessening the hold overthinking has on them.
