How to stop thinking too much?

See answer: an idle mind can be very dangerous. Thinking is good if it is focused and constructive. Free floating thoughts lead to trouble. Use some discipline to structure your mind and stay constructive

About what?: Brooding or thinking too much about something over and over can reflect too much stress, anxiety or even depression. If over thinking is getting you down or interfering with your routine, talk to your pcp and ask for advice or referral to a mental health professional for guidance if over thinking persists. Take care.
