Why Overthinking Is So Exhausting: How It Drains Your Nervous System
If you’re searching for an intrusive thoughts therapist in NJ or struggling with overthinking and rumination, you’re not alone. Many adults feel mentally drained, even when life looks “fine.”
Symptoms often include:
Feeling tired but wired
Mentally “on” all the time
Difficulty relaxing or sleeping
Constantly replaying conversations or “what if” scenarios. This exhaustion isn’t a personal failure—it’s how your nervous system responds to chronic mental stress.
