In this episode of 'This is Fine: A Millennial Diary,' I dive into the root causes of overthinking for millennials. Reflecting on growing up amidst the chaos of dial-up internet, parental stress, and constant technological updates, I explain how these experiences led to a generation of overthinkers. From scrutinizing texts and emails to turning achievements into personality traits, millennials are caught in a cycle of relentless self-assessment.

I share personal strategies for managing this overthinking, reminding us that it's an adaptation to a chaotic world. Next week, the journey continues as we explore how overthinking is affecting our ability to just be.
