I am often overthinking things aswell - I recommend trying to focus on what is happening right now. Start counting the things on your desk or concentrate on steady breathing, this often helps

Fill your time with things that make you happy and forget the negative. If you sit still for to long that's when the mind gets you

You cant.....with that in mind. Obsess over something positive. You will become addicted to it the same way you do to negative thoughts. Just be positive and happy about your artwork. You are good and getting better everyday.

I overthink all the time, and I notice no negative side effects from it other than not being able to fall asleep easily. Quite on the contrary, I'd say the net effect is overwhelmingly positive.

Your problem seems to be a lack of focus and its resulting compulsion. If you want to practice focus you can just try to pay attention to your breath and increase the duration of that exercise over time, or practice calculations or other short-term memory tasks in your head.

It is hard not to overthink. For me I always think that when you are focusing on the bad side it is not helpful you must always focus on the good thing. Every problem has solution.

To stop overthinking have something that will take your mind away from thinking. If you don't have a job then get a job, Have people that you can talk to, When you are alone keep your self busy with your cell phone or book. Just get busy.

Always do self introspection.
Aware of his condition, aware of his faith conditions, his faith encouraged him to intropection himself, which then made him regret the wrongdoing.

Brotherhood is connecting affection. If we are diligent to stay in touch will create a sense of familiarity, mutual understanding, good communication will dispel suspicion or prejudice, and will also arise synergy to give knowledge, insight, and even often established cooperation.

Over-thinking can be stopped through avoidance of loneliness, depression and living in a state of contentment.
