Hello, you need to try cognitive behavioral therapy. That will definitely help you at this stage and will also prevent such future crisis so you will be able to respond better to stressful situations.

Dear lybrate-user, it is not possible to prescribe medication on casual consultation. You need to be diagnosed why you are overthinking. It might be due to stress or anxiety or depressive disorder or some serious disorders like bipolar or schizophrenia or due to some hormonal or neurological disorders. Each one of these diagnosis had different type of treatment. Treatment does not mean only medicines. It may also need therapy, social and occupational adjustments. Please consult a psychiatrist nearby and start appropriate treatment. The earlier you consult, the better will be your future quality of life.

Dear Lybrate user, it must be hard going through these tough times. I would suggest that instead of medications you go for psychological counseling/therapy. Therapy will help you vent and deal with your concerns with certain strategies, skills and techniques. Therapy can empower you with life skills, help you cope and make you self- reliant. It'll also help you in the long term, and the skills you learn in therapy will help you deal with future stressful situations. It's important to face these situations and cope with them and do problem solving if possible. Therapy can help you very well with that. Especially cognitive behaviour therapy can help you with overthinking and other life skills such as decision making, problem solving, coping etc. Please consult a psychologist. Getting the right help will aid you in getting over these stressful situations and also teach you important life skills. All the best! remember, this too will pass, things do change for the better and therapy can help you get there. If you need help you can contact me as well. Regards, aaradhana reddy counselling psychologist.
