If You Overthink Everything, Your Brain Has This Evolutionary Advantage

🧠 WHY YOUR BRAIN OVERTHINKS (THE EVOLUTIONARY TRUTH):

Most people think overthinking is a mental disorder. Science reveals it's actually a survival advantage that's been misunderstood. Thousands of years ago, the humans who overthought every scenario, replayed every interaction, and predicted every possible danger were the ones who survived. That hypervigilant, pattern-seeking, threat-detecting brain is the one you inherited.

In this video, you'll uncover:
Why your ancestors survived because they overthought everything (evolutionary psychology)
What happens in your brain when you replay conversations at 2 AM (threat detection)
Why "better to be wrong than dead" is coded into your neural pathways (survival mechanism)
The three types of overthinking your brain uses to protect you (pattern matching explained)
Why modern threats (texts on read, awkward conversations) trigger ancient survival responses
How to work WITH your overthinking brain instead of fighting it (practical solutions)
Why overthinkers see dangers that optimists completely miss (predictive advantage)
The hidden gifts of a mind that won't stop analyzing the world around you
