Analysis as Avoidance: The Dark Side of Overthinking

Overthinking is a coping mechanism for the indecisive, a shield against the uncertainty of life. By analyzing a situation to death, we can temporarily avoid making decisions, thereby prolonging the inevitable. But beware, for in the depths of analysis, we may find ourselves lost in a sea of unnecessary complexity.

Case in point: My Aunt's Cat's Feline Psychosis, a study in the art of overthinking.
