Overthinking

What if people don't like this poem? Is it that bad? What if it hurts someone?

I bet you the biggest flaw in me till date is
That I always tend to over think
My brain starts throwing vague ideas
Quicker than an eye's blink

I'll be happy a moment
And everything seems good
And then my mind says, "Oh , maybe it is a lie"
And that's all it takes to ruin my mood

Overthinking isn't very nice
It emotionally drains one
It comes with so much anxiety
It just takes away life's fun

One day I was with my friends
And I thought they were helping me grow
But suddenly my mind decides to intervene
It asks , but what if they just use and throw?

I'll make up situations in my head
The ones which never even happen for sure
I've started to take one day at a time
But my illness has no cure

One day when I was carrying a fragile box
A voice popped up, " What if I slip and fly?
And I started to fret all over and sweat.
While walking on a floor completely dry


Overthinking ruins relationship
And sometime I end up being blue
It makes be doubt and question everything
And that's why I've trust issues

And when you're nagging me stop
And stop being so freaky
I question myself, "How can you be so normal?"
Because that's overthinking to me.

It is really really relatable! Everyone have these kinda thoughts in their minds somewhere. And, I think you wrote "want" instead of "what" in the use and throw line. By the way, a brilliant piece of poetry!
