Ever find yourself stuck in a mental loop, going over the same thoughts again and again?

What if I…

It’s exhausting, isn’t it?

These are just some of the negative thoughts people become obsessed with over time. It might seem like overthinking, but it’s actually rumination - running a thought over and over again in your mind.
