You leave with
The moment, seen from outside
What happened, read back plainly.

Write it down as it's replaying.
In short
Overthinking is a free, 3-minute guided inquiry for a conversation, message or reaction that keeps replaying. You describe one real moment. It reads the moment back from the outside, names the shape the replay keeps taking, asks one follow-up, and ends with a question to carry into the next time it starts. It does not give advice. It draws on research separating insight from rumination.
