Editorial Review:

Product Description:
It's not a surprise that our fast-paced, overly analytical culture is pushing people-especially women-to spend countless hours thinking about negative ideas, feelings, and experiences. Renowned psychologist Dr. Susan Nolen-Hoeksema calls this 'overthinking.' Her ground-breaking research shows that an increasing number of women-more than half of those in her extensive study-are doing it too much and too often, hindering their ability to lead a satisfying life. Overthinking can be anything from fretting about big questions such as 'What am I doing with my life?' to losing sleep over a friend's innocent comment. It is causing women to feel sad, anxious, or seriously depressed, and she challenges the assumption that constantly expressing and analyzing our emotions is a good thing. In Women Who Think Too Much, Nolen-Hoeksema provides concrete strategies that can be used to escape these negative thoughts, move to higher ground, and avoid future traps.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - a big help
i have been an overthinker since before i can remember. i tend to make situations worse by thinking about them too much and concentrating on the negative possibilities to the point that i feel that these negative things have actually happened. it's a really destructive habit to have.

this book really helped me see that i was not alone and gave suggestions for actual steps to take to stop overthinking. for example, using positive distractions like taking a walk whenever overthinking ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Helpful techniques for overcoming "Overthinking"
I received this book as a gift and found it to be useful. I have to admit that I'm an "overthinker" - I can tell when my mind is getting carried away and getting me too upset over something trivial, but sometimes it's hard to turn that off and get back to whatever I need to be doing.

This book starts with explaining what "overthinking" is and why (and when) it can be a bad thing. Then the author has several chapters on techniques that you can use to overcome overthinking. I will definitely ... Read More



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Poor. Repetitious anecdotes that go nowhere
If you are prone to ruminate and worry, you probably think this book sounds like some kind of Godsend. I mean, the title hit it on the head, right? Sounds like it describes you to a t? Unfortunately, the book doesn't deliver. It's just one lengthy anecdote after another of various women who think too much, with overly simplistic solutions on how they can/should stop. I rarely give a book one star, but this book is especially noxious because it sometimes takes on a lecturing, unsympathetic tone, which should ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - This book is very good for people who think too much
If you have problems with anxiety, self-esteem, and overthinking then, this book is really for you. It will help you preserve important decision-making skills. It will also help you heal from many psychological problems. This book will allow you to develop healthier thinking in general. This is a very good self-help book. I really liked this book.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Women Who Think Too Much
This book was very disappointing. Every chapter seems to constantly review the negative people and situations that "women constantly think of" giving examples. On and on with all the negativity, it was depressing. The advice given was what any friend could tell you. There is no new advice, just seems to be a review of everyone's problems and to "do something else", so you don't think about it. I was bored and disappointed, the worst book I've read in a long time. Made me think too much about what a waste ... Read More
