"Overthinking" is a poignant illustration that captures the overwhelming nature of our inner thoughts. The piece features a person lying on a bed, with streams of fluid or water pouring out of their head, illuminating their surroundings. The fluid represents the individual's thoughts, which seem to be consuming them entirely, resulting in a sense of disorder and chaos. The illustration serves as a powerful visual representation of the negative impact that overthinking can have on a person's mental state.
