"How much do you overthink everything?"
Twenty-five questions about the loop you are currently in. Your drafts, your 3am reruns, and the arguments you win alone in the shower are all admissible.
Your answers never leave your browser. Only the result gets counted, so I can laugh at you weirdos in aggregate, never individually.
The Overthinker Index measures how much of your day is spent running the loop instead of living in it. Across five categories, your text message forensics, your instant replays, your decision paralysis, your threat detection, and your future simulations, it counts the thinking you do that never once changed an outcome.
There are no wrong answers, only evidence. Some people come out Suspiciously Untroubled, which mostly means their brain closes at night like a normal appliance. Most land around Certified Overthinker, where the loop runs quiet enough to work through and never actually stops. A committed few reach Brain Never Closes, where nothing is a single event and everything is a case file. So how much do you overthink everything? Twenty-five questions stand between you and a number out of 100, plus the tier you already suspected.

If it ruined your afternoon, that was the point.
The Overthinker Index measures how much you overthink everything, from Suspiciously Untroubled to Brain Never Closes. It counts the thinking you do after the moment has already passed, not the thinking that solves anything.
Everyone believes their overthinking is just being thorough until it gets scored. This reads your drafts, your replays, your decision paralysis, and the arguments you rehearse in the shower, then hands back the number.
Your loop is counted across five categories:
Each answer moves your score across five categories, from your drafts to your simulations. They average into one number from 0 to 100 with a matching tier. A low score usually means the loop is running somewhere you have not looked yet.
This is for anyone who has reread a two sentence text more than twice, and for the friend who keeps being told to just let it go. Take it before you decide the loop was productive.
