Carl Jung On Overthinking: Why The Abyss of Reason Leaves You Emotionally Numb

Carl Jung warned that intellect alone can never make us whole. In this video essay, we explore the hidden cost of over-identifying with reason—how logic becomes a cage, emotional numbness becomes the norm, and thinking too much disconnects us from life. Drawing from Jungian psychology, mythic metaphors, and real-life pain points like INTP burnout and the Ti-Si loop, this video is a mirror for those who feel brilliant but unseen, emotionally distant but deeply longing for connection. You’ll journey through intellectual detachment, burnout, and existential drift—and discover what it takes to come back to yourself. This is for anyone who has ever felt like a ghost inside their own brilliance. If you've ever felt stuck in your mind and disconnected from your soul—this was made for you. 👇 If this resonated, please like, comment, and share it with someone who needs to hear this. 🔔 Subscribe for more Carl Jung-inspired essays on psychology, emotional healing, and the journey toward wholeness. #CarlJung #Overthinking #EmotionalNumbness #INTPBurnout #ShadowWork #ThinkersWhoFeel #Psychology #ExistentialHealing #FeelingVsThinking #JungianPsychology
