Being 'in your head' means your thoughts are racing in unproductive circles — overanalyzing, second-guessing, or catastrophizing. It describes the mental state where you can't stop thinking about something, often to your own detriment. Athletes describe it as a performance killer: 'I was too in my head to play well.'

'In your head'意味着你的思绪在不断兜圈子——过度分析、反复犹豫、或者把事情往最坏的方向想。它描述的是那种你无法停止想某件事的心理状态，而这往往对自己有害。运动员把它形容为表现的杀手：'I was too in my head to play well'（我想太多了所以没打好）。

Estar 'in your head' significa que tus pensamientos dan vueltas en círculos improductivos — sobreanalizando, dudando de ti mismo o imaginándote lo peor.

Los deportistas lo describen como un asesino del rendimiento: 'I was too in my head to play well.'

「in your head」は、思考が非生産的に堂々巡りしている状態 — 分析しすぎ、迷いすぎ、最悪の想像をしすぎること。何かについて考えるのを止められず、それが自分自身に悪影響を及ぼしている精神状態を表す。アスリートはこれをパフォーマンスキラーと表現する：「考えすぎてうまくプレーできなかった」。

'In your head'에 있다는 것은 생각이 비생산적으로 맴도는 것을 의미한다 — 과잉 분석하고, 다시 의심하고, 최악의 상황을 상상하는 것. 무언가에 대해 생각을 멈출 수 없는 정신 상태를 묘사하며, 종종 자기 자신에게 해가 된다. 운동선수들은 이것을 퍼포먼스를 망치는 것으로 묘사한다: 'I was too in my head to play well(너무 생각이 많아서 잘 못 뛰었다).'
