Tips to overcome work-related overthinking?

I’ve been more and more stressed out about work during weekends; I tend to think a lot about the things I couldn’t finish this week and how to tackle them in the upcoming week. I’ve been getting obsessed to the point I really don’t enjoy weekends and I can’t relax.

It would be unfair to blame external pressures, it is just me overthinking.

What are your strategies to avoid this?

    When I started working (software developer) I thought I was like that, but at one point I saw that everyone is on an ejection seat, everyone can be fired or replaced in a company even if you think you are irreplaceable and here for 25 years.

    So at one point in my life I started to switch my work brain at off at 5PM. No work emails/teams on my cellphone too. I started to don’t care and don’t give a shit.
