How to use "Overstrung" in context?
When describing someone who is overstrung, most people would likely use one of two adjectives: overexcited or stressed. Overexcited people are usually characterized as being overly enthusiastic or excited about something, which can be frustrating for those around them. For example, if someone is constantly buzzing with energy and never seems to calm down, it can be irritating for those around them. Additionally, overexertion and stress often lead to physical symptoms, such as headache, pressure in the chest, or insomnia. This can make it difficult for people to function at their best and can even lead to psychiatric conditions in some cases.
