Your Definition
To be transfixed on a relatively [insignificant] thought or event and unhealthily or unnecessarily dwelling on it attaching a more elaborate meaning and emotion to it. The trigger often seems trivial to others but to the person who is "spinning" it becomes connected to their personal prevailing emotions, past experiences, and/or unresolved trauma/pathology. May include but not exclusive to: 1. imagining/playing out elaborate future scenarios, radical actions, and/or conversations; 2. [questioning] any past or present experiences, activities, and/or [relationships]; Possible origins: Like how a textile worker can get a seemingly small piece or bundle of fiber and "spin" it into a long thread by combining it with others. Or how a spider can "spin" an elaborate web by connecting many threads together.
