Well Aaaaaaaarrgh…

grrrrrrrr, raaaaaa, blaaaaaaaaaaah.

Anyone else really fed up with being fed up?! I am. I keep winging at myself, having pointless debates with myself which isn’t getting me anywhere with anything. Why is it so hard to stop thinking. Am so frustrated with being frustrated and wanting to be positive and then talking myself out of it. See? I can’t shut up!

Just keep doing what your doing. You should feel better after venting.

When you love someone etc… and you spend all your time getting good advice from other people but at the end of the day you talk yourself out of doing anything and end up debating with yourself. Can’t stop thinking constantly and it’s been about 3 months this has been going on. Everyone’s bored about hearing the same thing and i’m bored myself with it now. I want to let it all out but i can’t. I just myself to shut up!!

Well when you realise you’re starting about it again then just tell yourself not to, if you really don’t like it. You give the impression that your mind is for the most part occupied with your problem (i mean, worrying about it all day) so maybe you won’t say much when you stop talking about it, but.. well, just try to accept that and wait until other people ask you about it.

It sounds kinda radical and if you don’t like the solution you might as well go on just saying everything on your mind to the people around you, both ways aren’t perfect but yah. well.

maybe if you look at the big picture you will realise unless, of course somthing major has happened to you recently, that life is to short and to easily taken away to be frustrated and angry all the time. i get frustrated and angry too with good cause but normally if i get stressed and its the right time of the day i’ll put my feet up put on some tunes and kick back with afew mates( beers to obviously) and forget what was rubbing me up the wrong way to start with, therfore
beers+tunes+comfy chair/seat/lounge+mates=goods times.
good luck mate

I think u r just having a hard time now, u r frustrated but i am sure its not anything serious, u should vent ur anger out. that will make you feel a lot better and also get you out of this frustration.

I have the same problem. I have these internal dialogues every single day…sometimes I feel exhausted, simply because I’ve been thinking too much!! When I get to that point, I meditate. I spend at least 10 minutes of every day trying not to think about ANYTHING. Every time my mind starts to wander, I try to refocus my attention onto NOTHING. It takes a lot of work at first–don’t expect a miracle the first time around–but after just a few weeks of doing this, I’ve noticed that it’s easier to realize when my thoughts are getting the best of me, and how to end them.

I used to think like that and it made me become spermicidal. So I’ll advise you to get an occupation. Make sure it is something you want and really enjoy. It’s working for me so far.

I can relate. Especially when my mind is racing and going every which way in frustration. To relax my mind, I either Read… or Take a nap, which is really hard to do when you I’m upset, I have 30 minutes of me time. Drink tea. or what works the most… take out a notebook and a pencil and write. ANYTHING. Poems. Or try to figure things out. Or doodle. Or just anything. Its just relieving. If you wanted to try them. Just food for thought. :)

thanks you guys i’ve managed to overcome it now after 9 long months. I guess really what worked in the end was not seeing the person i was thinking about and giving it time (which isn’t easy). Really time does sort things out.

Yeh. I’ve found that while I know myself, and while all advice I’ve had is to do nothing and just let it be for a while, it’s the hardest thing in the world to do. Especially when your mind is constantly racing, and you can’t stop thinking about… welll… everything!
