Separating your thoughts from reality?
Currently being tortured by unhealthy thought cycles and my mind has honestly become a prison. I don’t know what the heck to do. No one seems to understand. It’s affecting my life. It can be really difficult to focus at work, it’s affecting my relationships, and I am coming to the point where it can be hard to tell what is right and wrong with these thoughts. I always had the idea that I was my thoughts, but then I started having these obsessive thoughts recently about something and I don’t want to have them so much. I’m so confused. Anyone else ever dealt with this?
@brightBirch99 Welcome to 7Cups and thank you for being here with us, bright. I am sorry to hear you experiencing challenging thought cycles that feel like they are controlling your life. I understand it is causing difficulties in various areas, including work and relationships. Feeling unsure about what's right and wrong is stressful. If I can ask, what aspects of these thoughts feel most burdensome to you?
The frequency and the fact that they can never happen.
