intrusive thoughts
lately i've been getting intrusive thoughts about my past and it makes me think i'll go back to my old ways but i know i wont because i've worked so hard to get where i am today
You are so brave and so strong! If you would like to talk more about your thoughts don’t hesitate to message me! I think you are doing an amazing job!
You’re brave and strong.. how do I know that ? You’re on here putting yourself out there and asking for help! :) kudos to you . I too suffer from this, I tend to be doing great, then all the sudden BOOM my negative intrusive thoughts come back, How I try to cope with this is : 1. Go to a mirror ( try not to use public mirrors, people will stare ) 2. Look yourself in the eyes. 3. Say “ I am the king or queen of this castle (your brain ) and I control what comes and goes. Repeat this til you mean it. ... SAY IT LIKE YOU MEAN IT, really pound it into your head. 3. Do something that distracts you from these thoughts. For example: chew gum, or take your left or right hand and open it, spread your fingers apart and touch each finger to your thumb. All the way from your pinky to your index finger ( if you can touch your thumb to your thumb you should be in a marvel movie ) . SERIOUSLY YOU GOT THIS :) I hope this helped and or brought a smile to your face. CHEERS
