How to silent the constant negative internal chatter ?
So in the past 6 odd months my anger has been rising pretty rapidly. I don't show it / express it to people around me but , inside my head this constant negative chatter just keeps on playing. Whenever I meet people I only notice all the bad things about them and my mind constantly finds faults in them. I seem to have bottled so many emotions inside my head . Hence I wanted to know how do I counter this problem ??
One of the ways I realize is meditating and maintaning a diary / journal . If you guys have any other ways then do let me know . I would also appreciate if any listener is willing to chat with me regarding this topic.
Thanks !!

Hey!! I realize this is super late reply but I wanted to let you know it is really a big deal you figured you are feeling kind of negative about things. And yes, journal keeping sonds like a great idea!
Have you heard of gratitude diary? Do you think writing few things you are thankful for everyday might be helpful?
Also, would love to hear how you are doing now. I hope you have a great day ahead.

Hello there river . Have definately heard of a gratitude journal . But haven't yet made a habit of writing it . May be I could do that .
As far as my current state is concerned , I haven't really made much progress . I am taking meds and they are slightly helping me . But the majority of thoughts that my mind generates on a daily basis are negative and filled with anxiety .
Thank you so much for replying my post . :).

Hey!! I am glad meds are kind of helping, feeling slightly good is better than no progress. Feeling better and positive thinking really isnt that easy task, so I kinda relate. Good luck with it. And it was really nice hearing back from you. Have a great day ahead.

Thanks . Wishing you the same .
