I wanna talk about an intrusive thought

It’s been bothering me for weeks, maybe someone have had similar thought? It goes like this:

My mind latches attention to the last word in meaning/sentences and it becomes a burden, it’s intrusive, annoying, and constant, it’s anxiety inducing and it’s worst in social situations, I’ve had intrusive thoughts for as long as I can remember since a child growing up.

Help please.

🥺

I'm sorry you are struggling.

It can be so draining.

Confusing.

Scary.

What works for me is listening to music, drowning out all the commotion and outside noise and daily writing down the intrusive thoughts, to get them out, let them lose their intensity and power, and then burning the page 💕💜
