confusing steam of thoughts and difficult in processing information


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hi there

 

Anyone is experiencing confusing steam of thoughts?

 

Like sometimes I am thinking in something and lots of intrusives come and dont let my steam of thoughts being normal

 

Sometimes I am thinking and it happens and I have a fear reaction to this and I feel tension increasing in my neck and head, like a shock.

 

Processing information is so slow. For example things that are not real, lies and complex things.

 

This create me more intrusives such as

'I dont understand the world!'

'fear of dont understand something'

 

but I know the answer is dont care about it.

 

Anyone is experiencing this?

 

I consider this my worst symptom. I can function, but my head is too slow, and I dont feel myself.

Absolutely. I'm trying to ease myself back into reading and watching movies but it's not easy. At the best of times, my brain is a constant mess of noise, which causes much confusion, and - if I let it - causes panic. When I try adding processing information from a book or a movie that is slightly complex, it's like my brain is searching for the meaning but just can't find it, becoming busier, faster and more frantic as it searches. And panic ensues.

 

I just notice all the noise and breathe deep. Say "thinking" out loud and refocus on my surroundings.  :thumbsup:

Very. Slowly. It's unnoticeable really. One day, you'll just look back over a few months and realize it let up a little. This will happen every few months.
