Thoughts keep on spinning spinning spinning. Into the future. And I can't stop them. Or can I? Do you have problems with intrusive or repetitive thoughts. Thoughts that you seem to have no control over? I can deal with those intrusive thoughts during the day. But I have problems with them at night. As a matter of fact, I've had problems with them most nights this week.
At night that is when my thoughts spin into the future. It's a complex algebra calculation of what if then, in the middle of the night. It's part of wanting to control everything to feel secure. Most of which I have no control over.
I have yet to figure out how to turn my brain off at night - but I think if I give up the idea of being in control then I think my repetitive thoughts at night will improve as will many other aspects of my life.
Old thought: I must control - everything
New thought: I can only control - myself
