Thinking to much?!
Question: Has anyone experience constant thinking where stuff is just rolling around and around in your mind, I seem to be analising everything and just cannot slow it down or stop it. I am also having trouble sleeping due to the excessive thinking.
Any advice to sort out this problem?

I experienced the same thing before but when I took action and did something about the things I was thinking about, my mind stopped thinking about them so much.
i suffer the same issue.... and am sorry to say this... there is no way out of it.... people like us will never get a break from life...
read a book or something

you mean thinking "too" much?
yeah
depends on what u thinking whya?
This would be my life story. I basically stress over every little detail that life has in store for me. It can be frustrating at times, honestly.. I'm an insomniac, the only way I get good sleep is by medicating myself with Tylenol pm's. :]
this happened to my husband for about a week before he had a breakdown, go to the doctor because he said that it is the tiredness that eventually made his brain shut down in the end, then they gave him some antidepressents and he is better now

I get that a lot, exercise is good and a nice hot shower or bath to help you relax before sleeping. Reading is also good to take your mind of things, and also helps you sleep.
Racing thgts is the first sign of anxiety
Yes my friend, I have same thing, and many other people suffer from this reason. Even we have no own problems we worry about something absolute absurd and cannot sleep.
The answer to this is at you doctor office.
He could desribe " Lorazepan" and sleep pill Ambien.
Lorazepan works very well, on me for years, Other wise I woud analising univers, history, sienc to no end of the world.
the way i described it to my therapist was like tv adverts. just a constant and unending cycle of images and brief flashes that made anything else impossible. it was literally driving me to distraction and i was loosing my every day abilities. my job that i adored, reading, art my poetry. even recognizing people. with out going into details i've had a poop time in the past (even though im a happy bunny and love life and you'd never know it to meet me) but in the end there is only so long you can surpress things.
my dr sent me to a cpn and he sent me to my therapist. and she has been the saving of me.
1st i was able to tell her everything. she did not bat an eye. then i was able to start unravelling all the tangled jumbled knots and instead of tv adds they became the whole show that i could see, sort out and bit by bit it was like they just disolved. no more slithering, jumbling and twisting.
dont get me wrong, this has taken a year of weekly and fortnightly sessions and me working on myself and i still have a long way to go but the difference is freeing. i can read again. (i dont watch tv cos it numbs me) i can sit peacefully and not feel im going to scream. my dreams are still horrific but i have nights of bliss.
see your Dr. take it from there. im sorry this was so long but having been there, i hate the thought of others suffering the same and unless you've experienced it people dismiss you. if they cant see a problem they think you are scaming.
good luck

unfortunatly i to have this problem and i totally sympathise with you and everyone else who cant sleep because of their overactive mind. Ive tried CBT and one on one psycology to try and sort through my thoughts but alas to no avail. Im afraid its one of those things. Meds can help you become less anxious but in my case they never go away, just become less of an issue as i get used to them. Sorry man hope everything works out for you though. xxxxxx
What your describing sounds like what I call racing thoughts and I experience this all the time I know how annoying and frustrating this can be. I have found that when my head starts racing I get a pen and paper and right down every single thing that comes into my head even if I keep repeating myself. When I am finished writing I either keep the page and put it away but I don't read it as I have just got it all out my head and I want to keep it that way or most times I wrip it up into pieces or just through it away. Do whatever feels right for you. Try and calm yourself down take deep breaths and read up on some relaxtion techniques and try them all till one works for you there will be something out there for you. As with the sleeping I can reccommend Kalms sleep, they are a natural herbal remedy so don't worry about getting addicted I don't like taking loads of pills but these are natural remedies you take 4 at night and there is also Kalms for during the day which is the white pills you take two of them when you feel stressed out and anxious. good luck hope some of this helps
