The last few months I've done well. I'm learning to recognize my problems and redirect myself. I've even tried to let my husband drive lol. If only i could shut my mind up. Tonigts a bad night for inner me. She's obsessing about the usual, only i cant seem to tune her out tonight. Right now I'm thinking about my social life. I think sometimes social networking will do me in. I have plenty of "friends", or people with whom I've spent time but never really connected. I see them post to mutual friends about get togethers and such and i cant help but feel sad and a little bit jealous. Why cant i connect with people? Why cant i fit in? Why do i let these things bother me? Why do i check Facebook every 30 minutes when i know i will feel bad? These feelings typically lurk at the back of my mind, but occasionally make their way forward. As if i don't have enough to irrationally worry about. I'm hoping writing it all out will help. Often i write blogs here and delete them. For some reason reading it back to myself helps me realize how stupid i sound and i get over it for the time being. I would like to worry less about what people think of me, and i don't want to obsess about every social interaction before, and after the fact. Is this to much to ask? I think no. But, i think alot of crazy things so i probably shouldn't trust that annoying inner me.

Hi ! I understand what your saying. I'm always telling my mind to stop it or shut-up. I would love more than anything to take a vacation from my mind. I think writting is good. Coffeedad gives good advice. I have also started to try to read more lite paperback books. Reading for awhile helps , somtimes . Hang in there. You are so not alone w/ this.

Sounds like you need some mental exercises to keep your mind busy, like.... counting!  No, I would not recommend that.   My only bit of advice to you woudl be to not delete your blogs when you're writing here, no one is going to mock you.  They generally save that for my blogs, you should be safe.  it's a great group of folks here so write away!  :)  short of that, I have no useful information to provide, so I'll end on that note.
