This is a long term issue for me. Mind noise.
I’m sure it has lots of different names but it doesnt matter what I do, I cannot switch off. It takes me hours to fall asleep every single night just because my brain talks rubbish.
I know a lot of people will lie there and think of or over think scenarios that have happened, might happen or could have gone differently but I just seem to have conversations with myself. Am I crazy?
I have tried so many times to meditate but my mind wanders and I wind up back where I started.
I honestly don’t know what else to try without medicating myself to just sleep.
It’s not just when I sleep though, it’s constant, its just an issue when I sleep.
I also only recently learnt that not everyone has an internal dialogue. I genuinely thought everyone has a little voice (not that I know what it sounds like) but that means some people actually have silence? I mean is it literally just silence? What do your thoughts sound like?
I have no idea where this post came from, it was an idea and I immediately had to type something, so I do realise this post probably does make me sound crazy.
