I really need help

You can tell your problem if you want? And maybe we can help you a little

I have a similar issue which occurs multiple times per hour (daily). Perhaps, a mindfulness practice? That helps me cope…

I feel like we rumminate to prove to ourselves that we aren’t our thoughts, which leads us getting addicted to it. I feel like maybe to combat it is to try and challenge yourself to do the opposite. Like if you have an intrusive thought, don’t try to disprove it or anything, it will make you pretty anxious but if you power through it over and over then it could lessen both rummination and the thoughts.

I’ve been having a similar issue where I just find myself ruminating over and over and it’s exhausting but so far I’ve told myself—ok I can’t really stop myself from *beginning* to ruminate cuz I can’t really catch it when it starts. But when I realize im doing it, take a little break, either zone out or switch my thinking for just like ten seconds to get myself out of that ruminating hole. The more often I can catch myself to do that the more often those rumination cycles get broken, even for just a little bit at a time
