Racing mind

My mind is all over the place. It’s racing and bouncing off the walls. I have mixed emotions and thoughts. I don’t know what to do or how to calm my mind.

Guided meditation.

No caffeine. Reduced sugar.

Reduce screen time especially before rest.

Gentle exercise. Walk, swim, yoga.

A quiet hobby.

My daughter takes all the pictures off her walls. She doesn’t watch tv or listen to the radio when it gets bad. Quiet your surroundings; quiet your mind.

Best of luck to you.

Hey, I’m feeling like that now. I’m at work trying to make conversations with new people, I honestly feel as though I’m craving something

My daughter talks of cravings as well. Like her mind is reaching here and there for some unknown thing. It’s neurotransmitters. Stray brain chemicals making you feel this way. That’s why she self soothes and calms.

That’s a good way to explain it. It is like a craving of something that I need.
