I can never be alone with my thoughts

I really struggle with being alone with my thoughts. I constantly feel like I need to be sharing them with others.

Problem is you can't unshare your thoughts.

thats a normal feeling to have, I really dont think we are meant to keep our thoughts to ourselves. however, other options include journaling or posting on here!

That sounds stressful, I can see how this is a challenging situation. I also think it’s very normal. We just want to be heard and understood and have the opportunity to process what’s on our minds. I’m curious, how does the intensity of your thoughts influence the urge to share?

Every time I have a thought I feel like I need to text someone about it. Having depression and going through a breakup at the same time is devastating to my mind. I feel like I have no one and can’t be alone with my own thoughts. Some days the thought of my suicide attempt a few weeks ago still cross my mind.

I see, it sounds like you’re craving human connection ❤️

Bring them coming we are here to hear them and as time goes you will find those who can relate and it will be easy for you to share them intimately but in the meantime, just share them. That is why we are here.
