How to stop repetitive thoughts

[LatinasAreTheFuture]

I get negative repetitive thoughts and I would like it to stop thank you

Do not think about them.

Pain helps. So does alcohol. I also found some forms of meditation helpful

 

[Spiny Rumples]

Mindfulness meditation is popular these days because it trains people to be able to focus on something and/or stop focusing on something.
Also being rested, safe, comfortable, having food/water etc. helps

Head-desk each time you have the thought. - works but is painful
Doing something that requires concentration. - bog standard displacement activity. Works well.
Meditation. - takes some learning. Works well.
Fix the damned problem so you no longer have negative thoughts about whatever it is. - best option. Not always practicable.

Let me think about it. Let me think about. I'm gonna think on this for a bit and then write a response. So gimme a minute and let me think about it.

I know I can fix this problem if I just think about it some more. I've had my whole life to fucking think about it, but I know that despite the last 30 years of not coming up with an answer, that without a doubt I will in 5 minutes if I can just think about it a bit longer.

You need to touch and be touched to form oxytocin. Or just get high as balls all the time and fry out your brain so it's not so sensitive to all those useless neurochems.

 

[MediocreMilt]

...and you've tried sticking things in your butt, right?

I think I saw an article that says that works, makes you more attentive to your partner, etc.

 

[Obscenity Enthusiast]

Drinking bleach is a proven effective way to fix whatever problems you might be grappling with.

 

[EpicGamerMoment]

Occupy yourself with productive things or hobbies.

 

[Mesh Gear Fox]

Do enough drugs to turn your brain to ash and you won't have to worry about thoughts anymore

 

[Octo Mullet]

It's called alcohol.

 

[Vingle]

A gunshot to the head.

if drugs don't work a lobotomy will remove those pesky thoughts
