So I keep getting the same recurring thought about something that happened in my past. It wasn't really scaring.. But I guess you can say life changing. I have dreams about it all the time & the people that were there. So Is it normal that I get that thought a LOT?
- not abnormal, and if you ever need to talk about it, please feel free to contact me. Take care.
I have also had to go to the hospital for attempted suicide and depression. Later, when I overcame the numbness and really realized what happened, I was traumatized. I was so upset that I also traumatized my loved ones. It will get better though. That happened to me 6 years ago, and I never even think about it anymore. If I ever do, I'm surprised, actually. Because I don't feel like it was me who did that. And it wasn't, it was my past self. The same is true for you. Don't be ashamed either. I'm not, and in fact, all my friends know this about me and don't judge me on it. And I shouldn't be. Neither should you. Life is a very difficult process, and feeling overwhelmed is normal. I still deal with depression and other things like anxiety, and obsessive thoughts but I think I'm slowly starting to learn that this is just the result of being a very sensitive and perhaps passionate person.
Anyways, you are not alone and you are definitely not abnor
Try paying attention to the things that you do right before you start thinking of the past. There are key triggers that you may allow you to recognize a pattern. Thinking of the past is neither good nor bad. It's set in stone and can NOT be changed. Please dont lose the present and future. As with the old saying. Too much of anything is a bad thing. Good luck
What exactly happened, and how was it life changing? You don't have to talk about it if u don't want. But I'm just curious.
