One thing after the other keeps happening or possibiity of happening.
Don't have any peaceful moments to practice techniques to stop worrying so much. My pills help but dont take the negative thoughts away.

Hello Barbara: what I do when I need all that negative thinking to stop is to actually yell in my head STOP! or NO!, forcus on something postive. Allowing me to do what I need to do. It is working for me, maybe it would work for you.

I stay busy this makes for not much time for me to be anxious/worry. Of course I like sleeping this is not good, but when I feel overwhelmed at the end of the day I go to sleep and start again tomorrow.

Pattern changing thought. For every negative pattern, add a positive image, word, phrase and keep practicing this.

It does help with the usual normal daily living activities schedule to switch up something (forces you to think about what you're doing, in the moment).

Best wishes.

Sleeping is fine. They have recentlly found out your brain gets washed clean of unwanted chemicals that might interfere with brain function during sleep. So sleep.

They say depressed people want to sleep 'too much'. Maybe depressed people need to sleep ENOUGH to heal themselves. Sleep if you need to. It's good for you.

    I did the dumbest thing today.  I charged my earbuds, unplugged the block and put the block in my little bag instead of the earbuds.  I wasn't happy about that when I got to the gym.  What a dummy!
