Random Thoughts...or...What's on Your Mind?

[Butters]

I’m starting to think that I might have an abscess in my gum.

I’m gonna have to go the dentist.

 

[Velocity]

Good luck! I hope the dentist fixes you up quickly and painlessly.

I have an important meeting tomorrow and my mind keeps reminding me of that so I can't enjoy my Sunday, as well as I'd like.

What you need, is booze.

I don't drink.

I wonder about the first people to look at something like snails and think "Yum! I gotta try that!)

I'm telling you, 2 dudes daring each other to do dumb stuff is a tradition that's been going on for millennia. Same with whoever was the first person to drink from a cow, no doubt.

People who starve will eat anything.

As for milking, it predates humanity. There are ants that raise aphids (IE small sucking insects) to get sweet secretions from them. That likely started millions of years before hominids even existed!!

I'm trying to keep myself occupied this week so I don't have to pay attention to the thoughts that make me depressed. It usually helps.

It would be better to solve whatever makes you have depressing thoughts.

Distraction is a viable and accepted practice in DBT, but it's not to be used in excess. I tend to rely on distraction, myself. It helps, but should not be turned into a crutch as I have done. It used to be my default response on those little daily worksheets.

Indeed, the first words ever spoken by Man were, and I quote, “Hold my beer”.

I am in therapy for extended help. I prefer not to think about it often because I spent a whole year with that line of thinking (majority of late 2017-18) and I'm getting out of now through my own strength and outside help. I can tell you I've felt better then I did a year ago.

I will say that distraction has been the most helpful thing in my life because I am able to face my thoughts briefly and acknowledge them so I can move on throughout my day since my therapist and doctor recommended it. I appreciate the help but part of my issue is too many ideas and suggestions starts the cycle. Sorry if that's a little too deep.

Makes perfect sense to me.

Thanks for understanding.

I’m thinking about going out to get some wine.

It’s a bit awesome that we can rewind live tv on a whim.

My little shih-tsu, Gus, just ripped an incredibly nasty fart. What could he have eaten that could ever get to smell that bad?!

 

[Sibyl]

"Trendy" is one of my least favorite words.
