psychological warfare
in my minds eye i find many things that the evil creature toss's at me. from bad memoryst to bad trains of thought it really really puts me down and makes me want to hit something.
in fact sometimes i end up generating enough anger that makes me want to hit something and yet i choose not to and i have to convert it to energy or else it will grow larger.
so everytime i look through my minds eye i try to fend off all these things in my head while the voice of condemnation bothers me to no end. it puts me down and kills every good idea i think up of becuase maybe it might just seem so obvious and stupid to everyone else.
now that i think of it does anyone else have to go through this kind of psychological warfare? what do you see through your minds eye? how exactly do you try to keep fighting off this evil in your head?
i have the same problem. it helps me to focus on something else. after much practice i found paying attention to my breathing (in, out, in, out) helped take my mind off the negativity. this may be called "mindfulness" or "being mindful". sort of like putting my mind in neutral/back to start. i tried meditation a little but could not bring myself to turn off the tv. it probably would be quite beneficial, if you were more successful than me.
