Today I was going to start writing down my negative thoughts so I in the second step can turn them to positive more productive ones. So far so good.
I have negative real,not-scary thoughts such as "I feel fat today" But I also have scary thoughts that does not make any sense,irrational, troublesome thoughts, kneads that not lead anywhere such as "Is there an and of universe?", "Are there some supernatural power visiting and controlling my thoughts?", "What´s the meaning of life?" etc I often over-analyze them and ask myself if they can be true.
However, the more I focused on this practise, the more scary thoughts overwhelmed me, and I also created some new ones. My question to this practise, is it good to focus on thinking and finding negative thoughts? It got me more scared than before. Actually I had difficulties to do something meaningful at all today. Instead everything turned into a real mess. Probably that was the real problem, that I permitted myself not to do something productive at all. It must be so.
However, what are you others feel going through this practise? Is it easy for you, just to write down negative thoughts, without producing new ones? Please give me some tips to go through this better.
