Oh! Just me and my noisy head!

Don't worry about your dreams. They are just images.

Some of those dreams by the way consists of reading. Is it normal? To read in dreams, by the way? While I was dreaming those kinds of dreams, I just follow along and read. First time, I wasn't so sure so I read word for word until I became engrossed in the story my dream tells me with words. I had known that my dreams sometimes tells me stories but it's just recently that I am told through books instead of moving pictures.

Did listen. And I got a temporary sense of peace. And I dreamed again with things I can't make sense at all.

Oh, I came to that situation before...once or twice but I always made sure to be locked up in my room. That was when I'm in a lot of stress where I don't know anymore where to begin and before the episode where the back of my neck bulged out. Back then, in order to keep those thoughts at bay, I often sing out loud. Right now, whenever I talk to myself, it's when I am asking things that only I know how to answer and just want to voice them out loud. It's normal I think if you will it. But if you're doing it without conscious thought, now that is something distressing.

I hope there's another way aside for drinking a foreign thing to silence the voices or thoughts--or whatever you call them--naturally. Sleep was the only way I can block them off but I dream a lot when I do. Heck, I dream every night and in every dream I am a different person with a history. The latest dream I had, had even its own background and personality not my own.It does not resemble my family history and my real memories. When I woke up, I still remembered the me in my dream and it took a split second for me to realize it and remember the real me. That was my first time and hope my last time experiencing that...

I have to agree that yes, sleep and rest really does help. Though, I have to focus on getting my head cleared up first before I can finally get sleep. I thought I am used to my thoughts. It was just recently that they're "louder" than normal. They used to work together whenever I am focused on my project that consists of designing images and/or programming. But because I am taking a break now, they don't have anything else to do aside for disagreeing.

Those crazy voices. LOL. I know what its like to have thoughts flying around my head. I am constantly thinking. I never seem to stop. Even when I am sleeping. I think the only time I stop really thinking is when I am sick. Then I am just concentrating on getting better.

That sound a lot like stress and depression to me. I totally understand how someone will constantly think if they feel they are going to die. I also believe that as we get older we start thinking more and more about the older days. I think thats normal. We all have to come to terms with our life at some point. Some of us do it sooner then later. But remember this, when it is our time, there is nothing we can do about it. It is going to happen no matter what we want or what we feel. So coming to terms with life now will be the best thing to do. What we did in our past is gone. What we do from this moment on is new and we can make the best of it.

I just threw myself on my bed and slept it off. But they'll be back later if I let my guard down. Is there any way to silence them aside for shutting down without breaking down in the process? I had to toss and turn before I really got some sleep and peace. But even in my sleep I dreamed.

Productive? Hell, I can't concentrate on anything! Try doing that when your mind is crowded, I'm sure you can't get one thing done without becoming frustrated...But bf you can, I salute you!

lolz. I just woke up. I had to sleep before I break down. Oh! The thoughts are quietened a bit now. At least they don't bother me as much as before. But they'll be back later, I have a feeling. Anyways, thanks for the congratulations! It was a feat just typing them down and creating this discussion. But that was my limit--I just had to hit the sack after that.

Like in meditating? I used to meditate--I had thought it had to do with stress and worries about my school--and I get to hone in on some of the thoughts and sometimes just not let them affect me. It was refreshing in some way... I may take up meditating again in the near future if this keeps on happening to me. You see, I notice that whenever I go to public places day by day, those thoughts worsen. I don't know yet why it's like that since I just noticed this recently. I rarely go out anymore since last year. If I just stay home, all is well with me. I read books everyday to spend my time--aside for working online and then some. But whenever I do go out to places like the mall, the hospital and wherever there's a lot of people, my mind goes noisy like I'm still in crowded areas. But maybe it had to do with caffeine, I don't know. But I am determined to find something to calm myself down for the moment. I am thinking along the lines of afternoon tea--and books--and paper and pen just in case either my writer/artist self comes out... I'm babbling again, darn!

You have presented it in a very beautiful way.I liked it.I have noticed the more you concentrate on your thoughts,the more they are born and you can never have a quiet mind.The only way out is,be indifferent to them.Watch them coming and going.Remain neutral.Don't try to stop them.Don't attach yourself with them.They will stop.

lol. I don't know about cute but I know I'm near crazy if I can understand computers better than people. But yeah, I agree. A good rest helps A LOT.
