Aw, pink flamingo, I know exactly what you are talking about! I ruminate all the ever loving time! Mostly it's a bout how sad my life feels, I have fallen away from my former life because of the depression. No friends, no joy, I'm embarrassed that I have been on autopilot and I feel like I don't have a future. This is what I am really struggling with right now and my brain just never shuts off. It's such a relief to read that someone else has this issue, I feel so alone. But I know it is all so unproductive! And negative! I have a very logical part of me that keeps me aware that life is so awesome and that I should be thankful for every moment..Then I feel so ashamed of the destructiveness of those thoughts but the negativity seems to win..I slide back to the icky thoughts.
I read that link to the snap club that vital suggested, that's GREAT! May give it a try. I sure am thankful to have read this tonite, I'm kinda new here and really appreciate people's thoughts and support. You take care
