Watching a movie sounds like a good distraction. I hope it helps.

thanks fern46! watching the movie and listening to a podcast helped somewhat but I was so elevated that it didn't last too long, unfortunately. I've had the same experiences with repeating thoughts, words and such when elevated. last night I was going on and on about the anxiety and agitation. I couldn't get centered and I tried doing some grounding with a rubix's cube and a fidget spinner lol. I had such a decreased need for sleep that I re-organized the paperbacks in my office. ugh. so manic...I hate it...thanks for the kind words and thoughts, fern46! much appreciated
