I’m trying to learn the difference between emotion mind and wise mind, and like not acting immediately on urges. Like when I feel the urge to binge eat setting a timer for 15 minutes and not doing it for that time. Usually urges pass pretty quickly it’s just waiting it out could actually help me if I start doing that. This applies to other urges like shopping, and texting people in the middle of the night about random stuff that pops into my minds that I’ll feel like an overwhelming sense that I HAVE to share this immediately. That’s emotion mind. Usually when the feelings are overwhelming it’s emotion mind. That’s what I’m learning anyway. And to not take action when in that mind. To hold off until it passes cause it will. Also the impulsive breaking up with my boyfriend because I did that a few times. I get overwhelmed then feel this sense that I HAVE to be alone right now so I try to cut off all my relationships. Idk. I’m just bizarre I guess. Anyway, I’m trying to work on it. (We’re still together by the way, that happened a few weeks ago) he talked me through it because he knew I was just being impulsive and that it would pass.
And stopping my meds. That’s the other impulsive thing I do
