I have Asperger's syndrome and OCD (among others), and my mind is constantly going.
I'm going to have to try harder, I guess! I'll keep you all updated on my progress (hopefully, there will be some!).

oh got it....you do have OCD and Asperger's syndrome...those are the ones that causing you the main issue....
I'm coming to the point that I understand I do have OCD issue...I can't get rid of a thought when it comes to me....for weeks, months, years....I keep thinking about it....like this break up....I keep thinking about it...and if for a moment, I don't, then I bring it back to my head...even in the middle of the night when I'm so tired and wake up...I still think about it...it sounds crazy...before, I was thinking everybody is like that...but now I understand it's just me...crazy me...hehehehe....
However, this OCD helped me to be a very successful student with A marks all...and I'm good at my job too...because If there is an issue, I keep thinking about it till I find a solution!!! still sounds crazy....
but...when I do meditation, I feel clear...yes, it's so difficult to get to the point that you do the right meditation....it takes years of practise....but you got to do it...because you can do it....lots of others doing it, so, you can do it too...
I love meditation....it makes my brain quiet....I need it...I do it at lunch time...and I want to add to it...night time is so good to do the meditation....trust me...at the begining you think your head is exploding...but try try try...and do excercise, it helps a lot....breathing helps more than anything else....make sure to do the meditation with a right CD....
let me know if you need more info...
take care of yourself my friend
