reverse psychology is ruining my life....starting to get depressed


Question Posted Sunday July 22 2012, 12:04 pm

Hi i'm a female in my teens. when i am in a happy place, and i wouldn't change that happy moment for the world, i tell myself that nothing could ruin that moment. then, since i am telling my mind that i dont want to ruin it, it's like reverse psychology. my mind starts to think of a way to ruin that moment. so, it results in me saying wishes and curses in my head, but it's not my fault. it is the OPPOSITE of what i want to happen. and then i get lethargic and depressed because i dont mean what i am saying and then i spend every waking minute praying that these wishes and curses dont come true. other times, i convince myself that things are real and true, when they're not and they're just in my mind. as soon as i get words or a picture in my mind, it controls my thoughts and never escapes my thinking. so, the bottom line is, my mind plays tricks on me, by manipulating my thoughts and turning them into something i dont want to happen.it's a very hard concept to explain, and i hope that someone understands what i am saying. i don't know what to do. at first, it wasn't that bad. but its gotten worse to the point where my mind is always somewhere else, because i can't get my mind off of it. and i think im a bad person, because of all the horrible things in my head. what should i do? is there no hope to my serious problem? is there something wrong with me?has anyone else ever been through this, or is it just me? should i be concerned or am i paranoid? if anyone answers this question, i really appreciate it, thank you

You know, I was sort of in the same shoes as you. I would have good thoughts in my head and then they get overcome by bad thoughts. I believe some of it comes from anxiety, at least that's what mine was. I've learned to control these thoughts. One thing that really worked was, I need to sometimes just stop thinking. I need to clear my mind out. Music was a major help because all I had in my head was my favorite music. Another great thing is consult a best friend. Friends are here to help in anyway possible. Maybe by consulting a friend, they will help you overcome your thoughts. Don't give up. it happens to everyone, especially when they are alone to long and let thoughts go through there mind like crazy...it happens to me.
