Does your mind just wonder?

I think I have been like this my whole life but just started to realize it lately. I think about the oddest things and situations. And the weird thing is its all weird stuff and "what if" stuff. Sometimes I feel its like deja vu or something. Recently I had a daydream that my boyfriends baby mama messaged me on Facebook to ask me if I wanted to play pool with her boyfriend and then they ended up sleeping with each other..CRAZY!!! And its not my sub conscience either because they don't even talk or anything. But its just weird thoughts that make my mind wonder and sometimes I think I am going crazy...lol

I think you just have an overactive mind. I think a lot of people have that too. I used to think that I always get caught with situations that I never expected. So, what I'd do is to think of everything that could happen, even if how crazy or how seemingly impossible it is. If I did, then I would be ready for a reaction or a consequence.

If I were to give you a glimpse into my mind, and the random stuff that goes on in there sometimes, you would assault me for doing so lol. I tend to do this often as well, and sometimes these "waking dreams" can take very weird directions lol. But I tend to think that if you have and exercise your imagination in such a way often, then when problems come up in real life you are more than equipped to rationalize the situation and find a solution.

Everyones mind wonders. Most of the times is seemingly onto just weird or silly things, but it's normal human behavior. As long as you don't start talking aloud to voices in you're head you're probably okay. As for the example you have maybe you're preoccupied with a possible situation between you're boyfriend and his baby mama. The mind is actually one of those things in science that they know a lot about but are only on the tip of the iceberg. The human mind actually has a vast and huge ability. Just think about. While you sit here typing you you're brain is telling you're heart to beat, your lungs to breathe, you're fingers to move, you're probably moving other parts of you're body as well, you hear sounds and see things and interpret them all at least subconsciously, all while still thinking about what you're typing as well as a few other things, as you could be eating, talking or doing a host of other things as well. Not to mention all those things stored in you're brain.

I think it is normal unless you do crazy things which really makes us crazy. I also noticed that my mind just wonder. There is no limitations when it comes to how I think of those things I have in mind. It sounds magical to me. Especially when my mind wonders about my future.

Yup a lot! I usually feel doing many things at a time. I don't know why this is happening but multitasking is one of my favorite.

I don't know, but I don't think, if you think the what if stuff is bad... because, the what if is always happens when we want to make some decisions, it is how our mind works, like, what if that plan not working? What i must gonna do? Its some kind of preventing thoughts too.
