Running away from the thoughts.

Most of the time, i find myself overthinking. Its triggered by things that other people say or being somewhere in the silence for too long, me and silence don't really go together.
Each time i find myself overthinking, I pick up my headset and listen to music. Its the only way I get to run away from my own thoughts.
They are scary sometimes. I listen to NF... He is kind of the only rapper i can really relate to... What kind of music do you listen to and whats your most preferred way of dealing with overthinking?

Welcome to myLot Maxwell! I hope you enjoy being here.
I find it hard to control my thoughts and they can go all over the place. However, I can control how I react to my thoughts and counter the thoughts that I don't like. I can think about what it would be like to jump from a tall building but I am certainly not going to do that.
I like melodious music and don't like all music but do like a lot of it.

Music is truly a great way to get away from over thinking. I love reading books whenever I am alone and can fall into over thinking.

I prefer unknown languages songs when I'm sad. Because it's the lyric that make us more sad, but a heart touching music can heal our pain. Mostly the Rhythm that helps us get out of the pain.

I feel overthinking creates un necessary imagination which sometimes lead to nothing

I will be honest that i do the same. Which causes me bad anxiety. Music is literally my addiction. Music is my escape from reality. I am just saying how i do things but i don't know about others.

Hi friend, In my case as a Latino, I listen to salsa. And the way I deal with my excessive thoughts is doing activities that require my full concentration.
