Making things up.in my mind

Kenny_1622

Hi

I have a problem were I make up scenarios in my mind of challenging situations involving people that are annoying me, and get emotional wound up about it, it's like I'm believing what I'm making up in my mind and I'm resenting the people involved more and more for thing they havent done but could potentially do. My mind never stops. Is this the anxiety or related to the ASD ?

  • I do this fairly frequently but I tend to catch it quite early these days, recognise that I'm doing it and say out loud "Ok, stop now."

    I'm sure it's related to past unresolved trauma and present or future anxiety, but I try not to let it run too far anymore.

    Mindfulness has helped and it's better than it used to be. I hope this helps.
