You do know that your repititve thoughts arent considered thinking, it is is in fact a mental disorder.

Just because your mind is active, repeating over and over the same thoughts and ideas, is not considered thinking. Its a disease, a condition that most of the population suffers from. People spend so much of their time with the same thoughts that these thoughts become their reality. These thoughts begin to control every part of their life, and are constantly reinforced by the outside world. Then your happiness and sadness is controlled by your out of sync mind and the world around you. You can never be happy if your mind is in control. This is how anxiety and depression grow, as negative thoughts take control of every part of their life, until they can no longer put up with the fear and the endless circles, and then there are only two options left. This is no surprise thou in a world where the mind is not considered a tool, and is not trained. There are no classes in schools that teach you about your own mind. Its not until people are faced with a great fear, or great suffering that they themselves take the journey to understand what is really happening within them. Maybe because so many of these experinces are beyond explanation, and therefor extremely difficult to teach. This does not mean its as necessary as any other skill. Not until you stop these repetitive thoughts, that you can find peace and happiness.

I believe it often takes great hurting or tragedy for people to start to see whats going on within themselves because before that , they believe its just them, their lives, how they are, how things are and always will be, because that's what they have been taught one way or another this is the way it is, I guess the social conditioning.. of how we should act/behave what sort of life we are meant to follow ect..

I agree but i think its more than just that, i think the social conditioning also ignores a lot, often people only consider what social conditioning creates, not what it ignores, and many people begin to fear it, and try to pretend it doesnt exist, until as u said somethings forces them to, often by some painful tragedy. Or when certain negative emotions build up.

In the Garden of Solitude
