Published on Wealthy Affiliate — a platform for building real online businesses with modern training and AI.
Negative thoughts about prior experiences pop into my head, then the conversing starts in the mind about that bad experience or situation all day everyday...
People around me like friends and family are very often approaching me about being a very quiet person. People do not understand how the bipolar brain works. Sometimes even after you have been medicated 'IT' does not stop. I will now explain what 'IT' is...
Endless internal self talk
*When something goes wrong, When things did not work out the way you planned, others negative opinions, an argument with a person and when I dont get treated right that is when I have coversations in my head all day everyday.

Negative thoughts
The thoughts about what happened will pop in my head or the previous experience I have had, My mind then generates a conversation that lasts for hours about the same experience over and over again. At this point, other people see this as me being retracted or in my own 'world'.
Efforts to Silence my thoughts and conversations in my head:
- I go to GYM
- I Meditate
- I Pray Harder than usual
- I try to overcome my thoughts and read books
- I Sleep healthy hours, thats when I am medicated and can stop my mind from racing negative thoughts or worry.
- I go out into nature and just relax or speak to someone who understands about what is happening at that point in time in my mind.
- I Focus on my career and I study.
As a person with mental health disorders, besides a phsycologist, you MUST have a person that loves you, understands you and can be spoken to about the stuff that goes through your mind, the negative thoughts, the self doubt, the conversations in your mind, the way people treat you (friends, family and the public), and someone to literally explain all this too and more. That person does not have to be a spouse, it can also be a friend with no blood relation, a sibling you can trust, a cousin whose your favourite (I know I have one :) ) and or your parents.
I wish members who see this post can share this post, so that all people with or without Bipolar disorder can chirp in their experiences and thoughts in the comments :)
Thank you
