I find that banging on a piano is what takes care of that for me. Nothing in particular…just whatever comes out of the fingers.

Hope you get your focus soon! (who’da thunk that a shirt would have such power!)

there is a place I go, its a small beach not far from my home, i its so quiet, the sea is often calm there. I sit on the shore, try and order or clear my mind. The sand there has seen more of my tears than anyone else.

I end up walking in circles since I am usually stuck with the kids….. I get it- I have both noise and then deafening silence….. I sooo get it.

I hope you have time to set it all straight in your mind

I go numb too. It’s weird that my 45min drive to work & from work has turned into ‘that’ place for me. Maybe because of the tires’ hum and the road noise and the scenic view I’ve seen a million times?
Kinda scary though bc sometimes, I do think “It’d be so easy to crank my wheel & go off the cliff…” Doh.
Quicksilver has complained that I become very ‘unemotional’ in any dark time. It’s like my shield though. *sigh*

I too get this! Exercise helps me too.

Water. I share that with you. Surf can really do and PT when I’m not feeling abjectly lazy. I do what PC describes. I go at it til I’m fried. ‘Course, I think what with the whole uterus thing, I tend to manage a tantrum or two as well. Yep! Totally playing the uterus card here.

Anyway. I hope you feel better soon. Really. I’m pulling for you.

first ~ that’s my FAVORITE quote ever.

and second. when my head gets ‘noisy’ it also gets super quiet. like too noisy that I shut everything off. like everything. emotional robot shut down. I think I’ve been there for awhile now. people call it my walls. my head has been quiet too long I think.. that’s why I visit the beach. it’s the only place I can hear my thoughts and the tears can fall. the ocean and the waves and the roll of the noise of something other than me is so theraputic. it’s the only place my walls can safely fall. hugs sweetie. you’re not alone.

The running – though I never would have believed it before – is what does it for me too. It’s my therapy time in my own head, and it works wonders… not to mention the endorphin rush at the end!

I have to distract myself with something completely different, or work out. The physical release helps, and sometimes a trip out can distract my mind enough that it bounces back with renewed focus.

This short post says so much to me. In fact I think it has brought me a bit of clarity in the sense of figuring myself out. It brought to light the fact that I’m not even certain how to categorize my thoughts let alone what action I need for *me* to find some clarity. Thank you for a starting point!
