How do you stop your mind from thinking?
Question:
I can't stop thinking. I need a noise distraction to go to sleep. I am always analyzing. I got a massage once and they left me alone in a room to relax for 20 minutes. I went insane.
How do I calm down my mind?
Answers:
are you calm when you do math? because you mentioned you are a mathematician, if you are calm whe you do math you are probably going to need to do very simple things to relax during your times that you are not doing math..some things i do are , I watch very intense TV shows Soprano's..Six Feet Under..I knit occasionally...I watch TV..because your mind is running all the time the most intense book..or TV show ,,or a very very funny show like Curb Your Enthusiasm..is what you need to stop your mind..I apparently have a high IQ and the one thing I learned when I was made aware of this was to find the simple most intense things to temporarily shut your mind off..of course morphine or heroin are what shut that part of your mind off that is constantly going..they are both intense drugs.a mild drug won't do it .and that is why you liked the freedom of euphoria you experienced,,you are not able to RELAX like some people..so follow a good intense show with good actors and characters...read heavy books once in a while,,take up a simple hobby once in a while like knitting it is repetitive and this is good too to stop the mind,,as far a humorous shows or movies..i find it very hard to find some that even can get me to laugh..the ending of Little Miss Sunshine did..Curb Your Enthusiasm did..intelligent people need simple intense solutions...I think too much and I also write too much !!!
Try to think about many things at one time,
one by one, and don't stop on any...
