I cant stop thinking about the things no-one understands and never will?

its not the things like why is the sky blue?, its the big things like how things came into existance or how something can stop existing or how can space go on forever. i thought maybe space is round same as planets but it still makes no sense either cuz theyre would still need to be something after it. or like when you die how can your thoughts just stop? how can it stop existing? the body not working anymore i can understand cuz its still there physically so it hasnt actually stopped existing but you cant see your mind when its dead so it literally is no longer existing. and then theres the 'time is linear' thing. it just seems strange that you dont exist in other time. ive been sitting here for 5 minutes but actually the last 5 minnutes of me sitting here dont exist now.


theres loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooads of other things but i dont think i quite need to write them all lol





anyway, i know everyone thinks about these things from time to time but for me its everyday now. ive been struggling with depression since i was 14 (im 22 now) and i dont see any hope of ever being happy, but all these questions are making it waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay worse! trying to make sense of it all takes up most of my time these days so im missing out on time to have fun, but i cant just go out and have fun anyway because the fact i dont understand the world and life makes me not want to go out in it.





how do i stop this? its actually making me want to kill myself so i can be free from it!


imagine being in a huuuuuuuuuuuuuuge traffic jam for hours with everyone beeping their horns and obviously you want it to move or at least get the noise to stop, but all you can actually do is sit and wait.


thats how i feel everyday because of these thoughts! please help!I cant stop thinking about the things no-one understands and never will?
You need Cognitive Behavioral Therapy... in a nutshell, ';what you think is what you feel';. I was diagnosed with a severe depression 8 years ago and I've been depression and medication free for 7 years now. Check out the book I note at the bottom of this post; it literally saved my life.





Over thinking is dangerous... and if done a lot, you get good at it and can quickly get the better of you. It can become overwhelming and debilitating. Something I learned is that behaviours and thoughts can not be STOPPED; only REPLACED. You need to find good/productive thoughts and actions and replace them when you start doing a behaviour or thought that is not wanted. It's hard at first but the more you do it, the better you get at it. I struggle with depressive thoughts daily; but I have my ';action plan'; that I put in place to quickly change the automatic negative thoughts and replace them with things that are more healthy for me.





You might need medication to help clear your thinking so you can put good practices in place.





Crafts (like cut and paste), gardening, colouring - simple tasks are also beneficial. Try not to reject them before trying (a huge depressive trait). Distracting yourself is good; and the gain is you feel good while doing them.





good luckI cant stop thinking about the things no-one understands and never will?

dont think about that just enjoy life to the max.
Okay, you sound like a philosophy student, but if you have always been prone to obsessive thoughts maybe professional help is the relief you're seeking.





Maybe you have one of those pesky brain chemical imbalances. You sound like someone with Aspergers, obsessive-compulsive, high intelligence, functional, and not understanding the world outside of your home and not wanting socialization.





BTW, of course our intelligence exists after the fall of the physical body to its death. It is only a piece of meat after all, a carcase like any other.


Just because human beings cannot see soul and spirit in this dimension with our puny visual capabilities and our limited and trivial thoughts, does not mean they do not exist, or that they are trapped in one realm.





Animals know they do. Some animals sense them, while others can actually see them. Put that intellectualization to rest. Silly.





If you're antidepressant ';pooped-out'; (a clinical term) then get a different one. How tough is that?
haha, many of these questions can be answered in time.





Dont lose sleep or kill yourself (his/her words not mine :D) because you cant understand it, just learn to live with it. Some things people will never understand, such as why there are no purple trees.





when you get a question in your head, just forget about it. Dont pay attention to it. just block it off, do other things, or give yourself an answer just to ease your mind.





It is easy to get wrapped up in how the universe came to be, but honestly it doesnt matter. The point is that we are here, now. The entity that created the universe did a great job.





And if you are thinking are we alone in the universe, there are billions of galaxies, each containing millions of planets. Do you really think that humans are the only inhabitants in the universe, only inhabiting one of ( Infinity - 1 ) planets? I think not. Sorry nay sayers, but that would simply be illogical. ;)
it's natural for people's minds to go to the unknown. it wants what it knows it can't have. my suggestion is join a church. try a few out and see which one fits you the most. go to the classes before worship and ask questions. they'll give you lots of possible answers, you don't have to accept them all, but it should give the unanswered questions some relief
