I constantly have a REALLY loud internal monologue/voice/narration in my head, as well as another stream thinking about something else, and then another one playing out different scenarios, and then another 'voice' on a different train of thought.
How do I quiet my internal monologue please? I feel like I’m trapped in a room with lots of people having conversations. The main 'voice' is the worst as its loudest. I often say 'shut up' or 'no' out loud…. People are going to think I’m crazy! I feel like I never get a quiet minute to myself.
I’m sure I’ll get mindfulness recommended to me, but it’s so hard to get that voice to shut up and focus on things outside my head. I guess I need practise.
To clarify… I am not hearing voices, these are just my own voices in my head.
Sometimes I wonder what it’s like to be 'unintelligent' (no prejudice for low IQs here, we are all our own valuable persons) and not constantly think about things.
