What thoughts keep you up at night?

[OliveOlivia]

What do you think about most when its late at night and you cant sleep because your mind keeps running?

[Indrid Cold]

This used to happen quite a bit. Job stress. Family worries. The answer: don't even try to sleep. Just read a book. Perhaps, as revenge on God for giving you stress, read a book you think He'll disapprove of -- say, 'Little Red' by Chairman Mao, or 'Good Times!' by Justin Lee Collins.

@OliveOlivia What's my purpose in life? What if I never exist? How many years are left for me? If I die would they cry? What if I'm a cat should I be happy? Why everyone is leaving without even saying or making a warning? Why am I so good giving advices to anybody but can't even apply to myself? why humans were created? Why do we need to sacrifice for the sake of happiness of the others? Why is it when you're enjoying the moment it will just takes a few minutes? Why earth is so cruel and evil? what if aliens or vampires invade us? why do we need to hide the pain and just keep it to ourselves? Why people are so plastic, atrocious, and users? What if there's only one language does everybody gonna be happy? and etc... a lot of it...

@OliveOlivia Not much any more, if anything. I'm pretty at peace and have got what I needed to get sorted sorted. Maybe the welfare/happiness of my son or generic state of the world. But if I feel something is on my mind which is going to get in the way of sleep I'll tend to do a bit of meditation and clear my head that way.

Yesterday, I saw my ex who used to torture me, in my dreams. And since then i am so anxious to text him. Idk what to do

Aranha, if yr not careful, one day someone's going to 'out' you as a sensible grown-up.

@Indrid-Cold Haha little do they know... 😉

Money
Relationships
Health.

That's also what keeps most people up at night which is why Astrology writers fchoose to make up things in those topics.

@OliveOlivia

Usually it's not just a thought it's actually a bunch of messed up glued together big thought.
I pretty much think... or rather overthink about everything that is in my mind, so there's not really a certain subject :shrug:

[artistweeb]

The thought why do we exist why are here to just die what's the point of doing anything if we're just gonna die one day why do we wake up any do we love and then there's the question of where you go when you did many people believe in heaven and

In general I don't find that woman very beautiful, but that gesture is really kinda cute...

At a stage when im almost asleep, my mind gets filled with dreams,thoughts,desires and questions. Most of them are about my future. I think about my purpose in life and about my destiny. How will I be as a person,what will i achieve,in what aspects of life will I fail etc etc etc.

[pe7erpark3r]

@OliveOlivia Worries about my projects... Self doubts... Doubts about wether I'm on the right path, wether I'm interpreting things correctly... Lately, worries about the one...

But then again, I'm kinda lucky in that I have a regular sleep. So it's not that these thoughts keep me awake. It's rather that when I'm awake because something irl kept me awake, then that's what I think about...

What does keep you up @ night?

Do those thoughts get you anywhere though? Do you think you know more about yourself than you did before staying up thinking those things?

[OliveOlivia]

@Haydennn That is a lot to deal with. I know my words don't mean much as I am just some random stranger on the internet. But you should know your life is worth so much and I know you may think you cant get through whatever is making you feel like this, but that is just your brain playing tricks on you. Whatever you are going though, you will get through it. If you ever need someone to talk to, I am here.

[ScruffyMutt]

@OliveOlivia you had a car accident because you broke a mirror last year, stepped in front of a black cat last month, spilled salt last week, and walked under a ladder before you got in your car.

You had a car accident because Mars - which is a hunk of rock no closer than 93million miles and up to what? 200million miles away? is over here in the sky instead of over there.

Yes, it's crap. It's not a fact or a science.
ASTRONOMY is.

Thank god you know how to use commata. That would have been awkward. :joy:. Don't text silly, it's just a dream reminding you of how much you liked being tortured...
