60 minutes too much thought?

HDX

I often hear that 60mins of thinking of any kind leads to thoughts of depression what to you think? ( don't mull to long over it)

I notice this mostly when I am on the bus back to college
I start off happy out with my own thoughts feeling all independent and cool, and planning how i am going to change the world then after 3 hours am sick of thinking sick of all my music doubt my relationships with friends etc.

Heyes

Personal issue tbh

Not really, never get depressed or anything after thinking

Thinking hurts my brain, just put on the headphones to stop the voices upstairs. *shut it brain!*

boredom leads to you dwelling on negative aspects of your life and in turn leads to depression.
after being thrown out of school and then losing my job a couple of years later, i ended up unemployed and too young to get the scratch.
i spent most of my time sitting alone in my bedroom and developed depression.
definitely a personal issue.

I didn't intend for the discussion to go like this, I certainly don't want it anwhere near personal issues, I intended a discussion of this in the general sense.

The best way to stop thinking is to never take your ipod headphones out, you may end up half deaf but the music will clog the thinking holes in your brain.

That's what Ruu said.

Well Ruu's right, it does work. I spend a lot of my working day on Dublin buses, If I have my ipod with me then the time passes fine, I'm chilled out, relaxed etc. If I have to spend an hour on a bus with no music to keep me occupied it drives me f**king crazy. I get really wound up and stressed out over-thinking. Can't be good for you.

I can't stop thinking, how do I do that?

not at all.
I'll often work on problems in work or think about "insert topical debate here" for longer.
And its all good.

Reading a book on Lateral thinking by Edward De Bono. He appears to be the guru when it comes to promoting thinking as a way of life. Must give some of his ideas a shot.
