most people have internal monologues, and a lot of people don’t like it.
Imagine having someone who is constantly by your side all day and all night, they do not stop talking to you the entire time without stopping because they don’t need to breathe, now imagine that half of what they were saying was reminding you in intricate detail that one time you said that weird thing to that person, over and over and over, you can’t make it stop, it will stop when it is done, the other half is either the most bland and boring thoughts or some of the most bat shit crazy ideas.
Now imagine trying to have a conversation with a person who you really want to hear what they have to say, they say one random innocuous word which triggers that voice to go on a 5 minute rant about something else that has nothing to do with what that person was saying, you try to focus on the person you want to listen to, but the voice inside your head is exponentially louder than the other persons voice.
Now imagine you’re extremely tired, you need to get up early and you need to be rested, that annoying little fuck will sit there all night talking about how you need to sleep and how horrible it is you can’t sleep, but do you remember when you were 5 and you told that kid that really cringe thing, yeah thats what we’re gonna be talking about tonight…
I’d give anything to make that voice shut the fuck up for half an hour.
