Can anyone else relate, when something happens or is going to happen it is as if 10 people are violently arguing in your head, 9 of them are yelling unrealistic scenarios and a negative version of what happened and 1 person saying 1 positive realistic scenario but you only hear that one for a minute before all the other negative thoughts fill your mind. Thats probably the best way I can say it, it can go on for hours, on and off through out the day or sometimes days.
I'd say you pretty much nailed what's going on in my head. That's a really good way to explain it. Wish we ha snore positives in our head though. Guess that's what the meds the doctor proscribed are for.
Good we can relate, its terrible but meh i wish there were more than 1 positive thought what can ya do.
Yep good description. But st least there is a positive guy in there. That one is our friend. Try real hard to listen to that one . Think of that positive one as somebody you love and the other as ugly looking monsters and maybe that will help you want to keep the positive one. Head up
It's a great way to explain it - I was trying to explain it to my fiancee and mine was a little different - 'it's like there is a small bratty child in your head running around screaming all the negative things and misbehaving, and the other voice (the adult) is sitting quietly and can't calm the naughty child down'.
Pretty good way of putting it haha guess we gotta find the best way to explain it to people since they dont know how we feel and since its not physical like a broken arm and it is mental it's abit harder for people to understand.
Have you looked into eckhart tolles book, the power of now
he describes this very thing

It doesn't at all sound like schizophrenia! That's a massive misjudgement and fear mongoring.
It is social anxiety.
