Destructive Thoughts

If you think you are your thoughts you will always be working on something because that’s what your thoughts will tell you. That is until you realize you are not your thoughts…

I’m not a doctor and I don’t profess to know how the brain works, but I do know this, for years I suffered from destructive thoughts until I learned it was my own mind that was creating them. I’m simply writing about my experience here. Every fall and spring I would be overcome by a mindset of destructive thoughts and the only way I knew to get out of it was to use distractions. But you don’t really get out of it by using distractions, all that happens is you shift the focus. Because the Conditioned Mind Patterns that are causing the destructive thoughts aren’t understood they always return; I was always stuck in the working on myself syndrome that plagues so many. All this created were distractions that kept me from finding out what was truly going on. I no longer get entrapped by this because I’ve discovered what was causing it. This is very important to understand if you want to break the conditioning of destructiveness. This may not be what the so called experts say about this, but I’m giving a first hand account of my experience and what was revealed to me. If you want to keep “working on it” that’s up to you, but understand you will always be working on it.

Writing this was in response to someone posting about self destructive thoughts. I reached out to them and their was response, I’m working on it. I said OK and moved on, but a lot arose inside me because of my destructiveness which I worked on for forty nine years. That is until the day I realized there was nothing to work on because my destructiveness was only a thought and thoughts only become real when they’re attached to. A destructive thought may arise as many thoughts do, but when it’s not attached to, whatever the thought is never manifests. If you think your thoughts are you you’ll always have to be working on something because that’s what your thoughts will tell you. But when you understand thoughts needn’t be given any energy, there’s no attachment and hence there’s no self created suffering, in this case self destructiveness. Think about it, but not too much because you are not your thoughts…
