I Live Inside My Head

My feelings are not hard to hear or ignore. Its not easy to feel but I do all the time. Sometimes its hard and I dont want to feel anything not bad feelings anyway. But thats all I do all day long. Feeling sad and feeling empty.

I never knew that so many people shared the same problem as me. I'm 16 and I now KNOW that I live in my head. I'm constantly thinking. CONSTANTLY. I never stop. I have been this way since I was little. I can never just let go. I just...

At a young age, I learned to live inside my head. My own emotions and thoughts had to be kept within. To survive my environment, I learned to read others to know how to think and feel. Then I would act according to those readings...

I've been living in my mind for as long as I can remember, it was the only way i could go on. When things got tough, I'd just disappear. I have multiple realities in my mind, each with its own story and characters, it comforts me. I've...

Im not very sociable so I created a totally different world where im still me but ive sorted all my flaws. And im the person who I want to be. If im alone I go inside my world again and I shut off the outside world. I do it alot, like...

Reality sucks. The people in reality suck. The only good thing anywhere is in my own mind. There's nice people, who know just the right things to say to bring a smile to my face. But none of them are real. I spend so much time thinking...

If you had been criticized a lot as a child- I think you learn to defend yourself in your head. It is one danger that you have for your children if you are a overly critical parent.

and I hate it. In my mind I construct my future, my plans, my personality. In my mind, everything works out. In reality, nothing does. I stumble over my own words and generally fail to be who I wish to be.

I'm sure I could be labeled as antisocial at least a little bit, well maybe a pinch more than a little bit. It's not that I don't like people, I truly do! It's just that I like to watch the world from the inside of my head. I can go to...

I'm one of those people who can easily live inside their heads at any given time.
Sometimes I do it randomly, without thinking. My body goes into autopilot, which comes in handy if I'm walking. After a while I realize that I haven't...

I have completely started to wither away. I've always lived inside my head, but now its more intense. I always had a routine and something to keep me grounded in reality, but now I don't. I have my priorities mixed up. The worlds in my...

i guess you can say i'm not "normal". i use that term loosely because i don't know who i am. i'm 19 years old. 20 in september. no income. no high school education. i took my GED test in june and passed every single subject...

I live inside my head just like a lot of people. Fantasy or imagination is always better than reality because you can make anything that you want happen. It's great; I love it. When I'm having a bad day I just think of a story in my...

My story is quite a long one, so I wouldn't blame you for pressing the back button now. Like all of you I too am trapped inside my head. I wasn't always like this, I used to be as awesome as a person as I thought I could be. My...

I literally live inside my head. I don't know whether I am a maladaptive daydreamer or constantly in depressive rumination, but I can't stop thinking. It seems to get in the way of living. I'm scared and hurt by the littlest of things...

I'm so tired of facing reality. I've created a world inside my head and I'm always happy there. I'd rather stay there for the rest of my life than experience real things and hurt and being lied to.
