Hanging by a thread

I’ve noticed these posts are all over the place which, to be fair, is rather how my brain operates. Probably doesn’t make it much fun for anyone actually trying to read this though.

I’ve found over the years that I have to try to corral my mind by giving it things to work on or it goes rogue, repeating intrusive thoughts and dark memories that I don’t want to dwell on. Not sure if that’s a good approach or if I’m just putting off the inevitable but it generally works for me. So I generally have multiple projects that I’m working on, so I can distract the toddler in my head that’s always bored senseless.

At the moment I’m doing an online course on Neuropsychology which is rather interesting, I find trying to grasp things from a scientific point of view easier than abstract ideas. I’m always left with a lot of questions though and it’s not like you can go and poke a Neuropsychologist and say “Hey can you just explain this bit better please”

I also have writing and arts and crafts projects on the go so that whatever level of intelligence I’m able to muster up I have something to do, studying complicated subjects when there’s a screaming tornado in your head is beyond my capabilities.

Still trying to decide whether to post my feeble attempts at Art. I never feel as though I ever actually finish a project. I always look at them and think I need to fix this bit or that could do with being better. How do you decide when enough enough?
