Doesn’t sound insane to me at all. I’ve had weekends when I went to bed on Thursday night and got up on Saturday morning. All day gone, slept 30 hours straight! I didn’t try to fight it either. Just had no will to do anything but sleep 😴
Thoughts are fascinating, but the shit they say sometimes is disturbing and makes us believe that it’s the truth, while it most definitely isn’t. I spent days and night so deeply in my thoughts that I barely realised anything around me.
Anyway… I’m happy that you are getting help. I’m seeing holistic practitioner too, cause things got out of hand and my body started reacting with allergies and various other health issues. I was running myself down, or rather my mind was doing it 😂
Thoughts are scattered and our brain makes them up when we are stressed mostly. Overthinking also causes delusional thoughts and imaginary images. My doctor said, my brain picks very specific images from different incidents and creates a whole new story and presents it. It is so vivid that it makes me believe that this is going to happen to me. For example, I was on the bus going to the hospital and somehow I imagined myself on a train and almost forgot where I was, what's the reality...
My treatment still didn't talk about holistic practitioners but they did suggest group talking sessions so that I feel comfortable and believe that there are people like me, and I am not alone...
I hope you are doing well now...
