Obsession... bothersome thoughts about a desire or a concern. The thoughts are difficult to banish from one's mind. But going with action to healthy routines is a start in a better direction. Also, one learned about doing the opposite action. Or redirecting by holding onto an ice cube for example. Going outside and exercising is a good rerouting of the thinking. Reportedly 15% or more of people have subclinical levels of obsession. This writer is on the obsessive spectrum.
Current obsessions:
