OK, are you ready? Give us your best five minutes on: LOUD

**********************************************

5 minutes? Really? On loud? OK. Loud. My head is so loud. I don’t have to have external noise. There’s internal noise. Something is always going on inside. It’s like I can’t turn it off.

This morning I was driving home from work just wanting to shut it off and shut down after a hectic night. I needed peace and quiet. I finally had to say to myself, “Shut up!” I literally said it out loud. For a moment, the chatter in my head paused and then after the shock of me talking to myself it resumed at a more frantic pace.

It was talking about the events of the night, things I needed to get done, wondering why my head was hurting (yeah, I wonder…you have this cacophony of noise yammering and see what happens. did i use the word cacophony right?), thinking about my homework that I need to complete to be done with the class I am in, thinking about the cat pooping on the floor and wondering why she has decided to do that, thinking of the gazillion coupons that I have that I need to clip. Too much to think about and it’s causing noise in my head and it’s LOUD!
