I often get one word or two repeated over and over and have trouble self-referencing when I'm doing it, when I'm obsessing.
I think it's like, me being a control freak internally with myself as some sort of defence mechanism when I'm having trouble controlling the external environment when I feel stressed at it.
Kind of like very curt self-nagging.
Hi Ev:
I think brain quirks are more common that we previously thought. Back in the day, no one had anyone to compare with. Now with the net, we are seeing there really is no normal.
My brother gets that way. He had a thing about the word "Bank." Just peeled out in laughter. Over and over. BANK BANK BANK. I never knew if it was the financial institution or the grassy area, but it didn't matter. But he is one of those geniuses, a writer, and also became an atheist. I think verbal, word people have words floating around.
Yeah, I guess I get obsessive thoughts, but now they are like prayers of how much I hate god. I find them very annoying, stupid,and useless...........
Does that count?
