A local woman who struggles with constant critical thinking has decided the best way to get around this is by simply ensuring her mind is occupied at all times, by either scrolling on social media, watching TV or popping on her headphones, it’s reported.
Speaking to The Advocate, Clara Fitzgibbon, 28, reveals that being constantly stimulated is the only way to keep her sanity, because there’s no fucking way she wants to be left to her thoughts.
“As soon as I have just one minute to myself, I start thinking about every single thing I’ve done wrong in my life”, explains Clara, “and then I feel sad.”
“So, instead of doing that, I just make sure I’m distracted every waking moment.”
“Whoever said the idle mind is the devil’s playground, is very correct.”
Clara says she’ll pop in her headphones the second she’s left to her own devices, even if it’s something as quick as a two minute walk to the shops.
“No thinky, no saddy!”
More to come.
