Quote: I dunno, I'd rather spend less time thinking about the OW!
Flip,
I know what you mean, but really overthinking something bothersome is actually a very good way to get through it. In a way it's like CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy) which is used with OCD. With CBT one is "exposed" to bothersome thoughts regularly until they are no longer bothersome.
Eventually thinking of OW will elicit no bothersome or upsetting feelings.
There is no arriving, ever. It is all a continual becoming.
