Mental goals

If there was a way to stop myself from thinking about things that I shouldn't be thinking, I definitely would. It's not really something I "shouldn't" be thinking, but rather something that would be healthy for me not to think about. Knowing this, I'm living a pretty unhealthy life. A pretty unhealthy "mental" life? Either way, I shouldn't let these thoughts consume my life. Usually friends, work, TV, books get my mind off of these thoughts, but there are reminders everywhere. Funny thing is I think that there's no way to get over these thoughts until I just...get over them. Let things go. Easier said than done though. It's a chronic disease in my opinion, and it's eating away at my quality of life. I have to overcome this somehow, someway.
