I know this isn’t very intrusive thoughts related but I thought I would post it here becuase I feel like people will understand. This question might sound silly and there is no way for me to really explain it but it feels like my thoughts are too much and only music contained in headphones at full volume can block them out.

Yes, I completely understand. For months I had to sleep with the tv playing, YouTube playing, and loud music playing all at the same time just so I could fall asleep because the thoughts were so loud. Stay safe.
it’s so refreshing to know that i’m not insane or alone in this. i’m sorry you had to go through this as well. <3
Yep. In fact, the thoughts themselves are almost like they're being blasted full volume through headphones themselves. Sounds like someone can't fucking decide what radio station to play in my head. Like, just pick an intrusive thought, brain.
Yes. And sometimes it actually feels like voices for a split second.
this!!
I sit in "silence" for long periods of time but there is not silence inside my head.
Yes. To all of it.
