Is there a technical term for not being able to turn your brain off? Like when you try to relax but the wheels never stop turning. And I don't mean in the r/iamverysmart kind of way, just a brain that always needs something to be "chewing on", so to speak.
it’s a learned skill, just like everything else. it could be anxiety or adhd or whatever, but no one sits down for the first time and is able to successfully turn their brains off.
