I went to a therapist with this problem. His first question was "have you tried music therapy"? I thought he would reccomend some new age music or Yani or something like that. Instead he said to listen to whatever I like. He said it is nessesary to listen with ear buds, and with the music loud enough that it over rides your thoughts.
I tried that for a while and it does work. However I found something that works better for me. I listen to audio books (not too exciting ones) my favorite book is the old classic Walden. It was written in the 1800's long before all the problems of todays world, it has nothing to do with religion, and he give a detailed description of living in the woods in a simple cabin on a lake.
I listen on my iPod. I listened to that book for several years, to the point I can almost recite it word for word. I can tell you this as far as helping shut down the "snowball of thoughts" it does work for sure.
Now I have moved on to other books but still listen every night. I now use Audible.com and get a new book every month. I set the timer on the audible app to run for 15-30 min. every night. I usually fall asleep before the timer goes off.
Anyway, I hope that helps. It works on the principle of over riding your thoughts and refocusing your mind into the story of the book. For good peaceful books that will put you to sleep I reccomend:
Walden by Henry David Thoreau as well as Cape Cod by Henry David Thoreau. Both of those books transport me to a different time and can be like a switch to put me to sleep.
Hope that helps.

Zoo flip flop
by SyntaxError1974 innov 15,1949 watchtower page 349. proper relationship between men and beast.
men have wrongfully gone into the wilds and trapped the wild beasts and removed them from their natural homes, and placed them in prisons, such aszoos, and thus inflicted upon them cruel punishment.
the excuse of men for doing this is that it satisfies the curiosity and fancy of men.

Dogon- are you saying that you hope drug dealers will kill some witnesses? I would hope that is not what you mean, but if it is that would be no better than the GB wanting to kill apostates. I would like to think we are above that type of thing.

Busted. I am an undercover apostate hunter.
Acutally I chose the screen name Indian Larry because:
A: I do like to ride
B: I admired Larry's attitude
C: I also agreed with his personal motto: Question Everything
From his Wiki entry:
Having experienced and overcome many extreme tests in life, Indian Larry adopted the question mark as his life logo. Larry "had a lot going on in his head",and was by nature analytical, and a deep thinker. But ultimately he thought that one should just "roll with the mystery", and "live in the moment". Larry often expressed to those around him that he didn't pretend to know what was going on.] Basically applying the adage that wisdom is understanding what one doesn't know. Larry explained:
I don’t know anything in life. I just show up and go with the flow. I’m not a religious person but I'm a very spiritual person. Spirituality is instinctive and I believe it's more of a Zen type of thing. You stay in the moment and you’ll get the right answers, the correct answers. Every motorcycle is always a spiritual experience. Choppers specifically are a very integral part to my spirituality. When I go out for a ride or something I’m exactly in the moment. It’s like meditation. I’m in the flow.
One of Larry's attributes that was well-known to the public was his many tattoos, although he didn't have most of his tattoos until later in life (he got his neck tattoo when he was in his mid 40s in the mid 1990s). The tattoo on his neck, which went across the front of his throat, was often commented on.
The tattoo read: IN GOD WE TRUST
NO FEAR
VENGEANCE IS MINE
SAYETH THE LORDThe lettering of the middle two lines was in reverse so that it could be read in the mirror. Larry said that it was his way to remind himself not to judge others and that revenge was not his job.
Having grown up as a witness judging others was ingrained into every part of my life. I am proud to say that I no long do that. Period.
