Hv, I'm currently looking into herbs or natural therapies that can help with the sometimes debilitating "associative storms" that I have. Associative storms are what I call the inability to stop a run of certain thoughts and actions, triggered by an outside source (words,noises,smells etc), this can be debilitating if it happens at work, or in a conversation with someone that doesn't know me well. When the trigger sets off these thoughts, (sometimes verbalisations), my mind calls up every bit of information on whatever subject the trigger is associated with. Usually this is quick and I just let it happen, but sometimes it can tie up my mind for minutes at a time, and people think I'm cracked. I have tried behavioural therapies, such as trying to distract myself, or even physically moving away from the trigger, but nothing seems to help.

Any ideas would be appreciated :)

P.S Molly Bloom , do you have any insight into this ?, would be interested to hear if you have seen this behaviour, and have any ideas (or maybe your husband or son do) in what I can do with this problem.
