Upon rereading this lovely piece, and thinking of others you've recently written, I wonder if you have ever considered speaking to yourself out loud. Perhaps you already do, but I ask because for me, speaking aloud to myself keeps my head on straight.
I am bipolar, and when the inside of my head/world/experience, becomes too big for the outside, i.e. it feels as though the inside has become larger/louder than anything outside my head in the real world, I am in danger. In danger of depression, which is always lurking deep underneath, danger of mania, which is always close at hand.
I esp get into trouble when I have a running narration of my own actions in my head. Then I know it's time to draw a circle outside myself, and step into it. And start talking. Talking. Sometimes I will call people and talk. Sometimes I will sing. But any talking out loud, will start to heal me.
