Luke Combs has told how compulsive ideas affect him and how he deals with them. He hopes to show other affected people that they are not alone.
As it is when his disease breaks out
Compared to “60 minutes Australia”, the singer described his forced thought: “Essentially it is thoughts that you don’t want … and then they cause stress. And then you are stressed. And then the stress means that you have more of these thoughts. And then you don’t understand why you have them. And you try to get rid of them. But trying to get rid of them means that you have more of it. ”
His forced thought can break out on stage, and “If you strike, you can eat everything.”
He also stated that a “really worse outbreak” can last for weeks for “45 seconds of every minute”. “It kept me back in my life so often when you try to achieve something and you are really well. And then you have an outbreak and it is how … it just ruins your whole life for six months. “
How he tries to cope with his forced thought
The “When Rains It Pours” singer works to break away from his forced thought: “I have to learn to just say: ‘It doesn’t matter what the thoughts are’. I just have to accept that they happen. […] The less you think about why you have them, the more they disappear. ”
Those thoughts rang from “pushy violent thoughts” to thoughts about religion and himself. He stated that, “it is about things [geht]”There is no answer to”.
He hopes that he can help others who have forced thought. Because he wants to show that it is possible to live on his life.

Which topic does the singer pick up?
After women were acted as the “only possible research object” at the beginning of psychoanalysis, which is reflected in the fact that the expression “Crazy Woman” and not “Crazy Man” exist, there are also men who are diagnosed with mental illnesses these days. Luke Combs is one of those who also tell of their mental illness.
In a society in which mental health is considered a high asset, but also as something that can be injured in every person, telling how to manage your own mental illness is a sign of progress.
