Don’t talk in your mind, or you’ll just end up deceiving yourself into a fool.
No one is listening to your head.
Someone nominate this guy for a Nobel prize.
I found a different way.
-see a psychiatrist, be honest with them and do what they say.
-see a therapist, be hones with them and do what they say.
-study psychology at a university, study the ever living ■■■■ out of it.
-exercise extremely intensely three times a week.
-be sociable; develop social skills if you do not have them
-look at others who have overcome it, learn from them, but do not copy them.
-be strong
-know when to be scared
I would add to that - set limits to yourself. You are not the center of the world and indeed you don’t have the power to change everything you think you. I particularly tell this over and over to myself at work as I try to footprint my touch but it intensifies my emotions and put additional burden on me, getting me delusional about managing everyone else and that I can head the entire company. Limits coupled with actions and the points you have listed will get you through.
I agree- that is what I meant by
I know when to retreat and stop fighting.
Do you mean when you are just overstressing yourself and making things worse. You seem to take on stress very well.
Not everything is speakable. Not every action can be justified. Love is madness. Love is madness because madness is beauty and existence is insane. People ■■■■■■■ break and die and hurt and cry and I can’t stand it I feel it all. If you can lift up one spirit, forget those that fell away, they will be back and have faith in a Higher Power, whether YOURSELF or inner wisdom, or the guides and role models you aspire to, the best role model you can be and don’t give into greed, social pressures, or depression because of false desires. Find balance inner peace, helps heal emotional wounds. Never leave the most important job unfinished, but learn to let it be and let live. Aspire to feel inspired. Nothing makes much sense to the divine.
Yeah, I meant that basically.
Do you mean like , don’t talk back to the voices in your head? That helps a fair bit
It helps to be able to think, at all.
That’s something I have to re-learn.
“Surrender to win”.
Old AA saying.
Yeah the being honest thing is a big one. I’m notorious for not telling the whole truth when it comes to what I experience (because I’m terrified of judgement and quite frankly embarassed by it all) and it ends up with me not getting the actual help I need because they never even know the real problems!
Ah well. I’ve definitely learned honesty is important.
Exercise is actually surprisingly helpful too. I find it most helpful at managing the rage I get from time to time.
Good advice!
Yes a good exercise is to see how long you can go without thinking a word thought and just think with those nice old clear ones idk theres so much more you can say without words.
