I’m feeling anxiety at having trouble breathing. My nose is congested. They’ve taken the simplicity out of the website. It’s confusing I can’t tell if anyone is responding and the information popping up is annoying. I feel like I’m withdrawing off of something. I feel like all that I left behind is coming back to me again. I can’t run from myself but noone believes me noone thinks I’m possessed and I’m possessed, I’m dying inside. I’m scared it is all going to happen again. I was reading a text of abnormal psychology and where on the topic of schizophrenia and its stirring up emotions in me. Help me please.
As many others have very intelligently asserted on the basis of their experience with delusional thinking, “This is the disease talking.”
I had to learn (with the help of Albert Ellis’s Rational-Emotive Behavioral Therapy; see http://www.rebtnetwork.org/) that my head is out to get me and just exactly how it does that.
We feel “good” or “bad” according to how we judge, appraise, evaluate, interpret, assess, analyze and attribute meaning… on the basis of our core beliefs. You might want to look over the list of bogus beliefs at http://www.rebtnetwork.org/library/ideas.html.
BUT… believe this for the time being: There’s a lot that can be done to yank us out of these depressive dives… IF we use the stuff. Happy hunting.
