matzoball Report post Posted March 14, 2013 Smiley, you need to be a lot clearer. Take some time and tackle it one bit at a time. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
smileyK Report post Posted March 14, 2013 What in explaining what I mean by being 'clearer'? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
positive_about Report post Posted March 15, 2013 (edited) Yes, emotional pain is just as important to heal as physical pain - it just needs a different response, such as counseling or therapy. Suppressing/trapping emotional pain is not really a good idea, and may make things worse. Shutting up and getting on with it isn't really a healthy way to deal with emotional pain, and talking to the wrong people about isn't a good idea either. It sounds like you need to see a professional, but you could try self-help or by reaching out to someone you know is sympathetic.

smileyK Report post Posted March 15, 2013 I can't seem to 'heal' or 'move on' constantly 'trapped' suffocated by "pressure" emotional state/issues put me under! I've tried all three options given self-help , sympathetic 'listening ear' (friend/s or auntie etc) and professional (CBT ,behaviour modification,family therapy sessions,grief counselling) had it all over years ... But still left what had before emotional deep complicated issues! Not cleared up still there ever present! ;( Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
matzoball Report post Posted March 15, 2013 Smiley, without going into this too much as we have had this discussion before - the reason your troubles don't get resolved is because you don't tell the professionals everything. Write down what you feel, and that way the next time you go to the psychologist or whomever it is that you see - you will have it all there and they can start fixing all the deep stuff.

trekster Report post Posted March 31, 2013 Can you take supplements? eg 5htp, b vitamins, taurine to help with the anxiety and depression? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tanya52 Report post Posted April 27, 2013 I agree with Trekster about supplements. Look closer into your life style: what you eat and how you sleep. I go to Pilates then swimming twice a week, but feel that I need to do more hours to bust my endorphin production. Some of our ladies are doing 2-3 classes a day 4 days in a week. There’re no unimportant issues – think strategically in “can do” language. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
robert7111a Report post Posted April 30, 2013 SmileyK you need to "let go" of some of this emotional "baggage". This is choking you and stopping you from moving on. Work on one small thing at a time...i.e take baby steps rather than trying to tackle everything at once. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
