Identifying and managing anxiety, panic, stress, post traumatic stress (PTSD), obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), and phobias, including shyness and social phobia.http://www.selfhelpmagazine.com/phorum/list.php?69Sat, 21 Nov 2009 01:34:38 -0800 Phorum 5.2.7 http://www.selfhelpmagazine.com/phorum/read.php?69,117372,117372#msg-117372 http://www.selfhelpmagazine.com/phorum/read.php?69,117372,117372#msg-117372I'm new to this site and this is my first post.

This is very embarrassing to admit but, eventhough I'm almost 60, I'm being bullied verbally at work by another staff member.
I was physically, verbally, sexually bullied for years while growing up by my father and other adults and school kids. I guess I've never really gotten over it or learned how to deal with it.

For some reason I can't just ignore what this B**** says to me. She seems to know exactly how to get to me, although I try not to show it or retaliate. I try to take the high road and act as though I don't notice. She yells and criticizes me in front of other staff although my supervisor has no complaints about my work. But the staffs supervisor and mine are 2 different people so they have no idea what my supervisor thinks of my work.

It's a work environment so it's not the place to shout at her (it wouldn't work anyhow because I'm terrible at confrontations. My mind goes blank).
Also she's been there over 20 years (I've been there only 4 years).
They know she's like this (other people in my position have already quit because of her) but since she's reliable they leave her alone or, at the most, they've moved her to a different locations. Also this is a low paying position and they always have extreme trouble hiring new people because of it. They'd rather just keep the staff they already have.

My blood pressure has jumped 30 points on days I've had to deal with her. (I'm already on medication for blood pressure and anxiety.)
I've gotten to where I hate going to work.
I know the simple answer is to quit and get a new job, but at my age and where I live it'd be almost impossible.

I need to know how to deal with her.
I can't believe I'm this old and still "a mark".
I've been to counseling but they didn't help.
This must be one of those things that you need to experience in order to give advice.

Does anyone have any suggestions?
Have you been in this situation?]]> PurpleLilacs AnxietyTue, 20 Oct 2009 16:47:09 -0700 http://www.selfhelpmagazine.com/phorum/read.php?69,117259,117259#msg-117259 http://www.selfhelpmagazine.com/phorum/read.php?69,117259,117259#msg-117259Hello everyone, I am new to the Self Help Forums. I am looking for a "telephone buddy," who is also healing from severe childhood trauma or traumas, to share experience, strength, perspective, and hope with.

My values are: humor, good nutrition, fitness and fun.

Is anyone else doing self-healing by following Carolyn Mein's book - "Releasing Emotional Patterns with Essential Oils."
If so, I would love to hear from you too.

Looking forward to hearing from people!

My wife was injured in a motorcycle accident last month. Nothing too serious but she broke her left leg and right shoulder. This has meant that she is housebound and unable to walk on crutches. I'm out in Chiang Rai over Songkran, and want to take her out and about for a few trips. Does anyone know where I may be able to hire a folding wheelchair, so that we can make a few excursions?

I'm among the top students at my school. Now im not one of the more geeky, book-worm kind. Not at all (though i still manage to ace the exams). Im into sports, public speaking (won a national award), bodybuilding, chess, video games etc etc. The reason why im here is that the things seem to have gone a bit slack. It's like im being careless with my time. I procrastinate a lot. If i start something, i leave it unfinished. I plan a lot but somehow end up getting "sidetracked" by something. Im able to keep myself absolutely motivated for like 10 days before things get chaotic again. To put it short, im a guy who's got all the talent in the world, who knows he needs to work harder, who knows time is money, but somehow is letting that time go to waste. I wanna push the limits. I wanna realize my true potential. I wanna excel (gee, im getting motivated writing all this :p).

Help me start working hard again. My main problem is i waste my time on stupid useless things a lot n spend less time with my med books.

thanks in advance.

To be simple, the thinking process is that right brain constantly embodies questions and left brain provides solutions; right brain approves or negates the process recorded by left brain.
Right brain creates suppose and left brain tries to answer. If right brain gives an approval, left brain memorizes this question and its answer. The positively confirmed answer of left brain by right brain will form permanent memory which can be aroused later and is the correct information of left brain which is called successful memory. Information from successful memory takes part in the process of thinking immediately. In the process of thinking, questions go with answers and they are recorded rapidly. With the time going, more and more successful memories are formed. The information from successful memories of all aspects finally shapes a complete answer to a question. Non-stress same information substitution compresses and recombines so many successful memories. For instance, if thinking is a machine, successful memories are the parts of this machine; and Non-stress same information substitution is to assembly the parts into a machine; the process of right brain raising a question and left brain providing a correct answer is the process of making parts. The process of question creating and answering inside the brain is the process of constant self-study, thinking and making judgment.

Right brain creates a question and left brain tries to answer this question; when right brain receives an answer from left brain, it responses with approval or denial after judgment. If it gives an approval, the answer will be listed as successful memory. In this process, only the final result of judgment is received by left brain, approval or denial, it doesn’t know the reason for the result, which is called potential consciousness. If right brain negates the answer of left brain, left brain will rapidly forget the answer to prepare another one. The reason for super-memory disease is that right brain approves all the answers of left brain and the left brain no longer forgets any answer no matter it is right or wrong. Patients with this disease have abnormal memory, but their memories are mixed with large amount of false and illogical content. The false information will halt the non-stress same information substitution.

In the function of supervision-control, right brain creates a question and left brain tries to answer, which is divided into three situations: 1. correct answer, which is recorded by left brain and becomes our peaceful and nice memory, successful memory; 2. left brain fails to answer and responses with no answer, then right brain creates another new question from another angle to let left brain answer; 3. right brain negates the information of left brain. There are three kinds of denials: 1) right brain is monitoring the information in the left brain and responses with denial in a quiet way. In this situation, left brain needs to run for a long time until right brain captures the right information; 2) while right brain monitors left brain’s processing information, it expresses a denial at incorrect information in a specific way, which is the adjustment and correction we feel. 3) Right brain gives an approval and a successful memory is formed, but the information is proved to be wrong later, namely right brain regrets, but the successful memory is already there; at that time, internal error processing function is triggered to clear the successful memory, for example, the guilty feeling (left brain) after a failure or mistake, self-accusation (right brain); at that time, the brain stops creating new questions and answering, which means supervision-control function is going to be restraint and closed. When the function is enabled again, the previous false behavior will be forbidden to appear again, but there will be a loss of original ability.

Non-stress same information substitution is responsible to assembly large amount of correct and unilateral information---successful memories are assembled into final information. It is the function of processing successful memories. In this process, it can only recognize the number of successful memories and determine whether successful memories are in shortage or superfluous, then it sends a feedback to right brain about the lack or superabundance in the form of simulant sound, and right brain copies the feedback and raises the question which one is missing or which one is superfluous, then left hindbrain answers and right brain gives an approval adding a successful memory or deleting a superfluous one formed by feedback information, in order to assist the non-stress same information substitution function. While memories are processed by non-stress same information substitution function, information can be edited by language or adding information. Human brain’s concept of quantity, information imagination, substitution ability and mathematic ability originate from non-stress same information substitution function.

Internal error processing function, this function is to clear false successful memory and can control supervision-control function. The two need a kind of balance. If the internal error processing function is too powerful, it will restrain thinking leading to distress and pessimism, but if the internal error processing function is too weak, it can’t restrain a false thinking leading to false behavior, for example various illegal behaviors. There are three ways to maintain the balance between internal error processing function and supervision-control function. Conscious way: image you are a bad guy in your mind and image you feel free to do all the bad things no matter how evil they can be with your eyes close, namely image bad things with eyes close. But please note that this function can only be run in imagination with eyes close. If you do that with your eyes open and arrested by the police, please don’t tell them I ask you to do that. Image with your eyes close you are doing all the bad things, which is the internal expression of antagonistic psychology inside us. Convenient and easy unconscious way: say something quietly with the eyes close. It means something nonsense, somewhat like a curse. Playing with your wife or friends of the same sex, similar age and shape you trust the most can still maintain the balance between internal errors processing function with supervision-control function. But the range of objects you play with should be limited, when two persons are alone. When we image committing evil things with the eyes close, no matter how bad they are in your imagination, will you do that in reality? You can do a little test. You will forget most of the bad things in your imagination after you open the eyes, because the information of internal error processing can’t be recorded by memory function.

For a schizophrene, their right brains are able to raise a question and their left brains are able to answer the question, but right brain fails to monitor the content of answer clearly and give a correct judgment; though a successful memory can be formed, there are many false successful memories and brain has to frequently use internal error processing function to clear those false successful memories, but the internal error processing function can restrain supervision-control function creating negative emotion; Excessive elimination of successful memory can restrain supervision-control function leading to mental deterioration.
In the symptoms of schizophrenia, deliria is associated with non-stress same information substitution function; suspicion and obsession are associated with supervision-control function; hallucination is associated with sound simulation function without other hallucinations. The method to judge whether a psychiatric patient’s internal error processing function, the internal program, works properly or not is asking him about self-evaluation. If he describes himself as a perfect person, president, multimillionaire and so on, his psychopathy is still with him. Among the symptoms of schizophrenia, deliria and hallucination can be cured, namely non-stress same information substitution function and sound simulation function can be completely cured. But right brain’s supervision on left brain can’t be cured as the problem is caused by organic damage. Being unable to correctly supervise information is caused by damaged brain function in the whole thinking process. Murmuring an intuitionistic noun from visual information in private can relieve negative symptoms caused by the poverty of thought.
Vision triggers intuitionistic noun function, namely speaking an intuitionistic noun in visual information; the sound of murmuring an intuitionistic noun is the start of thought; without the start, all follow-up thought can’t be started.
Visual information only includes information of shape and color, right brain creates a question according to the information of color, which is the thinking in image; the thinking in image is the process of discovering a question from visual information. Left brain creates abstract thought according to the information of shape to answer a question.
Biological clock is the clock inside human body and is located in left brain. Left brain sends out information of biological clock, right brain triggers a control order according to the time expressed in the information biological clock after picking up the information of biological clock, for example, when to work and how long I work. Besides, biological clock also takes part in the process of creating space in left and right brain. It is essential in a conscious behavior (for example shooting a basket when playing basket). For the symptoms of epilepsy, brain tissue discharges excessively, high excitability, twitch of limb. These symptoms are caused by the abnormity of biological clock in the behavior of forming consciousness in right and left brain. The root reason is the abnormity of biological clock. The information of shape in left brain and the information of time in biological clock work together to form a 3D motion scene for information of shape, and right brain provides the direction of 3D motion and determines the position of the 3D space of information of shape.
Memory function and information storage function is the source power for human to exercise work event. Right brain raises a question and left brain answers the question; after the approval of right brain, the answer will be converted to eternal successful memory; for the same questions later, successful memory will be aroused to take part in the process of answering question.
Judgment function, namely “yes” and “no”, right brain separately creates topic supposes “yes” and “no”, and left brain tells the result of “yes” and “no” to realize its judgment ability.
Personality, human’s thought not always works. It can have a rest in some points and these points are fixed, so this is personality. Personality shaping, a kind of phenomenon is like that: the spy assigned by a poor country to a rich country will always be a spy regardless of his safety and material interest no matter how the enemy try to persuade him or even threaten him by death. The root of the power of this kind of behavior may be the changing and rescission function of controllable gene. Some persistent and unpersuadable behaviors become a kind of personality which is shaped after birth.
The process of thought is right brain constantly asking questions, left brain answering and recording after the approval of right brain, forming successful memories; non-stress same information substitution function processes successful memories and forms a final result; non-stress same information substitution function can only judge whether successful memory is in shortage or superfluous and then feeds back the result to right brain; after getting the result of non-stress same information substitution function, right brain raises a question as to which one is missing and which one is superfluous, and then left brain answers the question, and then right hindbrain gives an approval forming a complementary successful memory formed by the feedback of non-stress same information substitution function to assist the combined work of non-stress same information substitution function and export final result.
An example of the process of thought: someone asks me how much the tube is; the memory of 1yuan/meter is called creating stimulant sound 1yuan/meter (stimulant sound is the start of thought); right brain finds the problem that the price of 1yuan/meter is too low through thinking in images, and then suggests a higher price; left brain responds with a list of prices, 1.5yuan/meter, 2yuan/meter, 3yuan/meter……every number listed by left brain is monitored and responded by right brain; when left brain suggests “1.5yuan/meter, right brain answers “do”, and then left brain records the “do” for 1.5yuan/meter; when left brain suggests “2yuan/meter”, right brain answers “do”, and then left brain records the “do” for 2yuan/meter; when left brain suggests “3yuan/meter”, right brain answers “don’t”, and then right brain forgets the 3yuan/meter rapidly after receiving the “don’t” information from left brain; then the successful memory of 1.5yuan/meter and 2yuan/meter is called; then non-stress same information substitution function distinguishes the 1.5yuan/meter and 2yuan/meter and then provides the evaluation about the quantity; when one is more than the other, this evaluation is spoken out by sound simulation function, and then right brain creates the question about which one should be deleted according to the feedback from non-stress same information substitution function; left brain works by abstract thinking and figures out 1.5yuan/meter is less than 2yuan/meter, and suggests deleting 1.5yuan/meter; right brain approves the answer of left brain; after the approval of right brain, a complementary successful information basic on the feedback of non-stress same information substitution function is formed; at this time, result comes out with speaking “2yuan/meter” in reality.
Human thinking model and mechanism of artificial intelligence simulation: all visual information only includes shape and color while successful information is no more than a question and answer. Question and color create an index while answer and shape create another index. In the language of artificial intelligence, goal of thinking and mission are translated into 3D figure; question is translated into plane images of all angles according to the 3D figure while answer is translated into information of shape according to plane images. Right brain questions, left brain correctly answers, right brain approves, and successful memory is formed. To be simple, formation of successful memory is the process of information of shape and color creating a new image by combination. Specific process is: right brain draws an image of one angle with information of color, left brain creates information of shape basic on this image, the information of shape in left brain and biological clock work together to form a 3D motion scene of shape information, and right brain directs the position of 3D motion of shape information; when the position of 3D space is determined by right brain, after simply adding color to it, a plane image of another angle is formed which is a successful memory. Afterward, information of shape is formed basic on this image as a start point, together with information of 3D motion, and then a new position for 3D space of shape information is determined, after simply adding color, a new image comes out again. This process is repeated to form end point of thinking----for each plane image of each angle, non-stress same information substitution function assemble each plane image into a 3D image. Non-stress same information substitution function uses simulant sound function to feed back the information about the lack of image or superabundance to right brain, and right hindbrain questions which image is in shortage and which one is superfluous, and then left brain answers by adding or deleting image. At last, a 3D figure comes out. Process of thinking can be completely regarded as the process of creating a new image by the information of shape and color.
The thinking of artificial intelligence is realized by a dual CPU. No.1 CPU charges information treatment while No.2 CPU charges information supervision; No.2 CPU is responsible to discover a problem in visual information and create a question. No.1 CPU is responsible to answer the question of No.2 CPU. Like that, self-judgment and learning is realized. Information of shape is processed by No.1 CPU and information of color is processed by No.2 CPU. To perform a mission, insert a U disk which stores 3D images, and then turn on video input, and then computer starts seeking for the video information which is fit for the target information in the U disk. It runs according to the model of human thought. As one mission is associated with one mission U disk, it is necessary to insert different U disks to change the mission of robot.]]> leafzuo AnxietySun, 19 Apr 2009 01:33:51 -0700 http://www.selfhelpmagazine.com/phorum/read.php?69,116467,116467#msg-116467 http://www.selfhelpmagazine.com/phorum/read.php?69,116467,116467#msg-116467Supervision-control function, left brain charges the processing of information and right brain is in charge of the supervision of information; right brain is responsible to discover a problem from visual information and embody the question while left brain is responsible to provide a solution to the question created by right brain.

An example of the process of thought: someone asks me how much the tube is; the memory of 1yuan/meter is called creating stimulant sound 1yuan/meter (stimulant sound is the start of thought); right brain finds the problem that the price of 1yuan/meter is too low through thinking in images, and then suggests a higher price; left brain responds with a list of prices, 1.5yuan/meter, 2yuan/meter, 3yuan/meter……every number listed by left brain is monitored and responded by right brain; when left brain suggests “1.5yuan/meter, right brain answers “do”, and then left brain records the “do” for 1.5yuan/meter; when left brain suggests “2yuan/meter”, right brain answers “do”, and then left brain records the “do” for 2yuan/meter; when left brain suggests “3yuan/meter”, right brain answers “don’t”, and then right brain forgets the 3yuan/meter rapidly after receiving the “don’t” information from left brain; then the successful memory of 1.5yuan/meter and 2yuan/meter is called; then non-stress same information substitution function distinguishes the 1.5yuan/meter and 2yuan/meter and then provides the evaluation about the quantity; when one is more than the other, this evaluation is spoken out by sound simulation function, and then right brain creates the question about which one should be deleted according to the feedback from non-stress same information substitution function; left brain works by abstract thinking and figures out 1.5yuan/meter is less than 2yuan/meter, and suggests deleting 1.5yuan/meter; right brain approves the answer of left brain; after the approval of right brain, a complementary successful information basic on the feedback of non-stress same information substitution function is formed; at this time, result comes out with speaking “2yuan/meter” in reality.
Human thinking model and mechanism of artificial intelligence simulation: all visual information only includes shape and color while successful information is no more than a question and answer. Question and color create an index while answer and shape create another index. In the language of artificial intelligence, goal of thinking and mission are translated into 3D figure; question is translated into plane images of all angles according to the 3D figure while answer is translated into information of shape according to plane images. Right brain questions, left brain correctly answers, right brain approves, and successful memory is formed. To be simple, formation of successful memory is the process of information of shape and color creating a new image by combination. Specific process is: right brain draws an image of one angle with information of color, left brain creates information of shape basic on this image, the information of shape in left brain and biological clock work together to form a 3D motion scene of shape information, and right brain directs the position of 3D motion of shape information; when the position of 3D space is determined by right brain, after simply adding color to it, a plane image of another angle is formed which is a successful memory. Afterward, information of shape is formed basic on this image as a start point, together with information of 3D motion, and then a new position for 3D space of shape information is determined, after simply adding color, a new image comes out again. This process is repeated to form end point of thinking----for each plane image of each angle, non-stress same information substitution function assemble each plane image into a 3D image. Non-stress same information substitution function uses simulant sound function to feed back the information about the lack of image or superabundance to right brain, and right hindbrain questions which image is in shortage and which one is superfluous, and then left brain answers by adding or deleting image. At last, a 3D figure comes out. Process of thinking can be completely regarded as the process of creating a new image by the information of shape and color.
The thinking of artificial intelligence is realized by a dual CPU. No.1 CPU charges information treatment while No.2 CPU charges information supervision; No.2 CPU is responsible to discover a problem in visual information and create a question. No.1 CPU is responsible to answer the question of No.2 CPU. Like that, self-judgment and learning is realized. Information of shape is processed by No.1 CPU and information of color is processed by No.2 CPU. To perform a mission, insert a U disk which stores 3D images, and then turn on video input, and then computer starts seeking for the video information which is fit for the target information in the U disk. It runs according to the model of human thought. As one mission is associated with one mission U disk, it is necessary to insert different U disks to change the mission of robot.]]> leafzuo AnxietySun, 19 Apr 2009 01:32:41 -0700 http://www.selfhelpmagazine.com/phorum/read.php?69,116230,116230#msg-116230 http://www.selfhelpmagazine.com/phorum/read.php?69,116230,116230#msg-116230 tiredofeverything AnxietyWed, 15 Apr 2009 15:05:55 -0700 http://www.selfhelpmagazine.com/phorum/read.php?69,115894,115894#msg-115894 http://www.selfhelpmagazine.com/phorum/read.php?69,115894,115894#msg-115894 markslater88 AnxietyFri, 17 Apr 2009 16:41:09 -0700 http://www.selfhelpmagazine.com/phorum/read.php?69,115623,115623#msg-115623 http://www.selfhelpmagazine.com/phorum/read.php?69,115623,115623#msg-115623i am being abused by my family and most ppl are harsh and judgemental towards the sufferers.

For as long as i can remember, I have lied. About big stuff, small stuff, stuff that no one else even cares about, such as what flavour sandwich i ate for dinner, to the most stupidest lies, such as telling people i have a huge family, and keeping up this pretence to my closest friends, even to this day most of them think i have a twin sister.

I am not a sick bitch, and please dont start saying that, i am simply a 20 year old female, who admits that she needs help. This has been going on for long enough, i know i need to stop, but i just cant.

ive lost many MANY friends over the years because of it, i lost all respect at school and was bullied because of it, i dropped out of college due to the shame, and uni i got so stuck in my own lies, that i fell behind and had to withdraw.

I made a clean break with work in september 08, and moved away with work, the woman i was living with accepted all my lies, lapped them all up, it was only when she rang my mum to tell her i was in hospital, that my questioned the truth, and she was informed about everything i'd done. My mum told her more or less everything ive said to her since september is a complete lie, and she's asked me to leave now. So im back living with my mum, dad and little brother, who i am hurting more and more evey time it comes out i have lied again.

I know i am doing it, but i cannot stop myself, its like i have this NEED to lie, to try and make myself out to be someone i'm not. I hate the real person i am, and am kind of ashamed to be who i am, so i make things up to make my life seem more interesting, then i get found out, and more people hate me, which just makes me lie even more to get different people to like me if that makes sense. All i want is to be normal, like every other 20 year old, be happy, settle down in a job and maybe in a relationship, but at this moment in time, there is no possible way to do this.

I NEED HELP AND ADMIT IT, BUT I DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO!!!


ive seen councillors in the past, i pulled the wool over her eyes and pretended things werent as bad to start with, and then made out i wasnt doing it anymore after a couple of months, and when i was sent to the priory hospital for a psychiatric assessment with uni, i managed to dupe him as well, and ive also managed to con a mental health nurse into thinking there was nothing really wrong. All because im just too ashamed to come out and tell them the whole truth and the extent i have gone too, just to tell lies and back them up.

i hate myself more and more everytime i get found out, but it doesnt stop me. I dont want to still be doing this in say 2 years time, and thats why i need your help!!!]]> LiarLiarPantsOnFire AnxietyFri, 17 Apr 2009 17:08:33 -0700 http://www.selfhelpmagazine.com/phorum/read.php?69,115235,115235#msg-115235 http://www.selfhelpmagazine.com/phorum/read.php?69,115235,115235#msg-115235

I am new to the site. I am so depressed about my past and anxious about the future. I recently lost my job, relationship, and I feel so lonely. I have friends but I have no one to connect with regarding the adversities that I am going through right now. I've noticed that I have been unhappy with myself for quite a few years now and to be honest I don't think I have ever been happy with myself. I am 32 yr old male and I feel like such a failure. I am shy, I don't feel like a man. I feel like a little boy without any direction in life, I don't know what I like, I don't even have the self love to take care of myself. I know what I need to do in order to change my life but I don't have the motivation or drive to do so. I worry about my health and dying at an early age because recently I have been smoking about 1 pack a day. I stay away from alcohol, because I know that's not the answer and it will exacerbate my stress. I am coming out of a relationship that should have ended years ago and stood in it knowing quite well that the person I was with was not attracted to me. She loved me but was not in love with me and I knew she was dating other people and I would go back to her after she had broken up with whoever she was dating at that time. We have a child together and I have another daughter from a previous relationship. I know I brought this situation onto myself. It's clear to me that I did. I have been a weak person all my life and I have never established any boundaries in the relationship or anyone else. I have let people take advantage of me. These past 32 years of my life have led me to the situation that I am in. At times I am strong and willing to do what needs to be done in order to get myself out of this hole but a few minutes later I am back to being this weak person. I have deep self-esteem issues and I have no confidence in myself whatsoever. Eventhough, it might take finding a job or meeting another woman to make me feel better and gain confidence about myself, but I've had these things in my life and I was still insecure. I just want to be happy with myself. I know if I learn how to love myself that I can get whatever I want and to start loving myself I have to quit smoking, start exercising and caring about myself, set goals and accomplishing them and I will gain the confidence and ultimately learn to fight for my rights as a person and a man, but I just don't have the motivation. I am beginning to think that I am just lazy.

I am thinking that if I write a bit, I will feel a bit better and snap out of anxious mode. I HATE anxious mode.

Work related I think. There is an opening at my work for a promotion. Application is due on Monday. I have 2/3 of it done. I am pretty good at writing applications - I get the drill and write well. Tomorrow, Friday I have the day off, to go camping with my boyfriend. We are just going away one night. To a beautiful national park. We will hike, grill burgers, eat smores, go horseback riding. All great stuff. And my boyfriend is just a plain old nice guy, fun to be around.

Still, oh my gosh, I am stressing out!!! Ugh. I am worried about the job application. I will have all day Sunday to finish it - which is more than enough time. Sometimes too much time is not effective anyway - so I think having just Sunday to wrap it up is probably good.

But I am not liking me this week. I keep telling myself, Frances, you should have done the application by now. You should be smarter. You should be more qualified. Maybe you should not apply at all - maybe you are not good enough yet.

My boss suggested I apply. My co-worker told me that if I did not apply, I would be crazy and he would kick my @#$%&. :-)

What is the deal then? Why do I feel crappy and have butterflies and feel like I have to walk on eggshells to prove that I am good enough?!

I just want to be good enough, regardless. And to like me again. And to enjoy the camping trip. And eat smores and crack jokes with my yummy boyfriend. And to NOT FEEL YUCKY ANXIOUS.]]> Frances AnxietySat, 31 Jan 2009 15:23:50 -0800 http://www.selfhelpmagazine.com/phorum/read.php?69,113360,113360#msg-113360 http://www.selfhelpmagazine.com/phorum/read.php?69,113360,113360#msg-113360
I could put this under the other forum about childhood and parenting but I am putting it here because the event is causing me ANXIETY!!!:X

I have previously stated that my two of my kids just started living with their father. It was something I hoped would stop the controlling and manipulating behavior....NOT. So I talked BRIEFLY to my kids tonight. Just long enough for them to tell me that they were looking at Halloween costumes. Because it is my year to have them they want me to order their costumes. This is coming from an 11 and 12 year old. They also need me to order them early enough that they can take them BACK to their dad's house to wear them to school if the opportunity arises. They had the website along with the item numbers, gave me this info then said they needed to go watch a movie before bedtime. To top it off, I look at the items, and they come to a total of $70! For halloween costumes that are worn ONCE. Sorry but I have two other children as well, and I have never been able to afford to spend that kind of money on costumes. In addition, we are spending a ton in gas money to travel to the half way point so that I can see my kids twice a month. I would much rather the money go toward that than these costumes!

I hate being put in the position of "bad cop". Now I am going to have to tell the kids that I can't afford those costumes. I can only imagine what will be put in their heads now. I continually do what I can to keep the peace, but it just seems impossible. I know from past experience, that these are the types of things their stepmom does hoping to make me look bad and even hoping to send me over the edge. Well I won't be making her day! I guess I will just do what I have learned to be the best approach. Truth. We can't afford what they want so we will have to find other options.....hope that goes well :(]]> chronic1 AnxietySun, 29 Mar 2009 19:27:24 -0700 http://www.selfhelpmagazine.com/phorum/read.php?69,112814,112814#msg-112814 http://www.selfhelpmagazine.com/phorum/read.php?69,112814,112814#msg-112814
I actually don’t know where to begin. I’m one of those guys who keep everything bottled in and I’m starting to realise it isn’t healthy. I guess I should give you the basics… I’m 19 and I live in England. I’ve never had a “hard” life when it comes to money/family, all in all that’s gone pretty smoothly. I'm the youngest of 5, all who seem to have something worth my parents pride, and I don't feel like I have anything. I simply can’t shake the feeling of resentment for myself. I haven’t really accomplished anything in my life and I still don’t know what I want to do. I’ll break it up into sections:

My self-consciousness:
Ugh… I guess it all “started” out when I was younger. I was bullied at school and I started to eat quite a lot when I came in from school, I don’t know why I did. Since then, it became a habit… I was pretty tall throughout High school but I’d still call myself fat. I could never take my shirt off in P.E. and I’ve feel depressed all the time. I still think I’m fat these days and I’ve only recently managed to shake the eating. For about a month, I’ve been eating once every 24 hours and the worst thing is, if I tell anybody, due to the way I have lived my life it will just seem like a joke. I’ve almost portrayed myself as naïve and always happy but that isn’t the case at all; inside I’m wrapped with anxiety and pain. I sometimes consider if I have an eating disorder, but I could never talk to somebody about it. I have really problems expressing my feelings and therefore just choose not to. I hate the way I look and speak, I constantly feel ugly but I lack the motivation to change anything! I love my family, especially my Mother very much, yet I’ve only managed to tell her so, once in my lifetime. She knows I do, but I wish I could say it more. I always feel like I just sound weird when I express my feelings because I choke up, shake and become too emotional to continue. I have a certain chronic shyness that I will never be able to shake. I always feel that nothing I do is ever good enough... I have semi-OCD where everything has to be perfect, yet I doubt it will be, so therefore don't try it in the first place. I can't fail what I don't start, can I?

My loneliness:
If loneliness was a disease, I’d probably be diagnosed with it. I’m gay… and I’ve had 3 years to come to terms with my sexuality… online. All my family know and a lot of friends know but I can’t talk to them about it. Here is one of the biggest problems: I’m currently in between jobs/studying, all I do all day is surf the internet. I have “online friends” … I digress, I have an online life. I do some work for some communities (nothing like this one) and that’s all I do. I’m addicted to the internet and the protection it offers me through electricity and monitors. Nobody knows me online; I can be who I want to be. Because of this, I’ve never met anybody. I had a boyfriend in college but he cheated on me and it was a pretty poor experience. I’ve fallen for someone who lives 5 hours away from me that I met online and I know realistically it could never happen but I kid myself, and even after writing this will continue to kid myself. I spend all day on the computer, never going outside unless I have to. I’m so used to this I no longer like crowds or strangers. I tend to shy away or have anxiety attacks when surrounded by large groups of people. I NEVER go “clubbing” like any normal 19 may. I hate it. I sometimes stay awake for 36 hours at a time, 30 of those hours on my own, too depressed to go to sleep, too bored to do anything else. I also think I have a sleeping disorder, but who do I talk to about that? There is nobody. These are just a few of the reasons…

My health:
Lately, I’ve been collapsing. It started around Boxing Day when I woke up in hospital and had lost a couple hours of memory. The doctors said it could have been a heart palpitation and discharged me. After it happened again, my GP referred me to a neurologist and I’ve been having tests on my brain and I am seriously concerned about my health. I’ve tried to talk to my Mum about it and she tells me not to worry, but I do worry, and I can’t tell her I do in fear she won’t take me seriously… and I couldn’t handle not being taken seriously.

My anger:
I sometimes get angry at myself and keep it all bottled up, simmering away to a point where I could actually release and stab my arm with a fork or something, just to relieve the pent up stress and anger. I actually get headaches sometimes depending on my other emotions at the time. Yet, even as I write this I don’t want you to think I’m some idiot who is seeking attention because I’m not. I’m just a 19 year old boy who has nobody to turn to, well, nobody I FEEL I can turn to.

My feelings:
I would love to see a psychiatrist, love to share all my doubts and disgust towards myself with somebody I have never met and somebody I can really feel would listen to me, impartially but I can’t afford it myself so who do I ask for something like that? Even now, I only feel like I have touched the surface of my problems, and regret not posting anything that springs to mind as I turn my laptop off. I’ve considered suicide now and then. NOT because I’m sad or anything, simply because it would be an escape… an escape from the monotony that seems to be my life, as I can’t see any other ways of recovering from this excruciatingly large rut I am in. The only thing that stops me sometimes is the thought of breaking my mother’s heart. I could never tell anybody face to face that I’ve considered suicide because they wouldn’t believe me. I’m the “joker” in my friends circle… I make out like everything is fine when actually I’m near tears most of the time. Who could I tell? I feel like there is nobody and that is why I’m posting on here.

To conclude, even though I’ve only really clipped the tip of what feels like an iceberg of my thoughts, I almost feel a little more relaxed I’ve shared my problems in this way, regardless if people read it or not.

If you have any questions, I will try to answer as soon as possible (although who am I kidding? I’ll probably be online anyway EDIT: Even now, two hours later... I sit here, having achieved nothing... waiting for a reply)

It reminds me of another time, when I thought I was going crazy and babies were crying. The situation didn't seem real to me, but it was. I don't think I ever got over that day. There were many more days like this, but my mind and body became part of this nightmare.

In anxious times, keep a leash on your fearful aggression
and embolden your fearful avoidance.
If you don't get a handle on your anxiety,
it will manhandle you.

Fearful aggression is what every show dog trainer needs to train out of their dog if they want to win "Best in Show." It occurs when fear causes dogs to growl and bark. On the other hand fearful avoidance causes dogs to cower which is not going to win them any ribbons either.

Dogs are not the only living creatures that exhibit fearful aggression.

I remember a business owner I worked with who was transformed into a tyrant as his fear of missing out on an opportunity caused him to bully two key employees to the point of leaving, and guaranteeing that his company would lose that opportunity.

Fortuitously, his company had another opportunity within a year. After I helped him "manage his anxiety" by channeling it into focus, preparation and execution, he managed to bring in and inspire people to replace the ones he had lost…and he was able to seize this one instead of letting it get away.

One of the best way to manage your anxiety is to follow these steps at the beginning of each day when you're anxious:

1. Admit that you're anxious by saying to yourself, "I am anxious."
2. Accept that you're anxious by saying to yourself, "It's not something else, I'm anxious."
3. Just experience that you're anxious by saying to yourself, "I feel anxious."
4. But DON'T act on it, instead say to yourself, "Just breathe slowly and let it go."

NATIONAL DOG BITE PREVENTION WEEK—MAY 18-24
According to a survey conducted by the National Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, an estimated 4.7 million people are bitten by dogs annually, with 800,000 individuals—half of them children—requiring medical treatment. To help raise awareness of the issue, a resolution was introduced in Congress that recognizes National Dog Bite Prevention Week, May 18-24, 2008, and calls on communities to find local solutions to address the problem.

In an effort to help parents educate their children about basic safety around dogs, the ASPCA offers the following tips:

* Children should not approach, touch or play with any dog who is sleeping, eating or caring for puppies.
* Children should not pet unfamiliar dogs without asking permission from the dog’s guardian first. If the guardian says it is okay, the child should first let the dog sniff his closed hand.
* If a child sees a dog off-leash outside, he should tell an adult immediately.
* If a loose dog comes near a child, she should not run or scream. Instead, she should avoid eye contact with the animal and stand very still, like a tree, until the animal moves away.]]> Jimmy AnxietyFri, 16 May 2008 15:43:36 -0700 http://www.selfhelpmagazine.com/phorum/read.php?69,111713,111713#msg-111713 http://www.selfhelpmagazine.com/phorum/read.php?69,111713,111713#msg-111713 Care4UrMind AnxietyFri, 16 May 2008 15:52:48 -0700 http://www.selfhelpmagazine.com/phorum/read.php?69,111449,111449#msg-111449 http://www.selfhelpmagazine.com/phorum/read.php?69,111449,111449#msg-111449 brownie AnxietySun, 11 May 2008 13:21:19 -0700 http://www.selfhelpmagazine.com/phorum/read.php?69,111075,111075#msg-111075 http://www.selfhelpmagazine.com/phorum/read.php?69,111075,111075#msg-111075
Miss you very, very much and hope you are OK (that's putting it mildly - I pray and beg that you are OK). To the point of anxiety, which is why I posted here, among other places.

You are missed by many. And loved.]]> Dini AnxietyMon, 09 Jun 2008 07:26:03 -0700 http://www.selfhelpmagazine.com/phorum/read.php?69,110647,110647#msg-110647 http://www.selfhelpmagazine.com/phorum/read.php?69,110647,110647#msg-110647 lifewithoutme AnxietySun, 11 May 2008 13:27:06 -0700
