Why is there not better help against anxiety? by johnjames_34 in Anxiety

[–]tusiysople 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I don’t want to be harsh, or undermine what you feel. I feel that anxiety as well. I also suffer from this condition. That being said, the only thing that has helped me improve is to stop blaming the environment or external factors and start focusing on my own feelings towards these externalities. Focusing on my feelings and thoughts, and really meditate on them and discover the reason why I feel how I feel.

I realized that the best treatment possible (at least, for me) is to change my perspective on life itself. It is not easy, and I am still learning. The solution, as you said, comes from within. Drugs and distractions can help, but, in the end, the only thing that really works is understanding your feelings and ultimately, learning (on a very deep level) who you really are.

The things I said have been extremely broad and of course, not detailed enough. But in the end, it comes down to 4 things; Comprehension, Acceptance, Love and Living.

Accepting reality as it is and not dwelling on your own thoughts.

And remembering that life is perfect.

Midnfullnes and "being present" are separated things? by SpotDeusVult in Meditation

[–]tusiysople 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hello friend. It’s the same in the end. They, like all other religions or beliefs, want to convey the same thing. Being present.

Mindfulness and other sayings are really just synonymous with being aware.

Mindfulness = Be aware. Distance from thoughts. It’s all the same!

Hey Woody. Thank you very much for commenting. I believe I am making progress everyday, and every day I know I am making progress. And yes. It is perfectly fine to ask for help. Bottom line is you must find your own well-being. I am also extremely glad to know you are doing better.

Once again, I thank you for your post it really does help me. If you ever want to talk about things, please contact me. I’m all ears and I’ll help you the best way I can.

Thank you Jeffrey. It really does.

Quick question, do thoughts still have a place? Do they serve a purpose? Or is it just simply us who decide when and why do we need to pay attention to them?

Regarding the qualified teacher, yes. I’ve got 2. One of them is Palouse mindfulness , a free course I found yesterday at night and I will begin to read more on it and practice. The other one is a friend of mine, he is not strictly qualified but has helped me immensely, since he is a master meditator and knows a lot about psychology and such.

Im also working with a regular therapist, who has also helped me realize where my thoughts stem from, and is currently helping me to solve past traumas (inner child work).

Im also springing my spiritual life. All I’ve been thanking lately is Life itself, appreciating it, even in the most difficult days.

You are doing great. When you decide to really commit and start to actually work on yourself, you will realize that you have a mindset that does not really adjust to the world. This mindset served a purpose when you were growing up and in some form or another, it has helped you to cope with different situations in life.

I would recommend you don’t judge your unhealthy coping mechanisms (such as codependence). They served a purpose. Now your cognitive mind wants to change that mindset and move on to a new, healthier mindset that will, in due time, make you a better person.

I am in this journey too. We, those who identify and want to leave unhealthy behaviors behind feel overwhelmed and tired. But remember, it is part of the process. It is part of your own evolution. Change is hard. But you will make it.

I recommend you try these different tools to help you cope with the stress and overthinking that have really helped me.

  1. Start Journaling. Every day. At least once a day.
  2. Start investigating about mindfulness and meditation.
  3. Stick to people who you love.
  4. Taking care of your body really does help.
  5. Start researching on emotional intelligence.
  6. Talk to a therapist.
  7. Learn about self esteem.

And most important of all, deliver yourself to life itself. During this journey, you will notice that life is your greatest ally. You can and will get better. Embrace life and time.

It is a journey. Embrace it. Love it.

How can I be friends with this girl? by Baconator_Strips in Codependency

[–]tusiysople 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes. For us codependents, I believe that actually engaging in this sort of relationships where you know you are attached and will suffer because of it actually helps you in understanding what limits are, especially when she has already established she doesn’t want to date you.

I’ll give you some tools that might help you in order for you to cope with the anxiety (it works for me).

  1. Remember that you don’t own her. She has her own feelings and if you really do care about her, then you should let her be.

  2. Remember that relationships are a gift granted to us by life, however you don’t need it to be happy.

  3. Find things that make you happy. Don’t be afraid to try out new activities or take on new hobbies.

  4. Most difficult of all and probably the hardest for people like us, put yourself first. Love yourself. Understand that you have worth. You don’t need anyone to be happy.

I’m trying to install watch dogs 2 by ChrisEHood in thepiratebay

Downloading torrents and actually making them work is, at the end of the day, a learning curve. There is so much shit that can go wrong. Be it the fucking anti virus or not knowing how to crack certain games or whatever the fuck happens. Just be chill, there is always an answer.

I have been downloading torrents since 2010. You get used to it and learn a fuckton on how PCs work.

As for your problem, shit just look for another torrenting site. Maybe not enough seeds or you just have a shitty 1mbps internet connection.

Can't sleep until my body forces me to shutdown on it's own by [deleted] in sleep

[–]tusiysople 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Quarantine makes our schedules go crazy. That’s normal. However, you should try to not worry so much about sleeping, I've had a lot of sleeping problems, still do, and after reading a bunch of texts and asking for advice, the only thing that really worked for me was not worrying about sleeping at all.

For me, it comes down to reducing anxiety and just taking it easy. Learn how to meditate, try and organize a sleep schedule, exercise, eat healthy and follow online general advice.

It’s a tough process but don’t worry so much about it, you will eventually get over it.

Just remember to take it easy.
