When you have aches and pains how do you not treat that as an emergency? That’s what gets me. When I have an ache or pain…. Please help me understand!!!
Love your insight and how true! I have noticed in my journey it gets easier not to react to the symptoms and fear. It takes time work and self talk. Learning to be a friend to yourself accepting and compassion is important. I talk to myself as I would to a friend experiencing anxiety. Love you Big Guy.
This was amazing, it’s like you read my mind… so needed this I’m keeping handy as a reminder in those moments when I “feel” like I can’t…..thank you SO much!
Love this . Somehow I have become very attached to every sensation and feeling in my body , and notice every change ! I’m too tired ? I ache too much ? I feel dizzy ? My ears are ringing ? And it just always makes me worry something is wrong . What hasn’t helped me is I have had some serious life health events over my life , so of course , that sparks more anxiety of what if ?? I guess I still need to practice that SO WHAT ! Kind of thing ? Go with it , and let fate take its course ?
When you get good at letting fate take its course you get back to being better at recognizing actual emergencies. So you’re not throwing your hands up and choosing danger. You’re learning how to truly recognize it again.
I used to always tell my husband when I was feeling terrible, because I thought it was an emergency. Another thing that did was make me feel silly and embarrassed afterward! He’s super supportive and never tried to make me feel that way, but I would end up thinking “Oh… I did it again. I was hysterically explaining to him that I’m definitely losing my mind, but it turns out I’m fine again.” That happened over and over, and now I can remind myself of it when I feel like I should blurt out to somebody how I’m feeling.

Simon, I could have wrote your reply word by word. Thank you for making me NOT alone.

Giving that big shrug also, releases a lot of tension too. Say whatever when you do it might help. Thanks again Drew
