Check out Echart Tolle. The Power of Now.
In particular listen to Findhorn Retreat.
Ask yourself,"What's the problem now.".
Not tomorrows' problem, but what the problem that exists right now. Chances are that you are not in imminent peril.

@Tastyfrzz Thank you. I am going to check them out. Anything that may help is a welcome idea so appreciate it.

Take a breathe. Take pauses. Write on a paper with red letters Pause Is Good ,
Begin by creating small uncluttered spaces
A. Time spaces like taking a breathe before the next sentence
B. Actual spaces in your physical environment. Declutter a drawer or make space for a yoga mat or prayer space or altar or just open a window
C. Begin a guided meditation from youtube, so to create some empty head spaces. Anything you will find will help you

I'm sorry I can't offer anything other than that. You're going through a transformation perhaps...

@rawandauthentic I trust you'll find what is best for you... perhaps a walk in the forest too..I will try that..:)
rawandauthentic · 46-50, F
@being I would love to have someone to walk with. But it's a great idea!!
being · 36-40, F
@rawandauthentic yep me too...

Letting out your feelings & putting your thoughts on paper with a pen can be incredibly therapeutic. It allows you to process and release what’s on your mind.
Also, relaxation videos like this really make a difference for me.

Wishing you peace of mind 🕊
@Nunki Where have you been with your cheery attitude? We need it here, lady. 😤🤗

Life likes to kidnap me sometimes haha
Thank you 🫶🏼🤗@SinlessOnslaught
@Nunki Always good to see you. 🤗
It's great that you're writing your emotions down. It's also great that you recognize and want to feel the good emotions. You are open to the great feelings and that's wonderful. Being cautious wirh your guard up isn't a bad thing, but don't bring on the bad things by putting them into motion by convincing yourself the bad is going to come.

That's called anticipatory anxiety. Making things bad and creating roadblocks in advance. It's all self-generated. You don't need pills. But you might want to get with a therapist who will give you plan to stop the thinking as soon as it surfaces. Then it becomes a habit. Good luck.

@Ynotisay i actually have a therapist appt today and will talk it over with her. Thank you for giving me a name for it as it makes it easier to talk about. I can live with a habit rather than the impending doom I usually feel

Have some concern for genuine readers... Take some time to edit your post after pouring out all you got. I am sure you may also not want to read if you have received such a clutter by email.

Use spacings and paragraph liberally.

You may yourself not want to write so much if you edit before posting.
rawandauthentic · 46-50, F
@in10RjFox I am writing for myself, and if anyone wants to read, they are more than welcome to, but reading my posts is not obligatory. I am very happy with what have achieved for myself by getting all of that off my chest.
in10RjFox · M
@rawandauthentic then put a warning in the first paragraph that you are writing for yourself. Why you want to write in public if you want to write for yourself.

It's similar to peeing in public just to get things of your bladder.
rawandauthentic · 46-50, F
@in10RjFox I don't feel I need to explain my reasons to you. And stop telling me what to do.

Logging on to social media is a good start.
rawandauthentic · 46-50, F
@SmileOnYourBrother I don't have social media and that's a deliberate choice. I only do SW and so far so good, but I find social media kinda intrusive and limiting. I know loads of people get something from it, so not judging, but not my thing.
@rawandauthentic Similar Worlds IS social media.
rawandauthentic · 46-50, F
@SmileOnYourBrother I know, that's why I said only SW atm. Sorry maybe I shouldn't have abbreviated it but yeh I meant Similar Worlds. I like the autonomy to a certain degree.

I wish I knew -- I'd get a lot more sleep if it could shut mine down.
rawandauthentic · 46-50, F
@MrSmooTh It gives me anxiety sometimes and I green out so it's a bit risky for me.
rawandauthentic · 46-50, F
@MrSmooTh I've heard LSD can work wonders for the way the brain thinks but im not game enough to try
nobodyishome · 31-35, F
close your eyes and breathe. Or take pills.
nobodyishome · 31-35, F
@rawandauthentic Pills really work. I tried as well. They work, trust me.
rawandauthentic · 46-50, F
@nobodyishome They do work..but i don't like the other things they take from me.
nobodyishome · 31-35, F
@rawandauthentic I understand.
SW-User
Read Book of Psalms. Psalter chases them away. The only thing that helped me when they we’re driving me nuts
