Have we really come to the age when people are just not using voicemail anymore? If no one leaves a message I don't bother calling back. Voicemails mean it's important enough to call back. I'm not even understanding this fear of the phone phenomena. We used to not have caller ID. You'd answer the phone and if it was someone you didn't want to speak with you just hung up, and with a satisfying SLAM/CLANG

Every one of us has experienced anxiety at some point of our lives. Feeling uneasy or nervous, or worrying about something that may or may not happen in the future, can be a normal response to stress or danger, though if it starts to interfere with daily life, it can become problematic.

People who live with generalized anxiety disorder experience frequent anxiety for long period of time, be it a month or even a year. Anxiety also is the main symptom of panic disorder, social anxiety disorder, phobia-related disorders, and post-traumatic stress disorder.

Depression for me was feeling disconnected to life. It was not feeling like doing anything. I was trapped in a thick glass jar, watching everyone else being engaged with their lives. Also like seeing life in black and white. My depression was chronic and did not lift until I got on the correct medication. I'm alive again, the world is in color, I finally after so many, many years, know what happiness feels like!

fungible (often used when talking about goods, assets, or cash), just means that it is easily changed, exchanged, or mixed with other assets/securities/products. Nonfungible is just the opposite of that, so it is not easily replaced or modified. It's not a word you hear a lot outside of the context of financial products though.

I feel like it's because it's something we celebrate so much when we're young and sadly it slowly starts to just become another day. People don't remember it. No one around really says it and we move out in to the world where we don't tell people our birthday so no one knows when it is. I had a coworker turn 29 recently and he didn't even know that. He thought he was still 28, forgot his own bday. It's sad.

Yup, I only got wished happy birthday this year by the passport checker at airport security. My family, who were right next to me, didn’t even take the cue from that. No one said anything the 5 years before that either. I’ve have had panic attacks on the instances people did know and ignored the no acknowledgement rule, including when loveliest person on earth tried to do a lovely dinner with them, which I acquiesced to, but invited an old friend as a surprise. That lead to me deliberately hiding my birthday from friends and colleagues for the last 15 years because it makes it easier on me. I have no grudges against anyone who celebrates and fully participate in their days, even proactively and always happily, but mine don’t exist far as I’m concerned.

There are a few things that can help control anxiety, despite the fact that everyone experiences it differently. Therapy, such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), which teaches people how to control anxious thoughts and behaviors, is one of the most efficient strategies to lessen anxiety. Antidepressants and anti-anxiety medications, for example, can help manage anxiety symptoms.

Self-care approaches including exercise, mindfulness, and relaxation methods can be beneficial in managing anxiety in addition to treatment and medication. It's critical to give self-care first priority and schedule downtime for rest and renewal. It can also be beneficial to create a strong network of family and friends who can offer sympathy and understanding.

Serotonin is a chemical in the brain that makes you happy. Like if you see a dog: serotonin. Eats chocolate: serotonin. More serotonin=happier person. I also learned in Health class that if you abuse a drug that gives you pleasure, it will cause your serotonin levels to decrease after a long period of time, because the drug doesn't have the same effect as it did the first few times you used it. Basically, don't abuse drugs or it can lead to not a very happy life.

Another helpful approach for overcoming anxiety is humor. Making light of a problem and laughing at it can help ease tension and give a momentary diversion from nervous sensations and thoughts. In fact, comedy has been proven to improve mental health, including easing anxiety and depressive symptoms.

Though it is important to understand that humor shouldn't take the place of qualified treatment for anxiety problems. Even though it can be useful in the moment, comedy is not a long-term fix and doesn't deal with the underlying reasons for anxiety.

RafCo (he/him/ele) 2 years ago

I think trauma and the process of recovery changes you. Stronger/weaker, are just words. I will say that I remember how afraid my son was by situations I would have considered an ordinary amount of stress. But it occurred to me that he didn't grow up the way I grew up. He had never seen anybody get shot or stabbed. Nobody he knew was ever kidnapped or tortured. His baseline for normal is just fundamentally different than mine. I am glad about this, he has been safe his whole life. But on the flip side, he gets really stressed about situations that I am not bothered by. He is afraid of falling while playing sports, because he might see blood. I am terrified of police because I've seen them kill people. Which of us is "stronger"? I'd say neither, we just have different experiences.

There are way too many variables in the trauma, the person, and the definition of recovery for any blanket statements to be valid. Often when "you" is used in this context, it really means "me" or a desired outcome.

i can't stand that saying "what doesn't kill you, makes you stronger." and my mom always telling me how "strong of a women" I am just because I had a bad relationship and kicked him out. What she refuses to comprehend and accept is that I'm a very timid, confused, easily picked on person who just wants to hide away somewhere because of how she has mentally and emotionally manipulated me growing up. I'm not a strong person. I'm just getting by enough to tolerate being in society.

I see the comment about recovering and give this - you don't really recover. You learn how to live with it. You learn that even though you may always be afraid, you need to live, and you can't let it control you. But you still have it. It's there, always. What you need to learn is to let it be there, and still live your life.

Moreover, humor can be employed in a dismissive or inappropriate manner toward people who are anxious. Making fun of someone's nervousness or making jokes about it can be upsetting and leave the recipient feeling invalidated or devalued.

Despite the fact that comedy can be a helpful coping mechanism for anxiety, it's crucial to use it in a courteous and acceptable manner.

I had to complete a huge questionnaire once, in a roomful of similarly afflicted individuals. I scored something like 350, another guy scored almost the same. The rest of the guys were ushered out of the room and we two were left. We just looked at each other and assumed we were going to just get sent home..... Nope, we were each assigned our very own military psychiatrist and never saw each other again. I was put on medical leave for six months and I had to go see the doctor every week.... Apparently the other guys were just a bit stressed, we, on the other hand were clinically depressed and had PTSD. We were both laughing at how wrong we were and thought we were fine.

Me too. Luckily almost everyone I care about gets it. Friends send WhatsApps when they can happily wait for reply knowing I turn off WiFi most of the day. If they really do need quicker response, send a text. They rarely text, it's for emergencies. Calls are only for use if pre arranged, and then I make the call when I'm ready. Big exception to this is my mother. If she wants to talk, she wants to talk NOW. I don't even know how she manages to call my phone, my landline, text, email, and WhatsApp at the same time repeatedly in the knowledge that it will stress me enough to pick up. She knows it will stress me, but that is apparently something she is sure I will get over if I try - I'm in my late 40's, and I have always been this way. I have tried turning everything off, but then she starts on my husband (she used to go for neighbours and friends too, but she no longer has numbers). She was the same with her brother, and has no way of understanding people with ASD can not just turn it

This explains a lot.... I was in Iraq (for the 1st time anyways) back in late 2003-early 2005. Anyways, while I was there at the camp PX I bought the DVD's for the first season of Futurama. I fell in love with the show and it became a "comfort" show to me; if I had a bad day I would pop a DVD into my laptop and watch episodes until I drifted off to sleep. That has been my nightly routine for 20 years now. It is RARE for me to watch something new. I have watched each episode of the entire series so many times I can simply close my eyes listening to the dialogue and drift off to sleep. While it doesn't always prevent bad dreams, it at least gives me a fighting chance.

Still, my brain fully glitched and when I figured out what I'd done, I couldn't help but laugh at myself.

That's why we are supposed to focus on something other than what's being blasted at us by the media etc. There are plenty of other worlds out there. Just find a different one and tune out the one that says you're not good enough and that everything is going to c**p. What's going to happen is going to happen and hardly any of us can do anything about it. Your therapist is right. Be present in your heart, not what's going on "out there". And the past is gone so let everything in it go and don't focus too much on the future because you could get ran over by a truck tomorrow. So being present in yourself and what you're doing in every moment is your best bet :)

I had no idea others did this too until a few years ago. It was my deep dark secret because I thought I was broken. I'd say it's a coping mechanism mostly for boredom and insomnia for me.

I always used to think things like that. I didn’t have a career per se, just mundane jobs, but I worked from age 16 to 66 and now I’m old I am so resentful of a life spent slogging my guts out just to survive.

Any advice for someone who is feeling that way now? I'm 43. I hate my job but I don't think I'd necessarily like any job, honestly. But I might just feel that way because of the types of jobs I've always had. I've never quite known what I wanted to do so I've always done mundane or frustrating customer service jobs. But I just feel like I'm missing out on so much of my life. What would you have changed if you could go back?

I'm right there with you! I worked from 15 to 65 and I absolutely resent all that lost time. The only thing that gets me through it now is just saying to myself f-it, nothing I can do about it now. Doesn't solve it but makes it bearable.

If I could go back I wouldn't change anything. It was the best decision at the time. After the AIr Force every job after that was mundane. I never knew what I wanted to do either so I took jobs that didn't work weekends and were indoors. My job was not part of my personality. The pandemic and the last president changed everything, how we live our lives and people got different and some jumped on the crazy train. So Kate, what are you missing out on? When I asked myself that I realized - not much.

I had a dream where I went back to highschool, but this time I was a grown adult who didn't have to give a damn about my marks or what any of the teachers had to say, and none of the bullies could do anything to me. In fact kids started coming to me for protection against the bullies. Then I turned into Lobo the death wolf from Puss in Boots 2 and single-handedly stormed an evil villain's castle. After all her goons and booby traps couldn't do a thing to stop me she finally gave up and handed over the jewelled dagger I was after just to get rid of me. BEST DREAM EVER.

I bought a Bluetooth speaker for my shower. Now my shower thoughts are about Spotify, not about every embarrassing moment since second grade.

I always find shower cleansing, like a ritual when I'm upset. It helps wash it all away

The way I avoid that is singing as high and loud as I can, and try to convince myself that I would win awards for my performance. This is the only way to not have the brain capacity to think about embarrassing stuff

What a stupid question to ask when the world hasn't even been stable in the last 3 years. Ask them to tell you what the economy looks like in 5 years in their made-up scenario before you can answer.

I've been working from home for two years now and in that time, I have gone from walking up an hour early to make breakfast and get ready for the day, to now just waking up with enough time to walk to my computer and getting the immediate stuff done, then taking a moment to pour cereal, then eat while I work, just so I can get a few more minutes of sleep or laying in bed.

I've been trying out, "Did anything interesting happen today?" I've been experimenting on ways to phrase it so that the person feels like they actually want to talk a little bit. When you just ask someone, "How was your day?", or generically ask them how they are, they just say "fine" whether they are or not, and that's the end of a pointless conversation. It's interesting what a difference it makes just to word the question differently. "Tell me about your day," usually works pretty well, too.
