yes,...the snowball effects.
Current situations triggers simular feelings from the past.
Current situation rolls down hill as a small snowball....picking up more snow.
As the snowball gets bigger it split into 2 snowballs....Feelings from the past acts like a second snowball.
These are some tools and copping skills that was pasted on to me in recovery and therapy.
My emotions were all over the place when going through withdraws...
I have to learn how to RESPOND instead of reacting in my old ways or unheallthy behaviors.
This too shall pass. (our feelings will pass...the negatives...even the good ones too)
I can start my day over anytime I want.
Staying in the moment....my pains and suffernings comes from my past or future ( my head).
Suffering is simply reliving the same pains over and over again.
How do we relive it over and over again????. By thinking and talking about it over and over again.
Sometimes you just gatta let it go...the more we try to figure it out or psycho annolize it...it's just feeding the fire.
The sedona methdoe gose exstensiving into teaching you how to let go without figure it out.
I had ptsd...it was very benificial to me. I still use it often.
It's just some mp3 files with an instructor or a guide that walks me through the process of letting go.
The more i practice doing it...the eaier it gets for me...I simply let go throughpout my days as i catch myself trying to figure honeysuckle out.
Some people use..."let go and let god"
Even that too complicated for me...becuase i wanna figure out god and everything.
Just let go...it's like a release and releifs.
I also use the tapping methode...it helps me.
Sometimes I use the tension and relax techinque....Plus breathing.
Take a deep breath and tighten up all my muscels...a firm grip, my toes strectch....ect (hold for 3-5 sec).
Breathe out and relax all my muscel...
5 to 10 reps will usually get me in a mellow calm relax state.
vitimins B5 and B 12 also helps promote good moods.
Magnizism also helps lower anxieties....
Maybe your blood sugar level dropped???
I know when I dont eat right or healthy, my mood gets effected.
HALT...is also another recovery tool..
Dont get too HUNGERY, ANGER, LONELY or TIRED.
Most of the time...when I feel like honeysuckle. I didnt eat right to start off my day...
then I react for not being in a good mood or sometimes small things bothers me.
I was simply irrable becuase i didnt eat.
For the past couple of years Ive been proactively triggering my own positve good feelings.....
Feeling comes from within us....outside situations simply trigger feelings we have within us already.
So to wait for only good things to happen on the outside or for other people to act right...isnt the best way to go about life.
Im not my feelings...I have feelings.
I simply allow myself to feel good...Sometimes just having positive thoughts
