    I feel like there should always be a second example for more dysfunctional people. When the example involves checking emails daily and actually responding instead of thinking of needing to check email and then curling up in the fetal position instead, it’s not very relatable for people with more severe problems. It would be like giving an example about dealing with my anxiety and indecision over traveling on my yacht versus my private jet. Although, that example is actually more relatable because I can relate easily to being torn over two options. Can I relate to checking emails daily and even responding? No. Not at all.

Things seem to matter less and it feels like the thought zaps the good from the day and then I end up feeling distracted for a lot of the day. Im going to try a similar excersie of taking a few deep breaths and focusing on my physical body for a moment prior to getting out bed and giving myself permission to enjoy the time i have before clocking in instead of letting my thoughts about work affect my time even not at work.

      sounds good, people say that one difference between successful and un- cbt is felt sense, bodily connection , in a way this video's work is a very good place to work with and learn that, and handling feeling good. ....also, related but perhaps secondarily, ...ive heard that before cbt (real cbt) youre supposed to do a lot of work to find your issues in various subtle ways over time first, and then sort of test them with a middle stage body therapy like that EMDR(?) ciccade eye left-right thing, was once common. Before you submit those issues to the real cbt process. regardless, many put cbt as their modality, but few actually do it or lead up to it properly.

      Interpersonal strife with those close to us leads to rifts and resentments that produce symptoms of mental illness; these problems are, in fact, the logical consequence of troubled relationships.
      Glasser emphasizes that lasting psychological problems are usually caused by problems in our personal relationships (rather than signifying a biochemical abnormality in the brain), and distress can be remedied through repairing these relationships without recourse to psych drugs.

    The Buddha was ultimately right when all said and done 😉the intimate interplay of setting the wheels of cause and effect in motion underlies all of this. We are nothing but an accumulation of conditioning, patterns , and habits all created by the unrolling of cause and effect….much of which was put into play when you were just too young and didn’t have the cognitive faculties to process needs (comfort , soothing , trust in caretaker , security , responsiveness and emotional attunement from/to caretaker) as an infant .
    Once you understand that, you’re free to transform /reprogram yourself. Personal growth

"In acceptance lies peace"... and I do think that's true... If we can learn to accept things/symptoms/fears etc instead of fighting against them, which takes energy then we lighten the load so to speak, and free ourselves to heal. I havnt mastered this yet BTW, but know I will feel better when I do. Same for you too I hope.

    It's almost like our mind is designed to make things worse once they are bad. For most people it is designed to perpetuate an endless cycle of pain. You would think we would be designed the opposite of that, but we are not. When things get bad, we worry more, and that makes things worse, which makes us worry more. I think the human mind is just a bad design. What you are teaching probably works in some people, but it is not the natural way of the ego/mind. You have to basically be Buddha or some other spiritual master to overcome the awful destructive nature of the human mind without extreme effort. Knowing that my mind is not designed to make me joyful or peaceful but rather is designed for me to be neurotic actually helps me ignore my mind, so maybe that is good to come to that realization. Otherwise I will continue to believe that worrying all of the time serves some type of useful purpose, and I will continue to listen to something that is designed to make sure I am never happy.

    However, I'm not sure what to do when things like back-to-back, intense headaches with hyperacusis flare up and pretty much take over my ability to think straight.
    I try not to react or focus on them too much; however, I find that the one-deep-breath technique falls short in helping me to retrain my limbic system in this case - and thus, they have become a trigger for anxiety and fixation.

      Ah yes, so many of our members experience this. Indeed, I did myself. This takes a bit of time and patience, but here's something that has helped so many. The night before, see yourself waking up and doing something slow and deliberate, e.g. getting out of bed slowly, taking a few deep conscious breaths, and gazing out the window. The next morning, as soon as you wake up, go physically go through the motions of what you saw yourself doing despite any feelings of anxiety that may arise. The key is to move through them, not resist them. In time, your brain and body will get the message that YOU are in control. And your anxiety may begin to come down on its own.

    Any training for a quick fix on insomnia????🥱I do not have anxiety...sleeping escapes me. Will only be asleep 2 hrs or less at a time. With gaps in between. Vexing.
