Stress Relief and Management
Stress relief and stress management techniques will will affect your physical and mental health. These modern times are becoming increasingly stressful for everyone from college students to those trying to cope with the everyday struggles of life.
- I used to have panic attacks. In college, I ended up in the ER with what I thought was a heart attack. It was a panic attack. I learned how to control it without drugs.
- I have been plagued with insomnia since I can remember. I stressed about everything. Even if there was nothing to stress about, I would find something. Imagine how bad it got when there were things to stress out about! I learned how to control all of these problems without drugs.
- Later in my late 20's, I was diagnosed with Manic Depression. These days they call it Bipolar. I have been free of the symptoms for over 20 years - and have never touched lithium or any of the other drugs they prescribed for me.
- You might think the "mental illness" and stress are not related - but they are. There are real physical reasons for both of these.
Mental health and stress are entwined. In fact, under times of extreme stress many people feel "insane" or like they are about to "lose it." Stress can lead to clinical depression, anxiety, nervousness, fear, irritability, and decrease in concentration, indecisiveness, mind racing or your mind going blank. This may even be diagnosed as ADD, ADHD or Obsessive Compulsive Disorder.Because of this family history and my own experience, I have been researching the area of alternative mental health for years. I have learned a lot and have seen clients with these issues transform right before my eyes. It may have taken a few months or even a year or so - but they ended up happy, drug free and in control of their own destiny. I believe we all have this ability to control our lives.
