Hey Dave,
I don't know if you have an active stress
relief program going on in your life but
it sounds like that could really help you.
What do you do to relieve stress? What
calms your body and your mind?
I think that finding things/activities to
calm your mind and body are very necessary
here. Do you have a healthy and safe
avenue to relieve your stress and negative
emotions?
Deep breathing exercises could really
support your stress levels. I like to do
at least one deep breathing exercise daily
for about 20-30minutes where I limit my
mind activity and simply focus on
breathing in and out deeply. You'd be
surprised what that can do for your mind
and emotions.
Do you have someone to talk to regarding
your anger? It sounds like you could use
someone in your life who can brainstorm
proactive ways to move you past the
anger.
I hope that helps some,
Tyler9

Hi Dave,
Have you tried cbt? It is remarkable for
slowing your mind down and teaching you
how to learn to live in the present and
retrain your brain to reduce anxiety if
you work on the exercises. If you don't
want to see a therapist pick up a copy of
been there, done that? Do this! By sam
obitz and start doing the tea form
exercise in it. We used this book in my
cbt group. Take care and know you can get
better if you work on the cbt exercises.
The more you work on the exercises the
more relief you get. Good luck!
I feel horrible and stressed and couldn't
sleep peacefully and the heart keeps
pounding, all the time. It also makes me
lose focus and I can only frown all the
time. I didn't have that for about 5
years, and now it comes back.
I am avoiding anti-depression medicines as
I read about their side-effects.
The breathing exercises really help. Thank
you.
If there is a way to get rid of this
permanently I would be glad to know.
