Relief now for stress, anxiety, depression, post traumatic stress and grief
Some of us can suffer one or the other, or both anxiety and depression. It can be very pronounced, feeling like you might jump out of your skin, or like the world is just falling apart, or, it may feel more like just an underlying feeling of discomfort, sadness or nervousness. Or, you may have times of very high energy, for no apparent reason, that last longer than anyone else you know.
 Generalized anxiety can be a feeling of edginess, or high anxiety for no apparent reason.
Social anxiety may be a feeling that someone is judging you, even though they don’t say anything. It can cause you to avoid situations or live a lifestyle that may not suit you.
Grief and illness – Maybe you are very sick, or maybe a loved one is going through something that affects you deeply, such as catastrophic illness or death. You may be feeling more tired, hopeless, angry or maybe the world has lost its color.
Mild depression may make you feel like there is a sadness that it is hard to get rid of. It may come and go. There may be a reason, or a few, or maybe no apparent reason. It can be confusing. You may feel tired or even a little sick.
Deep depression may bring a feeling of numbness, hopelessness or recklessness. You may feel exhausted. It is not, however, hopeless!
Relief is possible.
Most of us have a few remnants of more some stress and trauma from the past. Some people have severe trauma or stress they have lived through at some point. We may have had a reaction to that trauma or stress that was, at the time, a reasonable reaction. However, in some cases, the original reaction to trauma causes or creates a pattern of physical or emotional reaction to present situations that may be out of proportion to the actual current event. It continues to happen now. At the least severe, it can be annoying or frustrating. Sometimes it seems to get worse. At its most severe, it can be debilitating.
For example, Joanne B, age 40, was in an auto accident when she was six years old. She was not injured in the accident, but was shaken up badly and the car had to be towed. After the accident, she began feeling sick to her stomach in the car whenever she was on the same highway. As she got older, in her 20’s until the present, the sickness has increased and spread to places other than driving on the original highway. The only way she feels okay is if she is driving, but can hardly get in a car when someone else drives. It gets in her way of having a normal life, though most of the time she can compensate. This is causing her to have stress and anxiety, far beyond the original situation. Joanne B has post-traumatic stress, and is a good candidate to understand the root cause in order to put it back in perspective and to relieve the symptoms permanently.
