Every where I turn I hear bad news,and future worries. I just heard some more news,and I feel cold,emotionally scared,and tired of it all. I just feel stunned. I just don't know what will happen. I felt bad before,and I feel worse now. BF

I'm so sorry you have so many worries right now, BF.
I can relate because I've had a lot on my plate recently as well. I'm really trying to distract myself and take it day by day. Please hang in there! Kay |

Dear Steve
sending you a warm reassuring (((hug))) and safe vibes. sometimes i get into states where the world feels ominous, threatening... you sound similarly sensitive right now. when i'm like that outside stimuli, especially news.... that is supposed to "factual accounts" ... unfortunately a lot of news is sensationalistic and done in a way to keep us keep watching... they push our buttons on purpose. it sucks. and commercials ... same thing. i agree with bizi, don't watch tv right now. also what i would suggest is focusing on physical comfort. do all the five senses. - touch different things: -- pet your kitty cat. notice the softness of her fur. notice her breathing and warmth. -- touch a warm blanket. squeeze part of it in your hand and notice the give. notice the softness. -- touch a piece of wood or wooden furniture. notice the smoothness, or roughness of the wood, and any uneven spots in it. - taste -- sip water, or a some warm tea. eat a piece of bread. keep it simple. notice the wetness of the water, the texture of the bread, the taste, or lack of it. - look at things --- trees outside, maybe changing colors --- again your kitty cat... focus on her face, her eyes, ears. how graceful a kitty cat is. - hear things --- noice the creatures outside might be making --- the sound of the heating system if it is on --- the sound of the wind or rain - smell --- a mild piece of soap or bubble bath, shampoo --- spices... pick one that you like. cinnamon? --- the pages an old book. these have a peculiar, old, strangely comforting smell. like something that is and always will be. FINALLY: wrap your arms around yourself, and squeeze. right - give yourself a hug. feel the safety of a hug. consider it on all of our behalf. check in from time to time, when you can. and remember to breathe gently. ~ waves ~ Last edited by waves; 11-10-2010 at 05:00 PM. |

I had that heavy fealing in the upper part of my stomach area,and it radiated toward my upper left body area. Then I felt a little better. Then I suddenly felt just absolute torment in my mind. That's where I am now,but it's gotten a little better. The news was the trigger,and I'm going to bypass the news tonight.
I thank you all for the advise. I'm going back to read the advise that you all gave me. This condition is not easy to explain. I thank you all for the comfort,and advise. BF |

The world in general can be a scarry place. reach out as you are doing. There is still alot of good people who really do care. We just don't hear on the TV some of the good stuff. Its often just a few minutes at the end of news show if that. We need a good news station, to keep re-affiriming our humanity. There are good souls in this site to help with the worry. Be good to yourself, even when things look bleak.

You can't find any real news anymore. It's all editorials or scare tactics to get ratings.
Even the local news isn't safe for everyone. I love the 10-second commercials they run during prime time, "this ordinary thing can kill you... find out what it is at 11!" |
