anxiety

A look at anxiety in its many forms and manifestations; what is the nature of this specific pattern of extreme fear and worry?

Dark Feelings
Numb to the pain you look to the bright side, engulfed with jealousy when darkness laughs and you can't hide. People try to help while they are part of the cause, but the mind takes over as you forget to pause. Mental Illness is not fun and games, triggers can't be controlled but may be contained. Turn it off so no one can hear, the yelling from loved ones, that's in your ears. Emotions cause problems so throw them away, Let logic and pleasure be your guiding way. Noises of joy and love at your expense don't make you sick but damage your pathway. You think you want what others have, but maybe it's something you believe you will never have.

I live like an island of fear
The streets outside were muddy. The porch of the apartment was covered with dirty snow. Mr. Ivan is on his way back from Spring Festival shopping. He carried over his shoulder a large, bulging knit bag bearing the department store's call stamp. He stepped in from the foot of the wall, treading the felt, laboriously but gingerly. He didn't want the floor to get dirty.

A Night Out
‘Are we still on for tonight?’ The message popped up on my screen, and my stomach dropped. Plans which I had confirmed weeks ago, and now the day was here, I felt sick. Should I say no because I don’t want to go, but if I say no she’s going to be mad at me but she will be even madder at me if I go and I’m obviously not enjoying myself but I might enjoy myself if I go and have a good time but what if I don’t have a good time?

What happens to people who meditate every day?
To be honest, I have been meditating for more than half a year, and my previous stinky problems have been corrected a lot. If I get a new life, I also see more hope. Because many of the problems that plagued me have been gradually resolved, my whole person is not as "lost" as before, and I also begin to feel that I will strive for a better life if I work hard.

How can we have a strong and optimistic heart?
When we face difficulties and challenges, what we lack is not a serious attitude, but the spirit of letting go. Every time I am anxious, compared, blamed, miserable, inferior, dissatisfied with reality, or when I take one thing or a person too important, I will tell myself this,

Anxiety Can Not Always Be Seen
I have to speak out and make people aware of an issue that I recently come across. I know a young lady who is a mum and suffers from anxiety, especially when getting out and about.

The most luxurious thing these days is probably sleep
Human life has, by and large, been locked into a state of ceaseless continuity, the norm of which is perpetual motion. In this state, time no longer passes, outside clock time. Behind the empty buzzword, 24/7 marks a kind of static redundancy that denies connection to the rhythms and cycles of human life. It is meant to be an arbitrary uninflected schema, cut from complex, varied or precipitated experience. "24/365," for example, is completely different, because it implies a dull, undulating timeliness in which real change and the unexpected may occur. Many institutions in the developed world have been operating on a 24/7 basis for decades. It is only in recent years that our personal and social identities have been reshaped and reshaped to accommodate the constant workings of markets, information networks and other systems. The 24/7 environment dresses up as a social world, but it's really a typical machine world, a life stop that doesn't let the world know how much it costs to keep it functioning effectively. It must be distinguished from time as discussed by early 20th-century thinkers like Lukacs, the hollow, homogenous modernity of time in the form of measures or calendars that serve the functioning of the state, finance and industry, to the exclusion of individual hopes or plans. What is new is that this pretence is completely abandoned, that time is no longer tied to any long-term undertakings, and that even the illusion of "progress" or development is broken down. The 24/7 world, illuminated by day and night and removed from shadow, is the last illusion of post-capitalist history, with the otherness removed as the driving force of historical development.

7 Mental Strategies for Dealing with Anxiety
It's been a long time since I've seen someone with a low anxiety level in my life. Maybe because of this age, maybe because of this age, I don't know why, everyone seems to be out of breath. Yet while "depression" and "procrastination" have become almost buzzwords, "anxiety" hasn't been discussed much, for reasons we'll talk about later.
