I feel confused on balancing my emotions. Because of the cervical spinal stenosis, I walk with a cane. I am 59 yo. Just now I became sad as I thought how my life has become. Then my "look for the silver lining" mentality kicked in and I remembered Alex my roommate at the physical rehab center...

I appreciate you sharing this with me!

THANK YOU!

Thank you! The stenosis has been a major element in the past four years of health hell which spurred on the trauma.

Thank you for sharing!

I am getting anxiety/panic attacks when doing simple tasks and needed activities. I've got panicky when preparing and eating lunch, and just this morning I couldn't complete my PT and OT exercises because of anxiety for the cervical spinal stenosis I suffer with Any thoughts why valued actions...

No your opinions are not stupid. Learning and practicing self-compassion/understanding has been a silver lining in this whole trauma ordeal for me, definitely helping with the healing. You too: go easy on yourself. Hugs.

Wow! Thank you so much for sharing yourself like that ❤️. The sleep/emotions thought is definitely to be considered. Hugs back to you!

I am sorry the week hasn't been good for you. Mine hasn't been the greatest either with the roller coaster of emotions, today being angry at the need to always be in my safe zone bed and anger at the trauma. I feel like I am being held hostage by which ever emotion greets me in the morning. I do...

Well said. I agree. 👍

So true about the thought and emotions connection. The other night I recalled my roommates from the physical rehab center I was in last year. One moaned a lot, another was a rude cancer patient, and another was a paraplegic. I got such intense nausea I twice thought I was going to throw up. I...

You're welcome!💙🙂

NOOOOOOO WORRIES! 😊I respect you and your decision. Just know that you are in my thoughts and prayers. The same goes for everyone, as we heal from our individual trauma(s),

You're welcome. You've been very concerned, kind, and helpful to me--I wanted to do the same for you. 🥰 Share as much or as little as you want. Or don't share. Whatever you feel comfortable with. Hugs back to you,

Thank you! This morning I was on the rollercoaster of confusion, sadness, and panic. I used the audio treatment and it either eliminated or greatly reduced the negative emotions. I am on quest to know why I get anxious/panicky before, during, and after simple activities like going downstairs to...

My therapist gave me the recording of the treatment modality session we did yesterday plus two separate modalities to work with. Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) is a structured program of psychotherapy with a strong educational component designed to provide skills for managing intense...

Thanks for the words and hugs.

I believe I received healing wisdom from Above. A pastor spoke of a negative mind filter. For example: 5 people at work said your presentation was terrific, and one coworker was less enthused. We concentrate on the negative review. What’s more popular in the news and on social media? Negative...

Wise words. Well said. THANK YOU! 💙

How do I balance emotions with a positive perspective? It's natural to feel sadness due to trauma. I attempt to lessen the overall pain with "it could be worse." I've seen worse: bed and chairs 2-3 deep in the ERs, and at the physical rehab I was at in the spring due to a stenosis-induced fall I...

Thank you for your reply and concern. It's a case of psychosomatic disorder. Thank God it's not another organic illness like hypertension or cancer,

I returned a little while ago from my primary doctor’s appointment to go over the tests and further discuss the nausea and stomach discomfort. I have a small hiatal hernia and my sodium is a bit low. I have reflux since 2006. I discussed with her that the majority of times I get nauseous is when...

Thank YOU! ♥️

Thank you. 🥰

I had the endoscopy done this morning and it's negative! No ulcer or cancer! They don't know the cause of the nausea. Prior tests showed it isn't H. pylori or gallstones. I am to stay on the anti-nausea medicine and will be seeing my primary doctor on Tuesday to further investigate. Now that...
