Lukas, I kind of think this is more along the lines of being a bit obsessive-compulsive. Can you try to resist this feeling and find some very intensive new hobbies that can take your focus from your face and put your focus and energy to better use. I am not trying to be mean but as you get...

John, I know of the deep despair of which you speak as I like you had thought of ending my life. However, it was not fear of God that kept me from doing it although that mattered too, but it was the fact I did not want to cause my family that never ending deep quenching hurt that comes from the...

Thank you so much for sharing because it makes me feel less alone. My heart goes out to each of you who suffered in your past part of life and I can only pray that you live in peace today. I am doing better but find I like being alone more then getting out and about with others. Sure I can smile...

Normally this does not bother me, but recently I had an experience that really scared me. I think I may have mentioned that I am allergic to most medications and only have a very few that I can take. Some I am flat out allergic too and others have side effects that really mess me up. Well I had...

I have such lumps too. They are a benign breast condition (such as a cyst or fibroadenoma), the last of which I have which is as the doctor said lumpy tissue. Please stop worrying about it. Certain times of the month can make them ache a bit but it is generally not cancer. If you have...

I am slowly getting things done. I have been spot cleaning and then backing off for a little while. Thanks for the encouragement and suggestions and that peaceful water fall.

Over this past weekend one of my best friend's died. It was a freak accident that happened out of the blue. One minute he was fine and the next minute he had fallen and hit his head on rock. I am still in shock. I am depressed and sad, lost and confused by it all. His family does not know why he...

I have recently taken over the care and upkeep of my home and at times I find it too be very stressful. It seems I get one thing taken care of and suddenly more things break down. Some things are on a dead-line needing to get done before winter while inside projects can wait a bit. My anxiety...

Just a thought, try sitting in your most comfortable chair and closing your eyes and see if any images pop into your head. Do not think of anything just sit quietly and look into the darkness and see if any type of picture plays in your mind. I recently saw a stairway with black curly handrails...

I watch on the news about all these young people either standing in the streets protesting or fighting in school, or even taking over their classrooms at collage fighting mostly for rights they already have yet do not use. Also wondering how their parents feel and why they are not working a...

Thanks for your reply. Every time of late when I think I have found someone willing to help out they either never show up or keep promising to help but never seem to have the time. So my new projects have ended up costing me a fortune as in hiring professionals that charge $50-$60 an hour. Minor...

We moved a lot when I was young and so landed in the last town when I was set to enter fourth grade. By that time the children were already well set with the in and out crowd. I was not born and raised in this town so I was in the out group. I was very shy and was picked on by many bullies and...

When I think of all the natural remedies that could or might help my anxiety I realize it all boils down to taking time for me. I spend all week rushing to get things done for other people and yet my needs get shoved to the back in my desire to do my job well or please other people, so by the...

I always feel like I am from another planet. I can at times fit in in group settings if I know a few people in the room that I can talk with or sit near so that I can feel a bit more comfortable about being there. I don't like loud noisy events where there is drinking or just loud rough talk, or...

I have had this treatment done and it does work in changing your way of thinking about an event in your life that has caused you mental stress. This could be any number of things that now cause you pain or anxiety, or fear whenever the subject comes back into your mind or focus. Here is a link...

Actually to my surprise i realized my symptoms were due to some medication I had been on for a while and suddenly my body decided it could not tolerate me taking it any longer. I had stopped taking it in order to take the anxiety medication which I ended up being allergic to and when I started...

Sometimes these types of symptoms can be caused by allergies to foods we eat. Some foods or lack of certain foods can cause many different symptoms that we would not expect or even think of when they crop up. I have tried low carb and high carb diet meals and have found that just watching what I...

Being in noisy crowds usually gives me a bad headache and anxiety, as I don't like it when someone is trying to talk with me and I can not understand or hear a word they are saying because of all the back ground noise. Most of the time I make a simple comment or just shake my head in agreement...

I have found that having routines can be a blessing, as at work where I do the same things every single day thus it lowers my anxiety and produces a calmer me. On the other hand having a routine at home can put you into a rut where you don't get much done and find yourself doing the same things...

I would suggest you find a job that requires very little contact with a boss or lots of other people who would be telling you what to do constantly. I found a part time job doing cleaning at our local community center. I go in and do the same job every day and know what I need to do to keep the...
