I Don't Want Stress, Anxiety and Depression
Nowadays especially in the 21st Century, it is predicted that
stress related illnesses such as anxiety and depression will
become the biggest killers to human being. Despite significant
advances in housing, standards of living, quality of food, and
medical science, the pressures all of us have to face in today's
world are as demanding as any pressures experienced by our
predecessors. Why are these illnesses on the rise? And why do
some people become so sick through these illnesses, they can
find it hard to function?
Well they sure don't happen overnight! You don't suddenly wake
up one morning and feel stressed or depressed. It is not like
flicking on a light switch! And by the same rule, if you're
suffering, you can't just wake up one morning, flick off the
switch and say am I feel better now? Many people who don't
suffer from these illnesses often say to sufferers.
If only it was so easy! Should anyone say this to you, please
forgive them as it's just a lack of understanding. It's very
hard for people to understand how you're feeling if they haven't
been reach the same level. The fact that these illnesses don't
suddenly happen means we can draw some parallels with illnesses
such as heart diseases, some cancers and strokes. Because these
illnesses don't just suddenly happen either.
If we look at heart disease, it's often the result of damaging
behaviors practised over many years. Behaviors such as smoking,
lack of exercise and a abnormal diet high in saturated fat.
Strokes are a result of similar behaviors and cancers too,
specially heavy smoking and drinking as you knew. So how do
stressful illnesses such as stress, depression and anxiety
compare to?
For many of us, feelings of distress remain constant companions:
About 19 million Americans suffer from serious anxiety
conditions like obsessive-compulsive disorder and social phobia,
reports the National Institute of Mental Health, while virtually
everyone else deals with less debilitating but still harmful
levels of anxiety.
Stress is also the product of harmful mental habits and
behaviors. These habits and behaviors are developed and
practised over years since childhood in most of the cases.
Think of it like learning to drive a car. Initially, the skills
required to control the vehicle needed conscious
thought. It
seemed really difficult didn't it? But once we're performed them
for sufficient periods, we drive as an auto-pilot. We're
mastered the required skills by repetition. Here're the key: if
we eat healthy food, take regular exercise, cut out harmful
behaviors such as smoking and drinking, we improve our health
and drastically reduce the risk of heart disease, cancer and
strokes. We are repeating good habits, habits that will give our
physical well being a huge boost. Here're the key: if we eat
healthy food, take regular exercise, cut out harmful behaviors
such as smoking and drinking, we improve our health and
drastically reduce the risk of heart disease, cancer and
strokes. We are repeating good habits, habits that will give our
physical well being a huge boost.
It's exactly the same for stress. What's important to understand
is that not everyone becomes stressed or depressed even when
tragic and traumatic circumstances happen to them. Just like
people who lead a healthy lifestyle and avoid harmful habits and
behaviors, people don't become stressed or depressed because
they have learned effective habits and behaviors that prevent
stress from arising.
This is very good news if you suffer from these illnesses.
Because just as we can learn habits and behaviors which cause us
to become highly-stressed, depressed or anxious, we can learn
the habits and behaviors which stop these terrible illnesses in
their tracks. And the more often we make use of them, we're soon
begin to perform them automatically and our mental health will
benefit tremendously.
No more feeling stressed out. No more feeling unable to deal
with somebody. No more anxiety and no more depression.
I'm living proof of this. For more than 5 years, different kind
of traumatic events sent me spiralling into an anxiety-induced
depression nightmare. I came out of it by learning the natural
skills that starve these illnesses. The more I used them, the
less anxious I became. They're now as natural to me as driving a
car, and I am completely eradicated anxiety and depression from
my life.
