Just trying to manage the stress

Trying to eat, sleep right and deal with thoughts (paranoia, intrusive thoughts) and neighbours making me anxious. Its a struggle just drowning out the noise with music, yep constant torment my life trying to live some sort of balance and when it goes off course i spiral , even when it doesnt i spiral. I’m tired of spiralling, im tired of everything.

Sounds like you need something to make you relax. It’s like your mind is going 100mph all the time. You should talk to your doctor about options.

I use L-theanine, but I use a lot of it. Still it keeps me calm.

Thing is ive been on meds that settled my thoughts down and i didnt like them. I like to feel some control. But you do have a point i will try diazapam , take more of that.

I had to look up what a sophrologist was ive never heard of it in the Uk before. It says its tools to stay calm and prepare for events like exams etc. Yes it seems its a valuable thing. I dont get any sort of therapy but i do meditate which helps some. Thanks @Vaiana

You’re welcome :blush:

It’s a psychologist I was seeing that talked to me about a sophrologist

I was shaking my head like crazy before seeing the sophrologist, I don’t do that anymore

I advice you to check what is the average price for a session of sophrology in America because it seems a bit expensive for me

The usual price in France is 50€

It’s difficult to find a source near me and this one is telehealth

They may be taking advantage of the sparse market to some extent

Thank you for the advice Vaiana :slightly_smiling_face:

You’re welcome :blush:

I know a telehealth site for sophrologists in France, I could look for you in America if you want to find a reliable site/sophrologist

Sophrologists are rather known in France I think so maybe they are more in France tho

I forgot to ask are you male?

Yes, I believe that sophrology is bigger in France than it is in the US. Meaning it may be difficult to find someone here. If you have a minute to look it couldn’t hurt. I’m in Pennsylvania
