Let's examine the benefits and drawbacks of acute stress response. Physiological reactions release hormones like adrenaline and cortisol which prepare the body to either stay and deal with a threat or flee from the dangerous situation. They can be critical for survival. Some people perform better under stress. However, chronic stress can cause fatigue, migraines, depression, metabolic disorders (such as diabetes) and other problems. We can cope with the response by performing physical and relaxation exercises, developing support networks, remaining engaged and getting the proper amount of rest. Learning how to calm the body and remain balanced can help us in numerous ways. In my case, study, meditation, artistic pursuits, breathing exercises, practicing martial arts and becoming a better marksman have removed all anxiety. Fear can rescue, enslave, debilitate or motivate. It is a question of how we react to it.

I started exploring as a teen. Began with Wicca… didn’t seem to fit after a while, read things on Buddhism and things began to start making more sense. Read other things here and there. Had a large collection of religious and spiritual books. Still I didn’t choose to label myself, as nothing truly fit 100%. In my mid twenties I began experimenting with altered states of consciousness and reading many things of that nature. That’s where it all fell into place. Later a person in my life at some point in our relationship got heavily into meditation, theosophy, esoteric occult knowledge. He tried forcing these things on me and it did not go well. Even though much of it resonated with me, I rejected being force fed which inevitably prolonged getting into some wisdom. But it made its way to me eventually. And more recently some old Norse/ Odinism has revealed some interesting things to me. It has all been a rather complicated journey but also very simple at the root. And each day reveals something new. It brings excitement, beauty and magic into daily life.

The key is to learn how to be comfortable in your own presence, and occupied even when alone. I think sometimes people can rely on others to fill a void that they don't feel they can fill themselves. Like being bored if they can't have others around them to make them unbored. Or feeling sad or uncomfortable alone, so needing others to distract them from that with their company.

There's nothing wrong with needing people to be in your life. Especially if you're extroverted too, you will feel that absence a lot more intensely I think than an introvert. However learning to be comfortable on your own is something I feel everyone should learn. And if you don't feel you can then I think there's room for self improvement. Maybe there's some underlining issues you haven't addressed or tackled yet that have led you to feel that discomfort.

Taking up hobbies and such are great, as they get you interested in something that you can do by yourself even if others aren't around. So you find ways to entertain yourself when you're bored. And also it helps you to appreciate alone time more too, because you get to do these lil things you enjoy. Also practicing self care, like pampering yourself now and then, or doing stuff like meditation can help you learn to be in the moment.

Aw Abs, is there anyone in person you can talk to to alleviate some of your worries? Would chatting to your family help in any way?

You’re incredibly talented, wonderfully kind and have so much to offer, you may just need a bit of a break to regroup really! Is it possible for you to book a couple of days off work, if you don’t have much holiday? Trust me, it will help so much just to get a change of scenery - I can only imagine how immensely stressful it must be in your profession. Things that have helped me is doing meditation - it doesn’t have to be anything that woo woo, but just taking the time to sit or lay still, even if it’s just listening to peaceful music, and focusing on your breathing, deep inhales and longer exhales. It does help calm your body down a little, which in turn may help things feel a tad more manageable at that moment in time.

If it’s really bad though, is it possible for you to seek any advice from a medical professional?

I hope you feel better soon bud, I’m sending lots of hugs your way 🤗💛

It is a matter of perspective. For example, poverty inspired me to pursue higher education, embark on a rewarding career and improve my circumstances. I was born penniless but I did not have to remain that way. A motorcycle accident could've left me in a wheelchair and wallowing in self-pity. I saw it as another challenge to overcome and with the aid of competent surgeons and therapists, I was able to regain my mobility. That situation put me on the path of meditation, regular exercise, weight training and martial arts. In "failed" relationships, I examined what went wrong, what should be avoided and what might increase the chances of success in future relationships. From my vantage point, when we view life's setbacks as opportunities, every negative consequence opens another portal toward a positive transformation and *learning* from them becomes second nature. I will surely face new obstacles. Some will appear insurmountable and fate is free to hurl as many difficulties as it chooses. Good, bring it on. As long as I have a pulse, there will be no excuse to retreat or ignore the lessons which may present themselves. In "Twilight of the Idols," Nietzsche put it this way: "What does not kill me makes me stronger."

Nothing is set in stone, changes are still happening. An idea is still in the development stages. The situation can be a bit unsettling. The best will unfold for you. Work towards those goals. Stay adaptable. Don't be led astray. Refocus your attention on the right priorities. Need to release. Have patience and down time for yourself. Stop trying so hard to please everyone else. It's safe to move forward. Let go of emotional baggage. Meditation or yoga can be good. Prosperity lies ahead. Doubting self-worth. Believe in yourself. Believe that finances will be better. Use law of attraction. A new relationship can happen. S*xier times ahead. Don't give up. Self-care is needed. There's been some delays around. Worry less. Adjust expectations. Trust in your highest good. Something better around the corner. Surrender. Contemplation mode. Make the first move. Get organized. Speak up for what you want. Take charge of destiny. Avoid being reckless. Feel your emotions. Odds are in your favor. A wish coming true. Forgiveness needed. Release control, let things unfold. Let fears dissolve. Work on insecurities. Go after creative urges. Do things you loved as a kid. Let go of any guilt. Don't let people's projections get to you. You are worthy of love, self-love too. You've done nothing wrong.

I’ve prioritised working as many hours as I can this year, all in the aim to potentially achieve a huge milestone, if everything works out. It’s tiring and exhausting, but if it pays off (which I hope it will), then it’ll be well worth it.

I do feel like I’ve been on the precipice of burn out for a while though, so I’m also making an active effort when I have the energy, to do more to help my body - whether that be through gut health, learning boundaries, doing more meditation and yoga, inner healing, etc. I can feel the strain that I’m under, so I’m trying to alleviate that as much as possible.

---

Other than that, that’s about it really! I’m hoping that eventually, I will be able to cut back some hours and do some art again, as it is bothering me still that I can’t produce any atm, and I feel that many people (in person) are judging me as to why I’m not creating!
