Do you ever feel like you can't talk to anyone?!


Question: Do you ever feel like you can't talk to anyone!?
To me talking to people seems kind of difficult these days!. Sometimes if you talk to someone about a problem, they either lecture you, call you stupid, etc!. & sometimes talking about difficult stuff makes me feel worse!. For example, some of my friends didn't know I still had feelings for my ex until I told them!. I hid it because I didn't want people asking me questions about the situation!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Even at the age of 40 I feel like I can't talk to certain people about certain things!. I don't talk to my mother about most important things because she is a negative person who does nothing but criticize my choices in life!.

I have found in life that the people who tell you you are stupid are the people in life who are unsure of themselves and need to put you down to make themselves feel better!.

Those who lecture you are usually the ones who love you and just want the best for you!.

I agree with Krazy on talking to people on line!. There is a sense of anonymity and safety!.

Search out those in your life (not on line) who will listen and be nonjudgmental about what you have to say!. Trust me!.!.!.it does get better as you get older!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I'm in the same situation!. I'm out of job and feel like there is no end to my misery!. Being unemployed makes me feel so worthless!. Sometimes I'm tempted with thoughts or consequences of suicide!. I begin to wonder who would really care or whatever!. What would theoretically happen with my family if I passed away!? It seems like everyone around me is living prosperously while I am living miserably!. They have jobs, they have money, they are enjoying themselves while I'm here living miserable!. I know all who are reading this will think I need to grow up!.

I am sometimes self-critical and keep these thoughts to myself because I honestly feel nobody in my house hold will truly understand!. It's like if I make a complaint or problem known, all they will tell me is to grow or be a man, as if men don't have feelings or issues of their own!.

Why is it that in our society if a man makes a complaint or feels a certain way, he is told to "grow up" or learn to deal with it!? I don't think we are robots, are we!?

All I can say is pray!. I'm in it myself so I don't know if I was exactly of any help to you!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

but i can always turn to strangers on the internet, i guess its easier because they dont really know you so it wont have an impact on them as much, and i would hope they arent as judegemental!?!? also they would be more honest instead of saying what they think you want to hear!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I feel like this all the time!.
The only person that I feel like I can talk to now, is my best friend, Martina!.
I don't trust my family and some of my friends honestly don't care!. (Even though some do, I don't talk to them about important stuff either!.)Www@Answer-Health@Com

I have that feeling with my psychiatrist and my Mother!. Both of them will just tell me that I am stupid when I tell them something personal!. So I stopped talking to them!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Self-Confidence and Self-Esteem

How you think about yourself defines your self-esteem!. How you see yourself defines your self-esteem!. If you are hard on yourself when you make a mistake, if you don't like what you see in the mirror, if you feel like a failure every time your anxiety relapses, chances are you have low self-esteem!. You probably don't like yourself all that well!. If you don't like yourself, it may be difficult to believe that recovery from your anxiety disorder is possible!.

Low self-esteem and anxiety may become a vicious cycle!. Perhaps low self-esteem is one cause of your disorder!. Perhaps years of battling your disorder have led to low self-esteem!. It really doesn't matter which came first because, either way, the two are feeding on each other now!. Eliminating one problem won't necessarily eliminate the other, but working on both will bring you further along the road to recovery!.

Low self-esteem doesn't change to high self-esteem over night!. However, the acts of being good to yourself and compassionate towards yourself will help immensely!. These are acts which you may practice every day by being conscious of how you "speak" to yourself!. If you have low self-esteem, there's a good chance that you are much harder on yourself than you are on other people!.

Would you get angry with someone else for having an anxiety relapse!? Then why get angry with yourself!? Think of the words you use to comfort your friends when they relapse and give yourself the same treatment!. This is a technique you may try whenever you are having critical thoughts towards yourself!. You might not believe those comforting words at first, but time and practice will make a difference!.

The main problem with changing low self-esteem is recognition of the problem in the first place!. You might not notice that you are being critical of yourself!. You might not see the connection between your self-criticism and your anxiety!. Take some time to notice how you talk to yourself!. You might carry a small notebook with you to write down some of these thoughts!. In the same notebook, write kind, comforting words you may say to yourself when you start to beat yourself up!.

I have been suffering from Self-Esteem and Anxiety Disorders since I was a child!. You better consult with your doctor,it will get worse with the years because next step will be "Depression" and there is not cure [yet] for mental depression!.
Depression is like a cancer,slowly will eat you up!.DEPRESSION is the leading cause of disability worldwide, according to the World Health Organization!. It costs more in treatment and lost productivity than anything but heart disease!.We need a network of depression centers, much like the cancer centers!.

Please consult with your doctor ASP,before is too late!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
