Adam, I can't thank you enough for your explanations and support. 🙏

Adam, thank you so much for such a great explanation, now I get it - t's necessary for me to accept this to set me free from my faulty beliefs about myself... seems so clear to me now.. thank you!! I accept this, but at the same time I don't want to start blaming my parents for this, cause...

Hi Adam, thank you so much you comment and your view on my situation. I always love to get an opinion from the outside, cause often feel lost in my own inner world due to its complexity. If you don't mind, I would ask you a following question (I can't figure it myself): Let's say, I do accept...

Think of a person in your life from whom you hide your emotions. This would be my entire family (relatives). The only person I can now show my true emotions to - is my partner, however it doesn't always work well. Sometimes he can't handle my emotions well, maybe because I express them in a...

"If a person has a lot of current stress in their life, what are some ways they can simplify their life?" I want to answer to this question from my own experience. One day I came across a statement, which made so much sense to me, after surviving tons of personal traumatic life events: "Trauma...

Are you having success at recognizing the emotions connected to your pain? If you have, how do these emotions make you feel? I think with two emotions I got pretty well in tracking them down. Fear - it creates an immediate fatigue, anger - most of the times I get migraine after I get angry...

Ow thank you so much, this is great, exactly what I need !! Going to print it out and hang on the wall :)

I skipped a week of studying at this educational program. Every day during this week my inner perfectionist and the "best student" were beating me up from inside. I was telling them: "It's okay, I can do the program at my own pace. My six weeks can last for a year, if necessary. I don't focus on...

Think of some activities you really enjoy doing. That would be going to a linguistic class, doing any sports, traveling to a new place and exploring it, going to an art class, walking around the city and exploring. If you could do one of these activities without feeling stressed out, without...

Dear Dr Schubiner, Thank you so much for all of your amazing work, it has been life changing for me! Could you please explain to me, I still can't understand "Why would our mind think it is helping us by creating this extreme chronic pain?" - why exactly the brain does it, what's its intention?

Thank you for sharing your story. I love reading about your improvements and want to encourage you to not let negative thoughts throw you off track - cause that's what they do. You say: "I think every signal is an alarm, and then I panic". Lately I've been practicing one thing, which made a...

Hi Kira, Thank you for your message! It's actually quite uplifting to read that someone in this world knows this pattern.. so I'm not alone To answer your question : Yes, it's a total misunderstanding or I'd rather say a negative falsy thought which adds up at the end of the emotional...

Hello, something I want to share. Yesterday I had an emotional breakdown. After few hopeful and light days I got back to the "dark hole". Trigger was a stupid tiny thing, a word that my friend said to me with no intention to hurt me. To understand how innocent it was - he offered me to go by...

When was the last time you exercised or did another physical activity? About a month ago What was this activity? Yoga - my sport activities are selected by the horizontal criteria (meaning how laid down i can be while doing them, so the choice of such sports is not very broad) How did it...

Three things that make me feel angry are: 1 - Since POTS started I think it's when the closest ones forget/disregard how much effort in takes me to do anything. 2 - When the closest ones put me off and I lose the last strength that I just hardly could gather within myself to do anything. 3 -...
