FEATURED What's Something That Improved Your Mental Health?

test
Awareness of GAD or general anxiety disorder and the meds that followed

Because the awareness just makes it easier to make sense of the behavior or provides an explanation which is comforting in itself before you actually address it

I defo got more anxious the older I got, being able to recognise that and speak to friends and family defo helps...

Its good that anxiety or mental health in general isnt such taboo subject these days and most people arnt told to just 'man up' when sh!t gets abit too much...

i told my dad my anxiety has been making me wake up an hour before my alarm for 3 days straight so I’m tired af

This niggas’s response was go to bed earlier and just get up an hour earlier
 
Also going to watch live football/soccer everyother week, its not just about the football but you defo let loose...

Its a time when guys seem open up about sh!t, prolly because we sit next to eachother and not face to face lol

Sometimes I really struggle with guilt when I just want something for myself.....not the kids or the Mrs... I went to a nice restaurant I been wanting to try...alone. The meal was great and most importantly, I shed the guilt and just enjoyed myself for a moment.

My therapist told me obvious shit but for some reason it helped

Just with whatever decision you make, you cannot feel bad about it

You are making whatever decision for your sake and you have to put yourself first sometimes

Agree on being able to let loose in some style

That was one of my diagnoses, I'm just not taking meds for it. I learned to work through my anxiety issues but one of the biggest helps in that area was drastically reducing my caffeine intake. No more energy drinks for me, and I was tossin' back 2-3 cans a day along with several cans of Coca Cola. Now it's just black or green tea in the morning and that's it. Getting enough sleep was another big one 'cause while I was taking care of my wife I rarely ever slept long enough to hit REM sleep and that went on for 7-8 years.
