hi @JJJ2
Having one of those wobbly days, hey - inspite of meds..?
I have those, too. More frequently than I imagined, at this point. Days when the Richter scale itself falls apart from high voltage nerves...
You've no doubt came across a lot of self help strategies, I'm guessing?
My psych introduced me to this thing called "bottom up" therapy. (If you're anything like me, let me assure you it has little to do with your butt as you might first imagine 🙃)...
It deals with tuning out all else except bodily sensation. And going through particular movement, or postures to enhance your dialling into that side of conscious awareness.
- A simple thing like rubbing your arms with vigor.
- Or slowly, slowly, just as sloth-like as you can, turn your head and gaze from one side of the room to the other. Do this twice...as SLOWLY as you possibly can.
- Another is deep breathing, while making a 'vvvv' type vocalisation as you exhale. At least three times over. This exercise is as much about listening to the sound as it is feeling the vibration from diaphragm to throat through to lips...
Hope your day improves 🙏
if you're upto it, a walk in the sunshine can do wonders...
