Alright Guru, then let me ask you this.?

Question

This mental problem may be genetic and may exist because people related to me all get horrible physical problems whenever they get emotionally sick. Is it that they don't know that they have the ability to filter their emotions or is this beyond their control? Why would people want to be miserable? It's easier because they are familiar with it? Even when I didn't know about mental illnesses or my family's history, I use to scratch my skin until it bled when I was around 13. I get stomach pains, hair falls out, my thinking becomes slower, my muscles weaken and this is all caused by stress. I want to stop this because it is ruining my life. I am too young. I want to enjoy life, but my physical symptoms get in the way.

How can I possibly control these problems? No one has the answer. Do you?

Some of these answers are the answers I've been looking for. Thank You.

Answer 1

Hello Lisa, I am not guru.
Just wanted to tell you here something. What you do, do many people in one way or the other. It is a thing of comforting oneself, so one feels better. Others do this with overeating, too much drinking, smoking etc.
So what you do is just a unique way of dealing with your stress.

What might be helpful if you look at Emotional Freedom Technique. You can download a free manual at www.emofree.com and read through it and then already start with it.

If your doctor cannot help you, he might not be able to deal with the emotional aspect of it very well and you might want to search for another practitioner.

What might be helpful as a self help is also the use of Bach Flower Remedies, about which you can read on the net.

Just do not give up and know that you are not alone and that there is help for you there.

Answer 2

interestingly, your question should have been posted in the health section because research has proven that negative thoughts and emotions have a negative impact on ur health and the symptoms u described are exactly that. maybe, nobody in ur family has been really spiritual. u have got to find things that seem worthwhile , that make u happy but at the same time are not a waste of time. an empty mind is a devil's workshop, so don't stay idle. have u noticed the united states makes up less than 4 percent of the world's population but consumes more than half of its anti-depressants, this is directly a cause of the rat race and having less time with ur family and friends. neighbours in this country don't have time for each other. i don't want to say bad things, but we have to identify the problems and do positive things to improve on em.

Answer 3

Strange as this may seem, you are very lucky.

What you're are experiencing is the Placebo effect, i.e. you can profoundly affect your health through the power of your mind. And yeah, it's a genetic thing.

Here's why you're lucky. You can use this power to make yourself healthy. Appropriate training can be found in the movie/book "The Secret" and the works of Tony Robbins.

Answer 4

Hi, and sorry about all the pain and stress you're going through.

I really don't want to give you any advice and I really recommend that you not take any advice you get on this board too seriously. You really seem to need professional counseling; you really do.

Also, this is a philosophy area. You need psychology.

Good luck with that.

Answer 5

you cannot be a part of anything Earthly. Rather everything is part of you. If you are capable to comprehend and initiate that reverse , you'll be alright shortly.. More over you will be capable to help your close relatives ...not all of them, but some of them.

Answer 6

You are created by God.
