Today I want to talk about a subject that is rarely mentioned, and that is the subject of being overly self-absorbed, detailing the effect, it can have on your mental health and other negative consequences. If there was one thing that helped my mental well-being and sense of freedom more than anything else, it was ending this destructive habit. What does it mean to be self-absorbed? If you spend most of your day obsessing over your mental and emotional state or continually worrying about how others are perceiving you, then you are overly self-absorbed. Negative Effects of Being Self-Absorbed ..read more

The importance of self-care for good mental health

Forget chasing happiness and fulfilment through material things or outside validation and invest in the most important thing in your life, your mental health. So many people believe the secret to happiness is on the outside when in fact it is on the inside. You can move home, gain promotions at work, win the lottery, buy as many material things as you wish and jump from one relationship to another but without good mental health, you will never find the peace and happiness you are looking for. Symptoms of poor mental health Relationships and friendships full of conflict Feelings of worthlessn ..read more

Why does my mind go blank when talking with others?

I recently received the following question below from someone who felt detached from their surroundings when communicating with others. As this is something I also went through, I thought I would address this issue. ‘A lot of the time when I am in a social situation my mind goes blank, I feel disconnected from reality and the conversation itself. This either leads me to say barely anything at all or I end up just rambling as I try to cover up my discomfort.  This is having such a negative impact on my life, I just want to know why this is happening and what can I do to overcome it?’ Th ..read more

The Ultimate Guide to How I Overcame Anxiety and Fear

by Paul David
1y ago
Throughout my years of suffering, I was like most people and reached out to others to help me overcome my anxiety and fear. I read books, talked with professionals, wasted numerous amounts of money on different approaches and techniques, and yet I was no nearer gaining my freedom, in fact, I would say I was getting worse. It was at this point I decided to ditch all conventional help and find my own answers. This journey was a long road of success and failure, one though that ultimately led me to being free and finally able to discover my former self. Although there were many factors to me fin ..read more

Does the self help market really work or is it a scam?
Anxietynomore Blog

The self-help market is currently a billion-pound industry. There are thousands of new books, courses and retreats churned out every year and yet little seems to change for the majority of people. Does this mean that it is all a scam or is there real value in this ever-growing industry? I wanted to write this post because so many people have spoken about wanting to get off the whole self-improvement cycle and just go back to living their life. They are tired of trying to get somewhere and tired of trying to manage, improve, or fix themselves. Unfortunately, many admit to being self-improvemen ..read more

It was through my own struggles with anxiety that my mental health also started to decline. As time progressed, I began to feel very down. I was constantly irritable, unable to think clearly, had little mental energy and struggled to find any interest or motivation in anything. Even simple tasks like tidying the house or cooking a meal seemed like an enormous effort. Symptoms and behaviours of poor mental health Lack of enthusiasm for life Constantly snappy and irritable Unable to concentrate or remember things Slow and laboured thinking Strong tendency to ruminate Feeling overwhelmed by eve ..read more

How do I give up my struggle with anxiety?
Anxietynomore Blog
by Paul David

Updated 23/10/2018 It’s not your thoughts or emotions that keep you in the cycle of suffering; it’s your constant struggle and rejection of them that does. Non-acceptance of ‘what is’ is what creates resistance, and it is this resistance that causes so much extra suffering. This struggle is also what prevents the process of healing to occur. If you want to overcome anxiety, then struggling with it is not the answer. Anyone who finds themselves stressed and mentally exhausted has got there through rejecting and struggling with their inner or outer world. These people aren’t in the fl ..read more

Why does anxiety lead to avoidance behaviours?
Anxietynomore Blog
by Paul David
1y ago
Updated 01/04/2020 Today I am going to cover the subject of avoidance with anxiety. Avoidance in dealing with anxiety can take many forms; some people may avoid things like social situations, driving, the supermarket, answering the phone. Some may turn down invites to meet with friends, avoid going for the job they want, or postponing that evening class they so want to go to. The person who falls into avoidance behaviour restricts their own life due to becoming a prisoner to how they are thinking and feeling. They may find doing things too much effort or not want to face triggering the anxiet ..read more

Updated 09/02/2020 Today’s title ‘How long does it take to recover from anxiety’ has no definite answer and is like saying ‘How long is a piece of string?’ People can suffer to varying degrees with their anxiety and mainly go on to develop different habits and beliefs. The way in which people experience suffering can be down to many reasons and no two people’s experiences are the same. What influences how long it takes to recover from anxiety? Overcoming anxiety is firstly dependent on having the knowledge and understanding of what is needed to begin recovery. Once this knowledge is gained an ..read more
