Good day, question asker.
If it were possible, I would like to offer you a gesture of comfort from a distance to help ease your restlessness and self-blame.
First and foremost, you are undoubtedly a person who is very aware of their inner strength and clearly understands their current situation.
I believe it would be beneficial to seek treatment for this situation.
From your post, it seems that you are currently experiencing anxiety and emotional distress. You seem to be aware of
It seems that you feel somewhat helpless and unable to change the situation, even though you are experiencing some difficulties in controlling your emotions and actions. Is that an accurate observation?
I'm not sure how long this situation has been going on for you or what led to it.
If I might suggest, let's first focus on identifying the specific symptoms you're hoping to address.
If I might inquire further, could you please elaborate on the nature of the anxiety you're experiencing?
It's important to remember that there are many factors that can contribute to feelings of anxiety. If we were to roughly divide these factors, we could consider them to be either internal or external.
It might be helpful to consider some of the so-called internal factors that could be at play here, such as an overly sensitive personality trait, a perfectionist complex, and a pessimistic perception of the worst.
It is possible that a number of factors, including cognition, may potentially contribute to the onset of anxiety in an individual.
It is also worth noting that external factors can include life events such as heavy debt, emotional setbacks, work and life stress, and so on.
It is worth noting that traumatic events, etc.
It might also be helpful to note that anxiety can sometimes cause insomnia, and similarly, insomnia can sometimes make anxiety worse.
If a person is aware of their anxiety but unable to change the situation, it is possible that they may become even more anxious about their anxiety.
It might be helpful to consider some somatic reactions.
In addition to insomnia, it seems that you may be experiencing some emotional distress. It's possible that you've been holding in a lot of negative energy, which might be contributing to the problem.
It seems that some pent-up anger was directed at your beloved cat, which unfortunately became an innocent punching bag.
In addition, it is possible that a single remark from another person could ignite your inner anger. This kind of emotional reaction to provocation may also have contributed to an imbalance in your inner world.
I believe this is where the so-called emotional imbalance may lie.
How might one go about breaking the pattern?
It would be helpful to determine whether your anxiety is caused by biological factors, such as an increase in the level of certain hormones in the body.
It is possible that changes in neurotransmitters, etc., may be the cause of the anxiety. If this is the case, it might be helpful to consider using medication first. Therefore
If I might suggest, it would still be beneficial to visit the psychiatric department of the hospital for a brain CT.
Secondly, if for various reasons medication is not an option, it may be helpful to consider physiological decompression as a way to regulate your emotions.
If you find yourself losing control of your emotions, you might consider rinsing your face with cool water to help calm your senses.
If I might make one more suggestion, when emotions get out of control, it can be helpful to change places, go into another room, or step out onto a balcony.
It may be helpful to take three to five deep breaths in a row. You can learn more about this technique, also known as abdominal breathing, by following a script that can be found online.
It may also be helpful to consider that this can have a similar effect to medication.
If you're struggling to control your emotions, you might find it helpful to engage with an alternative object. You could try beating up a stuffed animal or old clothes that you don't use anymore.
It might be helpful to consider that every time you abuse your pet, the deep feelings of remorse and guilt also activate your anxiety, which can make you feel restless.
If I might make one more suggestion, it would be to try to calm your restlessness.
If I might suggest, it might be helpful to try to return from the out-of-control emotions to the present moment with the help of positive self-suggestions and reminders. You could tell yourself, "Calm down!"
Take a moment to calm down. I am here with you. I am aware of my anger, and I am trying to stay detached.
It may be helpful to come out or detach yourself from the situation.
You might also consider training yourself in mindfulness of emotions.
It might be helpful to focus on the emotional experience when negative emotions arise.
Perhaps the first step would be to make room.
You might find it helpful to calm down and relax by focusing your attention on the inside of your body, perhaps on your chest, abdomen, or shoulders.
Could I ask you to consider the feeling there? Perhaps you might like to ask yourself silently: What is going on in my life?
Could I take a moment to consider what is most important to me at this time?
If I may suggest, perhaps you could try feeling the part of your body where you are feeling it, and slowly find an answer in the feeling. When thoughts or ideas come to mind,
Instead of analyzing, perhaps it would be helpful to take a step back and acknowledge the feeling. Then, you could ask yourself what else you can feel. By continuing to wait and continue to feel, you may find that other thoughts come to mind.
2. Experience
2. Experience
If I may make a suggestion, perhaps you could try focusing on the following question:
You may choose to focus on a personal question that arises from the next thought. Alternatively, you can simply take a step back and allow the thoughts to come and go without analyzing them.
It is possible that you may have a number of considerations about that thought, so many that it may be challenging to think about each one individually.
It may be helpful to continue feeling the sensations and noticing where they are located in your body. This can help you gain a more holistic understanding of the issue at hand.
If I may suggest, perhaps the best way to begin is to first experience the vague feeling.
3. Try to understand it better.
Could you perhaps describe the characteristics of that vague feeling this week? Do you think it might be possible to find a phrase or adjective to describe him?
It might also be helpful to consider an image to accompany the feeling, such as a taut, tricky, or heavy sensation. Paying attention to the qualities of the experience could also be beneficial.
It may take some time to achieve this, but it is worth persevering until the characteristic matches the adjective you have used and it feels very appropriate.
For instance, I sense a subtle sensation in my abdomen, as though it were somewhat constricted. In that moment, the word "tight" comes to mind. Similarly, I experience a feeling of congestion in my chest.
I noticed a sensation of chest tightness, and the word "chest tightness" came to mind.
4. Interactive induction
Could you perhaps try feeling the word again and again, using parts of your body to feel it, and see if you can resonate with it?
It might also be helpful to consider whether you can feel the signals your body sends out to let you know that the two match. To do this,
At this point, it may be helpful to allow the experience and the word to change together, by feeling the word again.
Until the word is able to describe the quality of this experience in a way that is both accurate and satisfactory.
5. It might be helpful to ask.
Perhaps it would be helpful to start asking: What could have caused this situation? When he reappears, it might be beneficial to scrutinize him.
Gently touch and feel the problem, and ask yourself, "What makes this problem so and so?" You might also ask, "What does this feeling include?"
If you find an answer without transformation, you might consider letting go of that answer and refocusing your attention within to rediscover the experience and ask again.
Allow yourself to experience the experience until something different accompanies the transformation, a feeling of release and lightness.
6. Acceptance
Greet everything that the transformation brings with kindness. Allow yourself to experience it for a moment, even if it is just a hint of relaxation.
No matter what may come along, this is simply a change. His transformation will continue to come, so it may be helpful to feel it for a while longer.
If you have ever had a full-body sensation related to this issue, you may find that it is a focused experience. It is not necessarily the case that the body will feel transformed, but it is likely that it will happen automatically, as we do not control it.
It might be helpful to consider that emotions are an important part of our bodies, reflecting what we need and what is not being met.
It may be helpful to consider that these experiences can be expressed through somatic physiological reactions, which serve as a form of alert.
It might be helpful to remember that every technique is individualized and targeted, so it could be beneficial to consider.
It might be helpful to seek the advice of a professional consultant in order to find a way out of this difficult situation.
I am Consultant Yao, and I am here to continue supporting and caring for you.
Comments
I'm really struggling with sleep, staying awake for hours on end, and it's taking a toll on me. I also have these intense outbursts of anger, especially towards my cat in the mornings, and I act in ways that scare even myself. I lose control and hurt her, and afterwards, I feel an overwhelming sense of guilt and sadness. It's a cycle that I desperately want to break but don't know how.
The insomnia is so bad, and I can't seem to find a way to calm down at night. When my cat wakes me up early, it triggers this rage inside me, and I lash out at her in a way that's completely out of character. I love her, but in those moments, something snaps, and I do things that I later regret deeply. It's terrifying to not be able to manage my own emotions.
I have these violent reactions to being woken up by my cat, and it's like a switch flips in my head. I hurt her, and although I stop before causing serious harm, I can see the fear in her eyes, which breaks my heart. Afterward, I try to make amends, but I can tell she's scared of me now, and it's devastating.
Sleepless nights are becoming more frequent, and my temper is getting worse. My actions towards my cat in the morning are inexcusable, and I hate myself for losing control. I need help to understand why I react this way and how to prevent it from happening again because I cherish my relationship with my pet and don't want to cause her any more distress.
