ADDICTED TO OVER THE COUNTER PAINKILLERS AND HOW ANXIETY HYPNOSIS CAN HELP.

 

Are you addicted to over the counter pain killers?

 

Am I Addicted to Pain Killers?

addiction_is_addiction_The Nexus Team Anxiety Hypnosis in Birmingham & WalsallThe addiction may start as an innocent part of you wanting to get better following a bout of pain, such as surgery, giving birth or having an accident. This may start as prescription drugs but then you get used to the so called good (euphoric) feeling that you get, also known as a (buzz) feeling.

We are by nature an addictive being, as everything we do is repetition. As people know this, repetition will by its act bring on an addiction. This is true if the feelings we get satisfy us, such as the drugs, particularly if they are helping to control your pain.

You might recognise other addiction type behaviours in you or people around you. Theses could be an addiction to Facebook, Gaming Consoles, Constant Texting, Drinking, Sweet or Savoury Foods, Gambling, Smoking, Drugs, Workaholic, and many more…

The Painkillers and You…

Over the counter addiction pain killers can include: Co-Codamol, Ibuprofen, Paracetamol, Nurofen, and of course any drug with an Opiate content.

Once you have the relief from taking the painkillers and they have succeeded in controlling your pain, you still insist in taking them and then you begin to recognise that you have a problem. But you still insist that you don’t. This will lead to a multitude of covert behaviours.

These behaviours can take the form of taking the drugs when you know you don’t require them. You take more than the prescribed dose, by taking a higher dose of pills each time or more pills overall. Recognising that you now lie about your painkillers and you hide that fact. You go to different pharmacy’s, or when different staff are on duty, or you get others to go on your behalf or you start to steal them.

What can I do about this?

If you are at this point, then you know that you need intervention, to have drug rehabilitation for this.

You have to open up the lines of communication to immediate family, so long as you feel that the family are strong enough to help and support you.

You then need to contact your doctor or contact a drug addiction support centre.

Once you have started to readjust your outlook on how to conquer this, because your not a bad person and this isn’t something you planned. This problem started possibly as a bi product to you just wanting to stop the pain that you had.

The best way is to search on line and get the low-down on help offered near you.

What Next.

Once you have recognised that you want help then seek help via the internet, or your GP. If this is to do with pain, then one of the best ways to control your pain in to have hypnotherapy for pain control. Hypnotherapy in this area is quiet effective and of course you are going to be drug free.

Not everyone will be aware that hypnosis can offer such benefits to be pain free, via using the techniques, you can learn that hypnosis can help you manage and reduce your pain.

You may also wish to visit a hypnotherapist who deals with drug addiction as this too can be beneficial to you by helping you to be drug free from painkillers.

You can use alternative treatment to help you while coming off your drugs as this will depend on how many and how addicted you are and if you have an addictive personality.

Open up communications and confide in someone who you feel you can trust that can offer advice. This could be a best friend, your nan/granddad or anyone else you may feel that would just give you that reassurity to get you well on your way and off the painkillers .

OVERCOMING SOCIAL ANXIETY!

So you have social anxiety – what can you do about it…

What is social anxiety?

light bulb & peopleWhen we think of social anxiety, we often think about different social situations that make us feel shy, self-conscious or uncomfortable. The most common example of this is the feeling of being “out of place” or “awkward” at a party or family gathering. However, there is a big difference between feeling awkward at a party and having a deep rooted feeling of despair, anxiety or panic when in the company of other people.

Not many people enjoy receiving criticism, judgement or even a compliment from others, but for some, the fear of receiving such judgements can lead to paranoia, extreme discomfort and panic attacks. In some cases, individuals have had to leave their jobs, school or colleges in order to deal with their social anxiety and in extreme cases, even limit their time out in public for fear of an anxiety panic attack!

If you have reached a level where you think that social anxiety is affecting your life, then the time to act is now! With The Nexus Team Anxiety Hypnosis. Download my free Axe-Anxiety

Common Symptoms…

There are many symptoms of social anxiety and as with every other phobia, they vary in severity depending on the level of anxiety you are feeling.

When a sufferer of social anxiety finds themselves in a social situation that they are not comfortable in, they often experience the following:

Heavy sweating and/or blushing
Nausea
Shaking of the limbs
Nervous stuttering or stammering during conversation
Drying of the mouth
Shortness of breath
Weakness of the body
Sufferers also try to avoid any form of eye contact and make it difficult for themselves to be noticed or approached. For social anxiety sufferers, speaking in public is an almost impossible task.

What can I do to overcome, managing my social anxiety?

For the most part, social anxiety normally has a root cause. This is often a deep lying sub-conscious condition such as a previous embarrassment or traumatic life event which may have shattered your confidence, broken your trust or completely cooled your interest in the people, or in the world around you. Anxiety Hypnosis has been proven to be extremely successful in the area of overcoming social fears and allows you to analyse and understand your sub-conscious thought patterns, leading you to fully overcome any issues you may have, not just cover them up.

Anxiety Hypnosis can also restore your self-confidence and boost your self-esteem to new levels, as well as preparing you for public speaking or appearances. You may not think this would apply to you, but I can assure you at sometime in the future you will have to do some public speaking. This could be thanking people at a wedding, christening, birthday, anniversary or any other social event you can think of. So think of receiving Anxiety Hypnosis as an investment in not only now but also your future as this is a very important step to take right now.

You have probably suffered from social anxiety for many years and have tried avoidance, hiding, using excuses, but none of them have really worked for you. Take action today with using my professional services.

What can I do next?

If you are currently suffering from anxiety, panic attacks or are experiencing any of the symptoms above whilst in a social setting, you may be suffering from some form of social anxiety issue. If you find that these issues are affecting your work, studies or everyday lifestyle, then contact me at The Nexus Team Hypnosis today. With the help of my proven techniques that can work for you, you can learn to live a social anxiety free lifestyle as you can manage your anxiety or panic attack with relative ease.

TIPS on managing your social anxiety.

1 Seek out a therapist who will help you.
2 Grow your confidence in other aspects of your life.
3 Sit in a chair, imagine playing out your worst social fears, but know you are still at home in the chair.
4 Tell others of your problem as most people are very supportive and want to help.
5 Unfortunately you will have to face your fears in order to conquer them.
6 If you’re going to a party, see if you can be the first to arrive, Then you don’t have the BIG problem of facing everyone right away.
7 Fire yourself up with high energy music or a drum beat as this will energise you and so help override the negative feelings and take this high energy music with you.
8 Last but not least, now take ACTION and if the panic feelings start, just calm down back away for a moment and regather your thoughts and go for it again. As the saying goes ‘Slowly, …slowly, …catch-a-monkey’.
