Mental pain is the most incomprehensible pain. It is she who brings more suffering to a person, because there are no tablets, potions or syrups from her. You never know if it will pass tomorrow or will drag on for many years. You need to get rid of mental pain slowly and consistently, not counting on instant results.
Instructions
Step 1
The first thing you want to do is forget everything and run away. But the way "to buy a ticket to the sea or a ticket to the village to see grandmother" is far from the best. He will give only momentary results. And then you still need to return home to the real world. And then the pain will only get worse. Everything in everyday life will remind of pain - the memory has been muted for a short time. And upon her return, she will again take possession of the heart.
Step 2
To get rid of pain, you need to name its cause. Speak it out loudly. Or write. The main thing is to realize. This may require an interlocutor - it could be a best friend or a psychologist. If the pain is caused by the loss of a loved one, you need to figure out what hurts the most in leaving? It could be fear of being alone or feeling guilty about the deceased. If a loved one left, you need to understand what really happened as a result of his departure: confidence in the future is lost or pride is wounded.
Step 3
When the cause is named and recognized, you need to start to eliminate it little by little. To begin with, say to myself: “I no longer want to live with this pain. And to get rid of it, I will do something new tomorrow - I’ll start writing poetry to pour all my suffering into them, or blogging to share my pain with readers. I will go to a dance or wrestling to express my pain physically. I will be engaged in embroidery or making soft toys so that the painstaking work dulls the acuteness of the mental pain. It will be easier for someone after he cries all night - it all depends on temperament, upbringing and habits.
Step 4
Now you can start to get rid of what reminds you of the cause of your heartache. Remove for a while or completely throw away the photographs and belongings of the person who is the source of the pain. Or communicate less with him if he is still present in life. If the source of mental pain is the loss of a job, then do not read articles on professional topics, avoid communicating with former colleagues.
Step 5
When the reason is named and realized, there is nothing that can remind of it, and the emptiness in life is filled with a favorite pastime, you can say: "I am starting a new life in which there is no place for mental pain." And start enjoying every day. Look for a supply for this. This can be a favorite song heard on the radio, a conversation with a loved one, a chocolate eaten at night, a walk in the rain barefoot and without an umbrella, buying a new dress or tie. There are many reasons for joy. There are many more of them than reasons for sadness! And each new day is a powerful pill against mental pain.
