Life can sometimes get on top of you and make you feel as if you have no hope and as a result you can start to feel depressed and powerless. But you may be feeling depressed but you are not powerless.If you want to begin to feel better then first you need to just put your worries aside for a second.I know it's easier said than done but just trust me on this one.Get a pen and paper and write down the things that you have in your life to be grateful for. Even if it's as simple as running water, clothes on your back, a roof over your head, eyes to be able to read this etc, etc. Keep writing until you can't think of anything else that you have to be grateful for. Have a think about this and think about how lucky you are to have these things.
What makes it challenging when you go to the doctor not feeling well and you're told there's nothing wrong with you is that you know there is something wrong, but the tests just aren't picking it up.You see, there isn't a distinct line between health and disease. In most cases, it's a gradual process. You don't go from healthy to having a disease overnight, unless you came in contact with something that causes an immediate reaction. Most of the time, there are shades of gray where you're not healthy, but you're not sick enough for the tests medical science has available to detect it.
Now just think about these things, who you are as a person and what you have to be grateful for and you should begin to feel a heck of a lot better. There is always a way out, you just need to believe in it. Do not beat yourself up over what you haven't done just give yourself credit for what you have done. Don't ponder of what you haven't got, be grateful for what you have and I assure you, you will start to feel a whole lot better.
Norma was extremely fatigued. Frequently, when she came home from work, she would lie down and take a nap.She also had indigestion. It was so bad that she couldn't sleep the night through no matter how tired she was. It would keep her awake for hours every night. It's no wonder she was so tired all the time. On top of that, she was bothered by constant sinus drainage and twitching of her eyelids. Her right eye wouldn't remain open completely.
That's not all. Norma also had joint problems too. She could not stand up from a squatting position without help.So, to say she had some health challenges is putting it mildly.Norma was tested for food and chemical sensitivities. Seven months later, after avoiding her sensitive foods and following a rotation diet, all her symptoms were gone... as long as she continued to avoid her sensitive foods. She was glowing. The before and after difference in how she looked is very dramatic.
How does this work? When you have food sensitivities, your body is unable to completely digest the foods to which you are sensitive. The partially digested foods pass into your bloodstream and your immune system treats them as foreign invaders, like bacteria and viruses. It attacks them, causing an inflammatory reaction. As long as you continue to eat foods to which you are sensitive, you will continue to cause more and more inflammation to develop in your body and your health will decline.
Be thankful for everything that you take for granted. Caught in drizzle? Be thankful that you have an umbrella. No umbrella? Be thankful that you can run and take cover. Nowhere to take cover? Be thankful that you can run! Remember, there are many who cannot.Always compare yourself with people who are less fortunate than yourself. I don't mean just moneywise or healthwise. Whatever your situation be, there will be others who are in a worse place. Appreciate the merits of your situation.
The most frustrating part of food sensitivities is that most people don't know they have them because the reaction to the food occurs anywhere from three hours to three days after eating it. The symptoms they cause can be almost anything. The most common are digestive problems, headaches, migraines, joint pain and stiffness, arthritis, chronic fatigue, skin disorders, ADD/ADHD and more.
Be with happy people. Their positive energy is quite infectious. At the end of a weary day, instead of reading or watching depressing news or serious movies, turn to children's comics, cartoons or comedies. And laugh out loud.Before going to sleep,make two lists for the next day - one for the things you have to do, and one for the things you keep postponing. Keep the second one very short - just 2 or 3 items. The next day, even if you cannot tick off every item on the first list, make sure you do the second one. And see for yourself how better it makes you feel!
