News of Coping Methods & Techniques

I'm new here, and I don't know if this is the right forum to post this on.
This is going to sound ridiculous but here it goes:

About four years ago, I met in-person an actor from my favorite movie which I am obsessed with. This actor is my favorite character and his character in the movie represents my "ideal" in terms of a romantic partner. This actor in particular is between 30-35 years older ...

Hi there,

Does any have any experience of inner child healing, what they achieved from doing it, how they did it, and how long it took? I've recently identified through therapy and reading up on transactional analysis that my inner child is very damaged and needs lots of attention, which is causing a lot of problems in my adult life.

I've tried to talking to my child each morning and trying to calm them down. ...

Some days I just get stressed out and even when I'm trying to remain calm I start trembling. I didn't even notice it was a thing I do but apparently its pretty noticeable to others that I'm shakey. Any idea how to fix it? I'll try to stay still but can't seem to.

Any recommended tips & techniques for dealing with bad memories you'd rather forget?

I'm in my early 40s and about 7 years ago I confronted my NMom & NStepdad. We're limited contact now & I am a lot more content. However, I still go through the process of 'grieving' for the life I didn't have. I realize I probably spent 30+ years of my life with high-functioning depression. I do have some good memories, but ...

I'm so upset and hurt, that I don't ever want to deal ...

I am generally an anxious person and I would like to learn to apply CBT to reduce stress at work. Is CBT appropriate to all situations?

For example
when my boss gives me a job to do at the last minute I know I have to do it. But it makes me angry that it is last minute without notice when I feel he had a responsibility to plan things better. This makes me frustrated ...

Hello, long time listener first time writer.

I was wondering if there was a reputable resource for coping mechanisms regarding violent impulses, and the aftermath of trying. At the moment the most I do is bury them down until I snap. Though the thoughts never go away and have been increasing in intensity and reactions the more I've just ignored the impulses and stopped myself from acting on them.

I'm not in therapy at the ...

The other night me and a couple of friends were talking about abuse, because of all that metoo stuff and Harvey Weinstein etc.. and like different coping mechanisms? (we had all survived some kind of abuse)

one thing my friend said was that people can't hurt her, because she won't let them, she's kind of inpenetrable in a way. She avoids getting that close and vulnerable with people. Which also means she often hurts people ...
