Haven't posted in a while. Got caught in a rut for a while. I think I'm getting out of it now. Once in a while I just slip up and the negative thoughts come flooding in. I'm trying to just say screw you to the negative thoughts. It seems I encounter my biggest issues when I start believing those thoughts. And it just always baffles me how once I'm clear headed enough I look back on what I was thinking and can't understand it. It's kind of like being above that negativity and looking down on it and laughing about it. But it has that tendency to creep up on me sometimes.
Things have been a huge cluster of emotions and feelings lately. Recently I've been doing research on magnesium deficiency. I have chronic tension in my shoulders, my neck always feels stiff, and I'm prone to migraine headaches when I get really stressed out. In fact a few days ago I had one so bad I threw up from the pain and I couldn't leave my bed or stand up otherwise I got this unbearable pain behind my eye and the side of my head. It might have actually been a cluster headache, either way it was bad. So I read that magnesium deficiency can actually cause these. And also magnesium is essential in order to allow the muscles to relax.
Interestingly enough the more stressed out you are, the more prone to magnesium deficiency you are. I'd say I'm sufficiently stressed out, tired a lot of the time, and then that leads to more stress when I feel too tired to do anything productive. And no doubt subliminals work the brain pretty hard, so I have to factor that in too. So I'm gonna give some supplements a shot. I just had a big duh moment when I realized that I was addressing the mental aspect very thoroughly while neglecting the significance of other factors related to the physical.
