How to get rid of constant tension in the body. All symptoms: external and internal manifestations. The danger of nervous tension


Hello, friends.

Life modern man inextricably linked to stress. Permanent nervous tension accumulates over many months and years, undermines our health and weakens the immune forces of the body.

Appear chronic diseases, which are difficult to treat and further deplete nervous system. Vicious circle"stress-disease-stress" reduces the quality of life, causes premature aging both physical and emotional.

Acupressure

Acupressure of reflex points quickly causes a calming effect, due to the fact that it stimulates the production of calming hormones. If you feel that you are “boiling” inside, massage the point in the middle of the chin with inside– 9 times hourly and 9 times counterclockwise. You will immediately feel relaxed and calm. Kneading the middle finger of both hands for 1-2 minutes has the same effect.

Laugh

Finally, smile and laugh more often. Surprisingly, the work of facial muscles has a beneficial effect on blood flow in the vessels of the brain and promotes the synthesis of endorphins (hormones of happiness). Communicate more with people you like, joke, watch comedies, smile at others and get a grateful smile in return.

Unfortunately, in people with a weakened nervous system, quick methods of dealing with stress may not be effective. How to strengthen the psyche and achieve positive result, we will talk in the next article titled: .

To calm down and forget about problems, I suggest you listen to wonderful relaxation music.


Seems like words like nervous tension, anxiety and stress- have entered the everyday vocabulary of almost any adult Russian.

I suggested experimenting with how we respond to words. And is it really so that we think, feel and speak in tune, even for ourselves. Such exercises allow us to identify what attitudes prevent us from realizing our desires, feeling at ease and at ease.

What words or phrases evoke a heightened reaction, and reveal actual problem mental disharmony. And further, outline the ways of psychotherapeutic work. After all, it is always so, if the real emotional condition disharmonious, then we cannot adequately perceive everything that we see, hear, feel. This means that the response to the world will not be the best option.

For example, when I discuss with a client the aphorism “An egoist is an unpleasant type who thinks about himself, and not about me,” the client zealously, in all seriousness, defends his position on why this aphorism is bad. I understand that the word “egoist” catches him. And the client himself is an egoist, but he tries to deny it, to justify himself. This is one inescapable moment. The second one is testing by color selection, and I understand what emotional state he is in, and what aggravates the perception of this phrase. After our certain joint work, the attitude to this aphorism changes.

When I first read this phrase, my first and only reaction was laughter. Well, obviously, this is a humorous statement. Did no one notice?

Now, who answered, who did not.

Answered to everyone who fulfilled both parts of the condition:

1. Made an arrangement of aphorisms and colors.

2. Sent 3 emails to my mail. addresses of acquaintances to whom my blog was recommended.

This work is interesting, but tedious. One good turn deserves another!

And thank you very much those who shared with me their favorite aphorisms, parables, etc.!

The bad news is that everyone stress, nervous tension, anxiety, fatigue, many apathy. In principle, the reasons for all this can be very diverse, and often inevitable. Good news in the fact that you can recover, and dump from yourself, all this unfriendly burden.

I will briefly talk about how I relax. And then, I will give win-win recommendations.

Depending on the temperament and level of energy state, everyone chooses the most pleasant and feasible form. stress relief. I relax, recover and am ready for new exploits, with the help of sex, sports, dance, energetic music, short meditations, water procedures, reading, interesting me, applied literature. No less, I enjoy when I pamper people close to me with gifts and goodies. These are my stable and reliable ways.

Non-permanent methods include:

Departure to nature. Be sure to have one, and in your car. It is desirable that it rain, and I went to the mountain, with a view of the Volga River, and the forest behind it. If it is at night, then I go up the mountain with an overview of the city at night. I turn on my favorite music, and enjoy the beautiful view, fresh air, to the sounds of my favorite tunes. In Volgograd, it is difficult to find a mountain, but I ran in a couple of favorite places. The view is really gorgeous.

Rare forays into hypermarkets also add strength. Provided that I conceived some next culinary masterpiece. Because Since I rarely go to the kitchen, then cooking for me is not something everyday. But if I take up cooking, then I do it from the heart, and I get just tremendous pleasure. And in my family there is a holiday - Tanya cooks, so there will be something delicious. Well, of course, it will be delicious - I put all my soul and all my imagination into the process. If I lie down in front of the TV and ask my husband to turn on something “light”, he plays cartoons for me. He says it doesn't get easier. I love cartoons about Winnie the Pooh, Carlson, Prostokvashino and other classic delights. I'm taking a break from meeting my girlfriend, and I'm childishly happy with my old acquaintances, with whom, unfortunately, I rarely see each other.

Perhaps I wrote everything that I have been doing for so long that I didn’t even remember about the other.

How to relieve anxiety and stress.I recommend the classic, and not only, music to remove "black glasses". Listen to any music you like.

1. Benedetto Marcello "Concerto for oboe and string orchestra in C minor".

2. Tomaso Albinoni "Adagio for Organ and String Instruments".

3. Sergei Vasilyevich Rachmaninov "Second Piano Concerto".

Getting rid of apathy, detachment.

4. Franz Peter Schubert "Barcarolle".

5. Robert Schumann Intermezzo from the Viennese Carnival Suite.

6. Alexander Nikolaevich Skryabin "Etude in A flat minor".

We also move away from regrets about the past.

7. Antonin Dvorak "Slavic dance".

8. Ludwig van Beethoven "To Elise".

9. Edvard Grieg "Concerto for Piano and Orchestra".

- Try to "create" on your own (write poetry, draw, sculpt, create masterpieces of culinary art, etc.).

- Write down and tell jokes and funny stories from your life and the lives of people around you.

- Set yourself a goal (the smallest one), plan the stages of achieving it (write it down), set intermediate tasks for yourself (write it down). Put this plan in a prominent place and mark with a sign every task completed, every milestone passed.

- Write on beautiful pieces of paper slogans - "Win!", "Become!", "Realize!", "Organize!", "Achieve!" and hang these slogans throughout the apartment or in your workplace (if possible) in such a way that you always stumble upon them with your eyes.

- If the previous steps are too difficult for you, then master the technology "SCHN" (do something). And it doesn't matter what you do. Achieve at least a little success and reinforce it with a positive incentive (pamper yourself).

- On your face, most of the day should be a smile, and in your head - only good thoughts.

— The most important thing is to learn to enjoy every moment of life, love yourself and the world around you!

If you know of any other ways, how to relieve nervous tension, anxiety and stress, harmonize the soul and body- . Often, one read word replaces hundreds of books read!

Emotional tightness and nervous tension - gives us a lot discomfort and problems. Most people, unfortunately, are not trained to remove tightness, relieve tension with adequate methods and relax their mind, their consciousness, subconscious and body. Which almost always leads to stress, exhaustion, nervous breakdowns and to various diseases.

That is, the desire seems to be there, but it cannot be realized. This is either a self-prohibition, or a block (prohibition) formed in childhood, for example, imposed by parents.

All normal, positive aspirations of the soul must be unblocked and revealed. otherwise, the desire is blocked (by a ban) and emotional and energetic constriction is formed in this place. Each crushed aspiration is souls and blocked joy, that is, killed.

To remove the prohibition and tightness, you need to give yourself the right, especially if it is something natural and good. How to do it? Best in writing. Write for yourself a detailed justification of at least 10 reasons why you have the right to “it”.

4. Background tension and tightness, like a habit. Often, in order to remove one negative habit, you need to start forming another - positive (opposite): In this case, a positive habit will be a state of calm and relaxation.

Also, let me remind you of the traditional methods of relieving tension in the soul and body!

Physical exercise:

  • and meditative running
  • Gym

Any overwork, which concerns the physical state or psychological, can adversely affect the state of the nervous system.

When a person pays little attention to his general condition, they are often not taken into account, which, as a rule, do not pass without a trace for the body, and even more so for the nervous system.

A state such as nervous overstrain is quite dangerous for a person, so you need to pay attention in time to the factors that lead to moral and emotional failure.

It is common for a person to feel different emotions, but if joyful ones bring only good things to a person’s life, then bad emotions, frustrations, experiences accumulate and lead to an overstrain of the nervous system.

Also, it has an impact bad dream, malnutrition, illness, all these negative factors lead to the fact that a person feels tired, exhausted, and any minor trifle can unbalance.

When a person long time is in this state and nothing is done, everything ends.

Risk factors and causes

If we talk about the risk group, then with full confidence we can say that every person who is not particularly attentive to his emotional, physical and mental state falls under it.

So, at first glance, the usual daily routine may include physical activity, experiences, poor nutrition and disadvantage healthy sleep, fatigue. It is not necessary that these factors be cumulative, just one regular one is enough for the nervous system to react in a negative way.

The risk group includes those people who have a lack of vitamins in the body, diseases that are associated with the functions of the thyroid gland.

Also, the causes of moral and emotional stress are movement disorders, schizophrenia and genetic predisposition.

People who use alcohol and drugs are also at risk, as these substances have.

All this is the reason for the development of nervous tension, and it is necessary to prevent complications and treat disorders, which depend on the state and duration of the stressful state.

First signs of a problem

If we talk about the first signs that you should pay attention to, first of all, these are general state body, and if nervous tension builds up, the following symptoms will be observed:

  • sleepy state;
  • irritability;
  • lethargy;
  • depression.

Perhaps a person, especially with a strong character, does not show such emotions, but sooner or later such a state can reach the point where the manifestation of emotions will be expressed in a sharper form. An inhibited reaction may be observed, often the actions themselves appear in a calmer form.

But, also, the opposite state is possible, when a person is extremely excited. This is expressed in behavior when activity is not justified, a lot of talk can be observed, especially if this is not characteristic of a person.

Such a state is completely uncharacteristic of a person, and nervous tension in the head leads to the fact that a person does not perceive reality and loses a real assessment. He may underestimate the situation or overestimate his capabilities, often in this state people make mistakes that are absolutely not characteristic of them.

Nervous breakdown as an extreme point

When a person is in constant overvoltage, there is no other option than. When the nervous system is overstressed, insomnia is observed, and when a person does not have good rest and sleep, this leads to even more fatigue.

If the first symptoms indicate mild form overvoltage, then there is a pronounced emotional state. As fatigue and irritability intensify, a person is able to break loose on others.

This can manifest itself in aggression or tantrums, so it is important to protect yourself from such nervous breakdowns.

All symptoms: external and internal manifestations

If we talk about the symptoms of nervous tension, then they should be divided into two groups, the first is external, the second is internal.

External manifestations:

  • constant state of fatigue;
  • sluggish broken state;
  • irritability.

In some cases, irritability may not be very pronounced, but usually it makes itself felt sooner or later. These symptoms are initial stage development of nervous strain, then internal symptoms begin to appear.

Internal:

  • conditions in which lethargy and indifference prevail, some lethargy, while the person experiences anxiety, this state has a depressive character;
  • states increased activity, agitation, obsession.

This stage is quite dangerous for a person and measures should be taken immediately, since the next stage of development can affect other body systems and affect them.

In the process of development and aggravation of symptoms, the following are observed:

It is very important in the development process not to miss the moment when you can get by with quite a bit. simple treatment, but if you do not pay attention to this condition, they can develop serious pathologies. In addition, nervous tension can reach the point where treatment involves psychotropic drugs.

Why are our children at risk?

No matter how strange it sounds, but in most cases, the parents themselves are to blame for the nervous overstrain of children. This is not due to the fact that the parent has malicious intent and deliberately brings the child to such a state. Often the parent is unaware of what is happening. This condition may occur due to educational processes.

Also, it can arise from the loads on the school curriculum, extra classes. You need to be very careful about the emotional state of the child. If necessary, consider in more detail the psychology of the child, which is important for him at this age.

What significant moments can cause emotional discomfort, not allow and not bring the situation to such a state when the child closes in himself.
