REJECTION REACTIONS: I do experience times when I feel rejected by everyone, family, friends, and society in general. I speak for myself: I know that I have a chemical imbalance.
I have to make sure that I've eaten and taken my medication because not taking care of myself in those two ways can bring on what feels like a rejection attack from the world.
Sometimes, when others in my life may be less than supportive, such as having said something insensitive will start negative feelings in myself. In severe self- pain I will withdraw and take a nap with my dog. I find that a good dream will relieve the pain. Sometimes, I can even learn something from the dream.
I also like to get my mind off of me and play computer games, garden, and or walk my dog. When all else fails, I call my best friend and talk it out and get feed back from her. Once I talk it out with her I know that I will be ok!!!
I know that feelings change quickly. Yesterday morning I felt fine today I feel such and such. I believe: "That this too will pass....." . I do self-talk to help myself through my crap. The more I try to help myself, the better I am becoming at it.
