Leezord must de-stress to heal! * ^ *!
2 years ago
General
I've come to realize something about my condition: The carpal tunnel was likely a side effect rather than cause, specifically chronic inflammation of sorts, from what I learned one f the causes of that was obviously: Stress.
When I think back at it, I have indeed been stressed; Losing family left and right, things being very difficult to afford, and not accounting for everything basically that happened over the last few years, the shit companies have been doing that I am not a fan of, the absolute madness of the world itself, etc. All congregated and I somehow kept holding onto that rage as it occurred. 2020 - 2023 was THE MOST stressful years of my life, and it shows! I now realize that the inflammation is caused by stress, and LOTS of it.
What made me realize this is: At work there were times where my hand just felt normal like the inflammation just MELTED away and it'd be good until the next morning...I never could understand why until now. At work I would be relaxed because I was enjoying what I as doing. Sure there would be some stressful situations but at the end of the day especially near the end of the workd ay I was relaxed and pleased ^v^!
I've allowed my rage to dominate and take the forefront, while I do sometimes enjoy being the "super angry guy" amongst certain groups of friends (as a fun joke) and my brother being that I am the "fiery twin" heck its part of why I enjoy the element of fire, and why even many of the interpretations of Jeffron are fiery. Unfortunately all this stress and anger has likely caught up to me, and if I ever hope to get better, I have to learn to relax.
The fire doesn't always have to burn so hot. Does that mean I should let the things that piss me off slide? of course not but it doesn't mean I have to get into a rant about it! I can still do things like voting with my wallet when a company does something I don't like, not pay any attention to the stresses unless it's something like good news or something uplifting, and anything beyond my control I'll leave it to the big man to deal with. etc.
But simply not focusing on the things that annoy more make me angry isn't enough. Now granted I've been doing more of a low sugar diet, mainly getting my sugars from the fruits I still love eating, and consuming the most likely candy-ish thing' dark chocolate, all having supposedly anti-inflammatory properties, and exercise more, but it isn't enough.
If I wanna get better, it's imperative I get back to the things I love doing, drawing, gaming etc. I can still ease back into it and I will be, but if I keep doing nothing it will not help! I will be smart about this so yeah!
TLDR; I need to relax so I'm going to try and be more chill despite all the things that annoy me. I need to get more control voer myself and react accordingly.
