Experts called ways to deal with psychosomatic diseases
Psychologists talked about how emotional experiences are transformed into bodily ailments.
Stress can be lasting. In this case, it is reflected in the body, provoking various diseases. Here are the experts on how to prevent this.
“Psychosomatic pain is a form of physical pain that occurs due to an unstable psychological state. Emotions that are not released from the inside cause diseases,” the Stress-Anxiety-Help Telegram channel explained.
So, due to prolonged experiences, women may develop problems with the gastrointestinal tract - pain, spasms. It also increases general fatigue. The stronger sex can feel pain in the chest area, increased blood pressure. Older people who are faced with prolonged stress become more vulnerable, lethargic, capricious.
Experts compare the process of transition of pain from moral to physical with the release of steam from a boiling pot. If you periodically give steam out, then everything will be fine, but if you keep the lid closed, then the pressure in the pan will pass the critical point, the lid will fly off and the contents will splash out. The conclusion is that it is sometimes necessary to give yourself the right to weakness - to cry, to be lazy, to express anger.
What to do
At first, psychosomatic ailments do not manifest themselves, so it can be difficult for doctors to detect them. When consulting with a specialist, try to describe your bodily sensations and morale as clearly as possible - this will make it easier to make a diagnosis.
Psychologists advise giving up smoking and alcohol during a period of prolonged stress - bad habits will only aggravate physical well-being. And physical activity, available relaxation methods (yoga, massage, bubble bath, etc.), proper nutrition, communication with nice people, and hobbies will help improve it.
"Try to show all the emotions that will arise inside you - both positive and negative - in an environmentally friendly way, without harming others," experts emphasize.
