Maybe we are even more anxious and prone to spiralling because we were never allowed to speak about our fears and process them through communication with an outside source, someone we considered knowledgeable, trustworthy, and that would have kept us safe in any way (caregiver).

Maybe is this type of emotional neglect, of abandonment and gaslighting, of telling us "Ah, it's nothing/You're imagining stuff/You're being overdramatic/You're exaggerating things/You're too sensitive" (prolly used also to avoid thinking themselves about things they weren't sure about but felt responsible for) that only made us shut down our fears, have to deal with them alone without having the ability to, and let them rot inside in the dark instead of confronting, welcoming and understanding them so to let them free and feel free... Maybe all this is what is still blocking us. Keeping us in this anxious cycle.

This sensation of not feeling heard, seen or valued in our emotional and physical experience, of having our worries deemed as nothing and our ability of judgement, and our worth, been diminished. Of having our emotions and needs left unmet somewhere inside of us. They are probably what is crying and shouting from within us now. Through our fears and insecurities. Through our doubts and triggers. Let's talk more with oursleves and also let things out freely by confronting them when we feel okay to. Let's be more vulnerable, and even more let's talk with someone who has the right knowledge and can help us too in processing what is going on with us.

Even if we were taught so, we don't have to deal with everything alone cause others cannot be trusted or aren't able or willing to listen to us for whatever reason. There are people who can actually help us. Even just by listening to us. We're not too much, even when we're overthinking something that usually could be seen as nothing but in that moment feels like a humonguos weight. It's what happens when we're anxious, it's nothing we can easily control when overwhelmed. Let's be more compassionate with us too. We deserve love, respect, understanding and support whatever we're going through.

People often mistake numbness for nothingness, but numbness isn't the absence of feelings; it's a response to being overwhelmed by too many feelings.

She felt isolated and trapped and smothered, but everything he was giving her was something she had always wanted; only, it was too concentrated, a lifetime of missing love and attention crammed into one long weekend.

Overwhelming

Sometimes life can be overwhelming.

Not just the obvious ways. When we’re in a crisis – dealing with the death of a loved one, illness, divorce, loss of our job. Something so big that anyone who’s paying attention (and even those who aren’t) can tell that the water is coming into the boat faster than we can bail it out.

Sometimes life can be overwhelming – even when it’s not obvious.

When everything we’re dealing with starts to add up. When all of the “little stuff” gangs up on us.

We’ve got tensions in our closest relationships. We’ve got a micro-manager for a boss. And there’s a co-worker who knows how to punch our buttons. We’ve got a car that won’t stay fixed for anything. Stuff we didn’t get done is coming back to bite us. We forgot to go to the store and now there’s nothing for dinner.

By themselves, none of them are earth-shattering. But it feels like they’re working together.

Somehow, they keep adding up. To wear us down. Until they’re just as overwhelming as a major crisis.

But no matter how we get overwhelmed, the best way to handle it is the same. And it’s hidden away in today’s Gospel. Here’s what I mean.

After all of the amazing things surrounding the birth of Jesus. There’s this odd line, “and Mary kept all these things, reflecting on them in her heart.”

And you’re thinking, “hold on – how is that overwhelming?”

Think about everything leading up to this moment, everything that Mary has been through in the last year. Visits by angels, miraculous pregnancy, strain on her relationship with Joseph, road trip while 9 months pregnant, giving birth in a barn, angelic chorus, shepherds.

Overwhelming? Yes. Because even the good stuff, even miracles can be overwhelming.

In the face of that, look at what Mary is doing.

Mary is stopping. Just for a moment. Instead of letting an avalanche of events be overwhelming, Mary is reflecting.

Mary is stopping. She’s not letting herself be pushed by the non-stop flow of events. Which is how anything, even the good stuff, can overwhelm us.

Mary is stopping. Instead of simply reacting, she’s taking a moment to just be with God. So that she can be in God’s will. Before responding intentionally.

Mary is giving us a lived example of how to keep things from becoming overwhelming. And how to hit back when they do.

She’s doing it by stopping, by breaking the non-stop flow of events.

She’s doing it by reflecting, by quietly taking a moment just to be with God.

So that she can have God’s perspective on everything that’s going on in her life.

So that she can respond intentionally, from God’s perspective.

Not because doing it with God makes it all go away or become magically better (in a few weeks, Mary and Joseph will be fleeing for their lives into Egypt). But because doing it with God keeps her from being overwhelmed.

In this new year, things will try to overwhelm you. Don’t let them.

Follow Mary’s example. And stop. Break the non-stop flow of events.

Take the time to be quiet with God and to reflect.

Then respond intentionally, from God’s perspective.

Do it with God. Not just when it’s all too much. But every day.

Okay but like...this week's ep was fuckin stressful. I mean, yeah sure there have been eps where things got a bit worrying. But there seemed to be this underlying crescendo of shit going wrong.

Shandy changing Bantr's tagline without permission

Rebecca being all "cheery" with Ted saying she believes in him

The team finding out the sign was ripped

Beard and Roy making the rash decision to show the team the security footage as motivation

The team finding out Nathan ripped the sign

The team absolutely self-destructing on the field

Keeley having to present a good first impression for her boss and kinda fucking it up because of all of the above

Rupert getting in the way of Nathan apologizing to Ted

There is sO MUCH happening it feels overwhelming. Yeah there were eps that felt a bit sad and down but i don't think i've felt stressed by an episode of Ted Lasso.

#ted lasso tv #afc richmond #rebecca welton #keeley jones #coach beard #roy kent #nathan shelley #ted lasso #i am worried to say the least #shandy changing the tagline got me really fuckin just...ya know #even the small things like Will falling over getting off the bus #and zava yelling at jamie for not passing to him #overwhelming

I don't numb my feelings. I often let them cut me deep whenever they arrive. Its pointless trying to resist a storm when you're plainly in its path and there's no apparent safe cover to take...

i visited the pompeii archeological site a few days ago and honestly i was on the brink of tears the whole day, the fact that i was walking on streets that were made for and by people 2000 years ago because they lived there, they loved there, they cried there, they had people they care about there, i don’t know how i managed to not fall on my knees and weep on every corner i took

#please the graffitis #i couldn’t even look at them #i’ve been obsessed with pompeii ever since i learned about it in elementary school and i know so much about it #but actually walking the streets was just so #overwhelming #my sister was making fun of me all day for being so sentimental about it #but how could i not be #when i saw the casts of the people who died during the eruption #it hurt looking at them so much but i couldn’t look away

I am not okay about the new hunger games film. So many thoughts. It has done something irreversible to my psyche. I have just had such an Experience I actually am speechless.

His handsomeness this early in the day was devastating and unmanageable, and so she reverted to small talk.
