Mind vs. Body
For years I battled depression and anxiety without even knowing, or understanding, what was actually happening inside my mind and inside my body. Growing up around the traditional western medical model, I was trained to treat my mind separate from my body. So, I went to therapy and talked about my feelings until all of my tears were gone and I was too exhausted to go on, but yet, I never actually felt better. It does help to say what was going on in my mind and to try and articulate what I was feeling, but I still went home feeling sluggish, overly fatigued, and unmotivated to do anything other than sit in my bedroom and sob.
