Impulsivity and anxiety.

Hello everyone,I hope we all are good.
Today I will like to discuss a topic that have been bothering me for sometime now or let me say something that is affecting me of recent which I titled "Impulsivity and anxiety".

Impulsivity simply means a problem which is associated with our emotional and (or) behavioral self control While Anxiety on its own simply means a constant feeling of fear and worry about everyday life which is accompanied by fast heart rate,heavy breathing and tiredness as symptoms.

For the past one week I've been visiting the clinic,attending different counseling sessions and doing different exercises as I was instructed by my therapist all because I was passing through these two things called impulsivity and anxiety.

According to my definition,impulsivity is when you become emotionally, psychologically, mentally and physically troubled in such a way that it affects your behavior towards people around you and your interaction with them.

It has a similarity with anxiety,because when your are anxious of something,that means you're scared of that and when that happens your behavior towards that changes.

I had a breakup with a good friend whom I esteem so high and never wish to lose him,when this happened I became down emotionally and it affected everything about me. All I do is stay indoors in grieve wishing I never met that person than feeling empty because he left.

After staying indoor for weeks,I discovered that I've developed a medical health condition called impulsivity. This health condition is not too popular but nevertheless many people go through it and call it heartbreak while others call it depression.

I had so many symptoms ranging from breath Ceasure,sleepless night,loss of appetite and finally chest pain. It became too bad that I had to visit the clinic and after carrying out the necessary test and scan I was able to find out that I was at the verge of damaging my heart because of bitterness.

I used the little story of what happened to me to explain this topic more because so many of us pass through emotional trauma which breaks us down to the point that we even forget our identity but am here to remind you that you own your life,don't go into your hiding because of anxiety.

I was able to manage this health condition by doing something different like traveling,exercising,hanging out,partying and lots more.

The worst thing you can do to yourself is hurting yourself because of someone who doesn't care about your existence. Don't hurt yourself because of others,your life is priceless.

Finally,this thing called Impulsivity and Anxiety can make one to think of committing suicide so my advice is when you feel this way,find someone it might you mentor,your doctor,a close friend or a close relative and talk to. Trust me,sharing your pain with a love one can go a long way in your healing process.

Take your life more serious and please learn.not to dwell in past memories and past hurt.

Thanks for reading my post.
