hello SlightlyMadMax :)
Thank you so much for those kind words - you are a wonderful and sensitive person.
I think that for me it has to do with a lot of stress as well - stress usually builds up gradually making the body more tense. people (well, me, and i believe that i am not unique in this aspect) do not realize how intense their body is in regard to what it should be. the relaxation mode for people who are dealing with chronic stress isn't as half relaxed as people who are not dealing with it.
In the state of stress the body is producing stress hormones such as Andrenaline and Cortisol - these hormones are designed to enter the bloodstream in relatively high doses in order to alert the body when a person feels some sort of potential danger).
In my case, i know that EC itself is a cause of stress because it effects the very basic activities that would normally provide a person with the confidence to get out there and do things.
However, i believe that EC was triggered by chronic stress and anxiety. the reason why it is not going away is simply because it is a stressing condition to have regardless of the stress factor that caused it.
This is, i believe, why there are reports of people getting better by getting Prozac, Affexor and other anti-anxiety/depressants.
That being said, i am not a doctor, and i would not recommend psichiatric medications without a professional evaluation. However, there are a lot of stress relief techniques that can most certinly help a person get to relaxation mode (running, exercise, yoga, meditation, music etc.)
Running,in addition to it's positive effects on every part of your body, has shown to have a similar effect on the body as anti-anxiety/depressant medications.
It is quite difficult (to say the least) to get in a routine of phisycal activity for a person who is not relaxed and feels good, but it is an engine worth turning on because it is a major key in emotional well-being and once you get in to it - you won't want to go by a day without it.
In short, i believe that EC is the body's response to emotional distress and i think this is the battle we should really be fighting.
Dear SlightlyMadMax, your reply has definately boost me up with positivity today and i feel very optimistic about the future and willing to fight my way to a better life.
hope you (and every1 here) get better really soon :)
Yours,
Lipman
