One of the dominant reasons why we go through an emotional trauma is because we forget to prioritize self-care in life. We are so busy making other people happy, that we start enjoying our sacrifices and begin creating a hollow space for ourselves. We land up in that hollow space when the other party withdraws from our life and pays no heed to your existence. Well! This is just one way you ruin your existence, there can be several. You must have seen some people always planning things for themselves and even if it causes a little pain to others, they don’t really care. It is not always selfishness. It could be self-care. They know they need to value themselves and hence, they look out for ways that bring them happiness. If the emotional trauma is too big,  then you should consider a counseling or group therapy. A weekend getaway is a wonderful option to  refresh your mind too.

You might think that this is an awful suggestion when everything in your life is upside down and appears nothing like what you want. But believe me, having gratitude for what you have erases half of the problem. I am not advising that you look at big things or make peace with your tragedies, all at once. What I mean is you begin with small things. For instance, while having your morning coffee, say thank you. Likewise, show gratitude to the little things that make your life a bit easier.

 

  1. Don’t Stress Your Body

 

The most common mistake that adds on to the adversity is that people put their bodies under torture when they are emotionally slipped. Do you think that its fair? Why trouble your body in which you live in? Treat your body with respect. Not sleeping properly and staying dehydrated are ways you are putting your body under test. Eventually, it will fail and not feeling healthy will only add to the emotional trauma as you will begin thinking that even your body is not supporting you at such a low. But the fact is that it is you who should be supporting the body. So exercise and eat healthy no matter what.

Use extremely kind words and a calm tone and communicate your worries with them. Whether they have positive or negative reaction to you, you should let them know.

The history has been witness to the fact that there is no force stronger in this world than a pen and a piece of paper together. Well! I am not asking you to turn into an author and try changing the world but this small effort can definitely bring a magnitude of change in your life. Write down whatever is bothering you and if you want, write your story. How this works is that your problems will be shifted to the piece of paper and you will not have it accumulated in your mind. It will begin to stop affecting you day by day as they would have found a new home by then.
