can’t help falling in love on a kalimba
Esto es el mejor vídeo para calmar el alma y que no se diga mas ✨♥️
There’s a reason lots of good parents say to babies stuff like
“You’re excited to go to the park!”
“Oh, it makes you mad that we can’t go outside.”
And then when the babies get a little bit older the parents can say
“You seem upset. Are you sad?”
“Are you excited that gramma is coming over today?”
Which lets the kid (who is learning to utilize speech) respond with yes or no, which may prompt more questions, like
“So you aren’t sad, are you angry?”
“Yes, does it make you happy when gramma is here?”
And then, finally, when the child is learning to use language in a more complex way, the parents can say,
“How does it make you feel?”
“Why are you feeling like that?”
And it’s all about teaching emotional awareness. I really reccomend using the process on yourself. Learn to ask, “am I happy?” “Am I sad?” “Am I anxious?”
Then practice identifying, out loud or on paper if you can, “I’m happy.” “I’m upset.” “I’m sad.” “I’m anxious.”
Final step: “Why am I feeling anxious? I’m still thinking about that awkward conversation earlier.” “Why am I happy? It’s such a beautiful day outside.” “Why am I sad? None of my friends are responding to my messages.”
It really helps you notice patterns (“I’m more likely to be happy when I’m around this person.” “When I haven’t eaten, I often feel angry.” “If I don’t plan ahead, I get anxious.”) which is the first step in avoiding things and people that are bad for you and encouraging things and people that are good.
It’s kinda crazy I saw this today. I’m 25 and have struggled with identifying emotion my entire life. This morning I woke up feeling blah and consciously identified it as sad (something I’ve honestly only figured out in little inklings and wisps before, like, huh? Maybe sad?) and realized this is exactly the kind of thing I’ve needed to start doing!
I don’t want to get too technical, but this is a very real phenomenon, and I want to share it with the younger side of medblr. Alexthymia, or difficulty in being able to describe how you feel, is a real personality trait. Whilst it doesn’t have to occur with mental illness, it can often occur alongside it, and has also been implicated in somatoform disorders. It’s also more common than people realise. Stuggling to understand how you feel, and what you are experiencing, and then struggling to express it, can make it harder for people to respond to and accept treatment. It can be very difficult for people, and can affect how they experience mental or physical illness, or even just normal bodily sensations. It can make things much more difficult, and I want people to know that if this is a particular struggle for them, it is not their fault.
