The quote “Children don’t earn money” is now popular. I can't agree with her. Alas, if this were so, then children would not give birth to children and, in principle, would not start a family. I want to write not about such hackneyed beliefs and not about “money thinking” 😀But about real down-to-earth reasons why a person may have problems with money: No strength. There is simply no energy, no resource. And of course, in such a state, going to the doctors or deciding to go to a psychiatrist for the first time is very difficult, because this also requires strength. The main thing to remember is that this can be good support and the first step towards change. Anxiety. Constant mental confusion, control and inability to relax. This is the case when meditation can only be annoying. It’s impossible to stop the flow of thoughts and it only drains the last of your strength. It is difficult to generate new ideas out of anxiety, and there may be more mistakes and wrong decisions. Not in the mood. In melancholy, the world is seen in black and white, and the image of “I” is negative and does not correspond to reality. In this state, a person belittles his competencies and concentrates on his shortcomings. Life "in the past". When someone’s criticism, condemnation, conflicts, negative memories are constantly scrolling through your head. There is no contact with the present, with actual reality. A person can also create “struggle” in the outside world. Responsibility, choice. When there is no feeling that I influence something in this life. And often somewhere in the background there is an expectation that now someone will come and save me. Or something will happen on its own. I have no idea what I want. All these points can be all together. And if a person has had repeated episodes of emotional/physical/sexual violence in the past, then he generally feels: Inadequate, strange; A depressing feeling of guilt; Shame, which prevents one from expressing oneself and expressing oneself; strong, which drives you into apathy Periods of regression - when something is triggered and a person falls into games, watching TV series, films (often, by the way, this is something about maniacs, murders or shows where they humiliate each other) In these states, a person completely loses connection with reality and goes inside oneself. People in a state of trauma sometimes earn only the level of survival. To change this, long-term therapy is needed to restore a holistic image of oneself, explore one’s triggers and develop the skill of self-care and return to reality. But life goes on and you want to earn money now, and not someday later, when the therapy is over. And this is possible. For this it is important: Constantly monitor where your focus is now. Translate it into the present. Takes care of your psychological state. If necessary, seek support from a psychiatrist. Develop the skill of acting, but out of self-care, and not out of criticism.
