My last caning was during NYSC when we were in the NYSC camp in karaye local government area of Kano.

That day,we refused to go for parade.

So the Regimental Sergeant Major (RSM) came to the hostel and flogged us. He gave us 3 strokes each.

Also in the NYSC camp, during man-o-war, one female trainer asked us to kneel down for an offence which I have forgotten. But it had to do with coming to the training with something.

In fact those that lied that they were not aware of her earlier instructions were released by her.

Something told me to lie, but I refused.

I told her that I heard her instructions but was too busy to remember and carry them out. That I just remembered the instructions when I saw her.

She left me kneeling down for a long time.

I told myself that it was better to say the truth and be punished than to lie and be safe like others.

I still believe that I will get a reward for telling her the truth.

Another punishment during my NYSC camp was rolling on the floor.

I can remember twice when all of us corpers were asked to roll on the ground.

I remember one lady. As she rolled, she was seriously crying. But I didn't cry.

In the camp, soldiers and men-o-war called us Otondo.

That was the name they called us.

pozehnani:



Ow.. sorry about that. It's not something you can get from your local BSS. You have to check a big drug store or pharmacy like health plus or any organic shop in your area.
PM me for my contact.

OK I will do that. I sent you a message.

pozehnani:

Ok. No p.

How do I get to contact you? I went out to get the oil you suggested didn't see..

@Mariahangel .. You go like cruise. I would love to be a friend. How do I contact you?

prince2pac:
that's why I talked about getting natural weed and not mixed synthetic.. and also know what your head can carry.

No do pass yourself

Lol.. My head nor fit carry am. Any weed plug

mariahAngel:

You're welcome.

Nairaland fellowship coordinator.

@Mariahangel. You r really an angel. Thanks a lot.

mariahAngel:


Ok. Let me give you a spiritual and mental exercise to try:

Read the whole chapter of Matthew 6 every single day, focus especially from verse 25-34 again and again... until it ministers to your soul and spirit

Any time you find yourself worrying too much and feeling anxious, meditate on these words of Jesus Christ "Take not thoughts!
Let His word be your deflective mechanism , then eventually, the solution to your problem.

Mehn... This is a spiritual journey

prince2pac:
ah bro please stop them biko... look even till now that my friend is still suffering from memory loss, even when you tell her something after sometime minutes or hours she will forget everything... please run from any depression drug... there side effects are terrible....

you have to channel your energy with something before meditation work for you...

I don't know if you do weed, like something that my friend was put on medicinal weed ( she lives in the UK) for her head..
Just look for pure weed, not those mixed with anything.. if you stay alone you can use it as tea, then meditate...
it's good for your body

Someone told me about weed. It had terrible effects on me.. Was always smiling every time like a mad man. Lost total control of myself . I had to quickly stop it.

mariahAngel:


Meditation does not work unless you're meditating on something tangible

Deflective mechanism, as described by Psych Central , is simply the channeling of unacceptable impulses, thoughts and emotions into more acceptable ones. For instance, when a person has sexual impulses they would like not to act upon, they may instead focus on rigorous exercise. Refocusing such unacceptable or harmful impulses into productive use helps a person channel energy that otherwise would be lost or used in a manner that might cause the person more anxiety.

Are you a Christian?

Yes

pozehnani:


You're welcome.

I'm a skincare therapist.

That's good. Can I get your contact details? I for say account details but area never gel..

mariahAngel:


Honestly, naturally, we all tend to worry too much about everything and anything, including things we have no power over, and that is the root cause of anxiety.
What you have to do is to train your mind on how not to think or worry too much, especially over what you cannot change, by using deflective mechanism .
You said you meditate, what do you meditate on?

Nothing exactly. I just close my eyes, take deep and shallow breaths for 10 minutes. Please what is deflective mechanism? Can you please throw more light?

fredwill1357:
Stop masturbating if you do, exercise your body everyday, do things that scare you and expose yourself more.

I don't masturbate. Thanks for the great advise

Shortyy:
Hmm. It takes the Grace of God to overcome anxiety.

Learn to take things easy no matter the situation.

Teach yourself to be calm and collected every time.

I used to be to anxious myself, but I'm learning to control it.

OK shortyy, thanks. I hope you are not short? Lol.. You pretty

frozen70:
Do lots of exercise
Read more about anxiety management Read more about men's health
Learn to take things calmly so far threat to life is not involve
Learn to take charge of your happiness
Avoid people who triggers you
Learn to avoid engaging yourself into arguments
Leant to give yourself peace of mind
You are responsible for all that I have mentioned

Thanks dear

Uncledare4:
how about you lifting weight, eat lots of protein, be and feel better

I would try that. Thanks.

pozehnani:


Where's your location?

In Lagos you can get some brand, 50ml for 500 naira. Then another brand goes for 5k for 15ml. So it depends on the brand you want but they do the same thing. The only difference is those expensive ones can be ingested ( you don't need to) while the cheaper brands can only be used topically or for aromatherapy purpose.

I live in Edo State. You sound like a medical practitioner. I would get it hopefully this week. Thanks

pozehnani:

You're welcome.

Please what's the price range?

mariahAngel:

Do you think/worry too much?

Who doesn't?

prince2pac:
Please stop anything medication, I have a friend who lost all her memory while taking all those anxiety and depression drugs, even till now she is still not 100%...

Trying working on your mind like meditation, get a pet too, a cat would be easy to manage.. take lots of walks and exercise... Make sure you drink enough water too...

Meditation.. I do that a lot. It ain't working. I did you use a couple of depression drugs, it became even worse. I totally lost control of myself

[quote author=pozehnani post=95798303][/quote]
Thanks dear

pozehnani:


Get a good aromatherapy oil to help you feel relaxed. For me, I like using frankincense essential oil. It relaxes my mood whenever I'm tensed. Then prayer works too.

Also do a few quick yoga exercise when it comes eg, inhale slowly on count of ten then exhale (slowly again) until you get to your last breath. Repeat like 5 times and you'll be relieved.

Now, when you're tensed before someone, try not to engage in longer convo. Just do short talks until you've regained your breath ( with the yoga tip I gave up there). Overtime, you'll be in control.

How do I get it and how is it used?

Thanks guys for taking out time to give me advice. Please i would love the mods to please put it on Front-page so I can get loads of opinions. Thanks

jesmond3945:
me too. I solved it by working on my mind.

How did you work on your mind

okoIYAyin:
How old are you? I used to be like you but i outgrew it, so don't worry much ok. In the meantime you can try go out more often, go to the cinema, park, meet new people and with time you'll be surprised with the changes.

I am almost in my mid 20s.. I have done so much but all to no avail and it is affecting my life negatively.

ecomalchemist:
You need to take L-THEANINE supplement.

What's that?
What's the common name?

I get so tensed up easily. I have tried meditation, alcohol even drugs all to no avail.. It's worse when I converse with people I get really sweaty. It is affecting me in so many ways. What should I do?
