MALE MENOPAUSE: HOW TO SURVIVE – CONTROL THINKING (INTRODUCTION)
Should doubts, depression and feelings of failure or futility take hold, recognize them for what they are, symptoms of M-M, and try to create a way to overcome them by thinking or doing something different. The recommendation is: control your thoughts and block out depression by taking evasive action.
This may not be easy at 3 a.m. as you lie in bed, your problems crystal clear and engulfing you while everyone else is apparently blissfully asleep. There is nothing quite as effective at night as a parade of personal problems for instilling a sense of life-panic and misery.
But, as they say, think about an itch and you begin to itch. If in a cinema you think your ankles are being bitten by a flea, in no time you feel as if a flea is having a party in your pants. If on a boat you worry about being seasick, you are seasick.
Emotional problems, therapists say, are no different. If you think about them, you worry about them; worry about them and they become magnified out of all proportion. Especially at night.
