Christmas Anxiety | Ann Booker, Schema Therapist, Chesham
When someone suggested I write a blog for Christmas to highlight how people can feel super lonely at this time of year, and the impact on their mental health, I got to thinking, but WHAT ABOUT HOW I AND MILLIONS OF OTHERS FEEL? (not to dismiss the plight of those who are alone).I’ve got nothing to complain about really, I’m not lonely; but there’s no doubt that Christmas has a super negative effect on me, and from what I gather, on many others too.
What is Schema Therapy all About?
Does a part of you believe that deep down any of the following is true?
~you struggle to trust people
~people will end up leaving you
~you will never by loved the way you want to be
~you've always been this way and can't change
~you quietly flounder in social situations, don't feel good enough or are doomed to fail
~you must keep working really really hard just to be good enoughIf any of these statements strike a chord, then Schema-Mode Therapy could work for you...

So how can we find moderation, the sweet spot between gentle expression and easy containment?
