If it seems that there are too many problems, they cannot be cleared out, then you can resort to classification. It will help you navigate in yourself, sort out problems on the shelves and understand what can be done with them.
I think that psychological problems can be roughly divided into an excess of something and a deficiency of something.
The phenomenon of excess can be understood as follows: if this is reduced in my life, will I feel better? For example, anxiety may be excessive, there may be excessive control, there may be excessive self-criticism, there may be excessive relationships in which you feel bad …
The phenomenon of scarcity - if I add this to my life, will I feel better? For example, add vitality, a sense of security, add a good relationship where I feel accepted / accepted …
And the problems of "excess" may be easier to deal with. Remove from life an excess of excitement, fear, control. Learning to stop yourself when something begins to unwind the flywheel of excessive mental arousal. To do this, you can master the techniques of "grounding", taking care of yourself. You can try to evaluate - why in my life … is this excess? What does it give me? Can I live in a more sustainable and enjoyable way?
Deficiency is more difficult. Vital forces, a sense of security, the ability to trust and reasonably good attachments are usually in short supply. Replenishment of deficiencies is a long and painstaking work. This is a kind of cultivation that goes on at its own pace and cannot be accelerated. But! You can organize yourself a support system, take care of yourself. You can do at least a little for yourself, gradually, where there were deficits, something new will "grow". And over time, it will take care of itself and it will be easier to organize a support system, from which the filling of deficits can go faster.
Of course, in a person everything is connected, redundancy and deficiency are also connected. This makes it somewhat more difficult, it may seem that the problems are too great. But you can start small. And step by step go further, work for yourself.
Working with one, we inevitably touch the other. And the appropriation of the skill of stopping excessive mental excitement and anxiety - adds a sense of security. And also, on the contrary, when the deficits in the psyche are replenished, the need for the production of excess arousal decreases.
