This shit saved my life. The problem nobody realizes with mental health is it isn’t in your head but stress and trauma stored in your body. This is why talk therapy and meds don’t work.
The guy behind TRE David bercelli figured out two things. One was, wild animals never have long lasting effects of stress and anxiety after getting attacked by predators because they instantly tremor out the stress and trauma. So a croc snaps at a zebra, zebra freaks and gets away, tremors, then goes back to grazing 1 min later like nothing ever happened. He also noticed that in 3rd world countries when in bomb shelters that after a bomb went off the kids would naturally shake, but the adults wouldn’t. Because we have all been conditioned to think shaking is weakness. So the kids would shake and end up fine and the adults wouldn’t and would go on to develop PTSD.
But we have a built in mechanism to tremor and shake to release all this pent up stress and trauma and reset our nervous systems. So all these cops, vets, and tendie eating anime jerking off NEETS who want to kill themselves just need to tremor and they’ll be fine.
All of 2019 I wanted to kill myself from derealization and depersonalization brought on by anxiety and stress because of thyroid issues. Then I found somatic experiencing and the overlapping TRE exercises. SE didn’t really work but the TRE was magic and fixed me
Here are a few screenshots of a biztard when I first started making these threads here and on Zig Forums
Main exercise is lie on ground put bottoms of your feet together with legs in a crab position and then raise your knees up a few inches and your legs will start to involuntarily tremor like your in an exorcism. And that is stress and trauma discharging from your body.
Second exercise is lie in a position like your getting ready to do a sit up. Then put inner parts of feet together. Then knees together, then move your knees outward from each other anywhere from 1-8 inches until you find a sweet spot where your legs start convulsing.
Go slow with this though. Less is more. 5-10 mins tops. Every other day
oh hey, I never thought I'd see a thread about this here.
I went to TRE workshops with a friend go got so much out of it and became a big advocate of the technique, but I didnt get so much out of it despite suffering low level chronic anxiety and tension for years. I just find i get exhausted holding that crab pose :(
so both the 1st and 2nd exercise you do until you start tremoring and just HODL for 5-10 minutes?

I tried this and can confirm: this thing significantly improved my life. you should try it if you're prone to anxiety or sadness. Just start slowly and increase overtime. Don't overdo it in the begining.
Dominic Bell
Two months ago. Started to feel a difference already after a week.
I've done a vipassana course in the past, maybe this is similar
Hudson Sanchez
I remember you from an old thread. This stuff makes me feel great.

Just want to leave a tip, I don’t do the warmups anymore, I just start shaking how I want to and then eventually the body takes over. If anyone’s struggling, try attacking it from a looser more passive approach. It requires a bit of effort from the brain, I would say 10%. Wiggling on the ground feels great and when you snap in you will remember the sensation, cultivate that before you get stressed about it not working. And yes it’s real, I’ve loosened up my chest as well as dealt with the emotions head on that were keeping me tight. It’s insane how connected it all is. Gl anons.

I just do the crab thing for around 5 minutes
Daniel Russell
i've just done casually the crab position that thing has been extremely useful in releasing my 'long term anxieties' I'm sticking to it, i haven't tried the rest You can sens both you groin and lower back vibrate, but after the first sessions,old time stress and axiety will probably resurface (before vanishing), be ready to deal with it As I was casually watching animal documentaries this past few weeks, i've noticed animals actually releasing stress this way
Jaxson Hernandez
So either do wall sits until you shake to reduce stress?
This probably has merit. All the XRP/BSV plebs shaking that they invested in something shit and they never have any anger.
Ian Johnson
did this a while ago after you posted on Zig Forums to my surprise it actually worked, maybe it was placebo, maybe not all I know is that I felt a lot more calm afterwards and have had less trouble handling stress worked a lot better than the beta blockers my doc put me on
Brandon Morris
Hi fren. Thanks again for changing my life! This time last year I had my first anxiety attack. Now I'm feeling better than ever!
Benjamin Thompson
I’m disabled and my knees are too bad to do this. feelsbadman
James Powell
Just grow new legs bro
Noah Parker
Just tried it. Got it shaking. Is the shaking supposed to fluctuate? And then just kind of stop I guess?And now my legs feel weak and I think I’m nauseous
Kevin Gutierrez
This is a great point. I was going along smoothly for a couple weeks maybe and then one day I did it and afterwards almost went into a panic attack. And I was all jittery for a day or so.... then calmed back down.
Henry Lee
No prob bro. Do you still do it semi regularly?
Thomas Cruz
For me the panic attack lasted a good month. That panic was very strange because it was both intense and pointless
Liam Evans
Only during particularly stressful periods. For some extra context. I spent months in constant anxiety, to the point it completely paralyzed me in life. Now I only have what I would consider healthy anxiety. I use TRE as a way to decompress if anxiety, intrusive thoughts, or at ws start building up.
Xavier Cruz
holy shit a month long panic attack? im already a schizo man how bad is this going to get lmao
Nathaniel Butler
That isn’t typical for sure.
This mental health doctor explains it really well. Read comments to that are asking questions and he gives real good detailed writer out responses
