this may sound weird, but I feel too stressed to try to do them. I feel time pressures and no time to do these...plus I get frustrated and more stressed when I can't relax and defocus.

Once I rented a hypnosis video for stress, and the whole time I was watching it my mind kept wandering off, making mental lists in my head of everything I needed to do and how much time I was "wasting" watching this video. Plus, when I found myself wandering away, I would get more stressed because I couldn't make myself relax.

I am in a vicious cycle here. Stress=symptoms=Stress. And also Stress=Need to do yoga, meditation, hypnosis=More stress at not being able to relax enough to do them=More symptoms and stress.

Did that make sense? I know it's hard for others to understand the reasoning, but it is so very hard and frustrating for me to try and do hypnosis when I can't do it correctly. So, I keep putting it off so I don't have to get stressed about not being able to "let go" and do it correctly.

Now there's more info than anyone ever needed to know! Guess I could have just said, "I tried to do it, but got more stressed because I couldn't do them correctly which defeats the purpose of them" but that would have been too easy.
