The past couple of years I’ve been providing therapy online to people in Venezuela. The main themes from my small sample are depression, anxiety and relational conflicts. While those difficulties exist for reasons they might exist anywhere, they are also linked to the current contextual realities of Venezuela: inconsistencies in electricity and WiFi, gas shortages and an inability to count on public transportation being available, violence and assaults, etc. A client recently described how, because of the frequency of the problems, it begins to just feel normal. And then sometimes given the normalcy of it, one can forget it exists and then depression, anxiety and relational conflicts seem like a problem with one’s mind or relationship as opposed to a highly stressful context. It feels so obvious in Venezuela but I guess I believe people everywhere internalize what is happening in their society.

The parts of our brain that primarily engage with emotions are faster to respond than those linked to reason. Many foreign language experiences are not as emotionally entrenched as those in one’s native language. So In other words, if you want a non reactive and reasonable response, talk to people in their second language. If you are a binational couple, sometimes it is helpful to alternate the language in which you argue!

“There are two kinds of people. One kind, you can just tell by looking at them at what point they congealed into their final selves. It might be a very nice self, but you know you can expect no more suprises from it. Whereas, the other kind keep moving, changing... They are fluid. They keep moving forward and making new trysts with life, and the motion of it keeps them young. In my opinion, they are the only people who are still alive. You must be constantly on your guard against congealing.” Gail Godwin

I am arriving home after dark after a marathon day of meeting with patients. My heart feels exceedingly full from being able to sit with people during their darkest hours. Here a few messages I would want to send out to the planet.
1. You are worthy of love.
2. You are more than your experience. Sometimes there are things that happen to you but they are not who you are.
3. Things will not always be as they are today. It can get better.
4. It is okay to feel what you are feeling and it doesn’t make you bad or weak to have feelings.
5. You didn’t deserve what happened to you.
6. Just because you cannot see how things can improve, doesn’t mean they can’t.
7. You are more important to others than you realize. You matter.
8. You are genuinely amazing and beautiful and brilliant and funny and creative.

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?' Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”
