control over that was inadvertly invented by our society. Should have shot the guy that invented the clock. But his intention was for accurate navigation, not being at a prescribed place at a specific time with no control of a red flagged construction worker blocking you for 30 minutes while a cement crew plays around.
At the recommendation of my neuro I did attempt stress management, what a contradictory term! The first phase was being connected to an electronic device, some type of alpha wave biofeedback contraption. That was simple enough, just simply go braindead and the meter will drop to zero, therapist commented that he never saw the meter go that low. I said simple enough you try harder by not trying at all.
The second phase is rather extensive counseling which boils down to a simple method of learning how to say "screw it." Or another more vulgar term. Was it helpful in controlling CH's? No.
