Stop Feeling Trapped and Reclaim Control

Are you feeling trapped in life?

Do you feel like you have little or no control?

One of the worst things in the world is to feel trapped by your situation, to feel as if you have no control and no say in the outcome.

People can become trapped by all sorts of things, such as:

• Their career
• A relationship that goes wrong
• Their financial situation
• Serious illness or injury.

Whatever your particular situation, feeling powerless runs counter to our fundamental human need for a sense of control. It is a source of serious stress.

You have other needs (beyond the physical), of course. You need security, for example, and a sense of connection, and a way to make your life meaningful.

However, it's easier to cope with shortfall in these areas than it is to cope with powerlessness.

Powerlessness really gets us where it hurts.

Not just positive thinking

Advocates of positive thinking will advise you to just look on the bright side and things will turn out all right.

And such an attitude is helpful, up to a point. It is true that encouraging yourself to be optimistic is better than sinking into depression or endless anxiety.

However, it is not helpful to cling on to unrealistic expectations that some 'miracle' will happen and fix things for you.

That is a recipe for disappointment and despair.

Identify the real trap

When the going gets really tough, and the walls of the trap feel like they're closing in, it helps to be really clear about how much of the problem lies outside you and how much lies inside you.

Getting clear about this can be tricky in the pressures of the situation.

But the good news is that it's possible to achieve a level of inner calm that will allow you to look more objectively at what is going on.

Gain the wisdom to know the difference

You may know of the famous Serenity Prayer of German pastor Reinhold Niebuhr, in which he asks for:

1. the grace to accept with serenity the things that cannot be changed,
2. the courage to change the things that should be changed,
3. the wisdom to distinguish the one from the other.

When you are deeply relaxed and calm, you can begin to tell whether the aspects of your own situation which 'should be changed' lie inside you (your own attitudes and emotions) or outside you (your actions and interactions).

You will begin to see what must be accepted.

And the next step is to summon up the courage and determination you need to respond appropriately.
