An allergy is a reaction of the body to external stimuli.
The body's immune system thus shows us that it is difficult for it to cope with these irritants and "asks" us not to contact them. But, according to psychologists, one of the causes of allergies is our psychosomatics. The human nervous system is too obsessed with certain substances, which leads to the manifestation of allergy symptoms. In modern psychology, there is such a statement that all diseases arise on a nervous basis - after experienced stress, against the background of depression. It is safe to say that it is true. But how to be? Indeed, in the modern world, we are faced with stress many times every day. Nowadays, there are many books that can help to understand and understand why this or that type of allergy has arisen. These publications are united by one main idea - a person suffering, denying his own strength, dependent on the opinions of others and touchy, thus sowing fertile ground for the development of allergies.
A person must do daily work on himself. Change your beliefs. To understand that the world around him is not an enemy, that everything around was created only for help and benefit.
Causes
Probably, each of us at least once in our lives, after communicating with a person, said: “I can’t communicate with him, I’m just allergic to him.” This is where it all begins ... We set our brain to an allergy. And, of course, we receive it, as ordered. Our body gives us what we ask of it.
Constant dissatisfaction with the course of your life provokes the appearance of an allergy to the objects around you. Such consequences are caused by doing something that is not your favorite, the absence of a hobby, as a kind of unloading, an unhappy marriage. In these cases, an allergy is necessary for the body, as a form of renunciation of violence against itself and coercion to something.
Let's now look at some types of allergies and the psychological causes of their occurrence.
Allergy to dust most often occurs in people who are panicking about cleanliness in the house. They give it too much importance. At the sight of only a speck of dust, they begin to cause allergy symptoms (sneezing, nasal congestion, lacrimation). The body will definitely give a reaction to such “urges” and “requests”. At the same time, a person rarely listens to the comments of relatives and friends.
Next, consider the causes of allergies to animals. As a rule, this type of allergy is caused by the personal hostility of the animal. Perhaps the pet appeared in the house against your will and you want to get rid of it in every possible way, showing allergic reactions. Another reason may be sad memories from childhood. These include dog bites, fright. An allergy to an animal is a kind of protest against it.
First of all, it is necessary to compare events and facts. Set the time of manifestation of allergic reactions and attribute it to some event. During stress, anger, manifestations of anger, people seize these emotions. This is how food allergies appear. This allergy can also occur when eating with a person who is not pleasant to you. If you have a big grudge against a friend, then his favorite foods will definitely cause you an allergy. If you limit yourself to the consumption of your favorite treats that brought you pleasure, allergic manifestations to these products are also possible.
This disease usually affects young girls and boys. This category of people is emotionally unstable, highly dependent on the opinions of others. To justify the hopes of society, they try to lose weight by setting the brain not to take any food. Thus, they fall into an emotional dependence, which is very, very difficult to get rid of.
Anorexia sufferers should turn to psychologists and psychotherapists, and not headlong to nutritionists and allergists. The psychological causes of allergy to pollen and flowering can be explained by the following examples. The young man decided to part with the girl, and in parting brought her a bouquet of flowers. In the future, not only the girl will be allergic to this type of flower, but also the young man, as he may feel guilty.
Another example: during the period of violent flowering of various plants, a man or woman loses a person close to him. Such a loss will always be associated with this period, and will manifest itself in the form of an allergy to pollen.
For example, choking attacks, when everyone around will try to help him. Children often suffer from lack of attention. It is the neglect of parents that leads their children to the disease. Many believe that they must suffer to be loved. The feeling of pity for them is the main indicator of the manifestation of love and care.
Psychologists, in order to prove that psychosomatics is the cause of allergies in patients, conducted many experiments with allergic people. The patient was put into a state of hypnosis, given a setting and placed in an environment full of allergens. The study found that in such conditions, no symptoms of allergy in humans did not appear.
