Panic and anxiety are always unwanted visitors as far as anyone is concerned. Anxiety in a way, robs people of their everyday life because when anxiety occurs, the feelings it brings about are all the anxiety sufferer can think about.
People who experience anxiety and panic say they feel as if they are out of their minds or they feel unreal. Actually, anxiety sufferers are not at all out of their minds. They are in fact, normal. Panic and the unreal feelings it brings about are caused by adrenaline. It is the nervous system that is not quite right, it isn't anything associated with the mind. Anxiety may have something to do with one's thought process, but it isn't insanity.
This article is a discussion about just what is happening to a person who is having an anxiety or panic attack. It also gives advice about handling anxiety is such a way one can begin to overcome this condition.
Doing the Tighten Up
We often here the old saying, "go with the flow." With anxiety disorder these are very wise words. Nervousness is a human response to fighting or running away from something. So, when our nervousness brings about feelings that are very uncomfortable, often we respond by fighting or running away from these feelings. This is leads to the nervousness intensifying and this nervousness may before long, turn into a full blown panic attack.
When panic comes over us, it brings about feelings that often make us feel sick. Because of this, we try to fight them off or overcome them by force. This is the same as fighting and since anxiety is brought about by the fight or flight (run away) response, the panic becomes worse. Then, if we fight harder the panic intensities even more.
After an anxiety attack has come and gone and the anxiety sufferer feels good, he or she can make the mistake of fearing an another onslaught of panic. This can happen because the sufferer feels well and wants to always feel this way. So, he or she makes sure to be on guard so at the slightest sign of nervousness, the anxiety can be successfully fought off.
Doing this will often help intensify nervousness into panic. It is when we are constantly trying to prevent panic from ever returning we go through our day constantly tense in hope this will somehow prevent anxiety when actually, it is bringing it on.
A Passive Attitude
The bottom line is, learning to give up fighting and stopping running away from panic is the key to gaining freedom from it. For a while after we give up fighting, panic will still visit us but it will quickly lose is sting as we accept it.
Developing the attitude of letting panic do to you whatever it will is the way to lessening the severity of each panic attack as they occur. In time, and maybe you will be surprised how short a time, no panic at all will occur because by ignoring the symptoms of panic, such as feelings of unreality, you will have taken the teeth out of panic. When there is nothing to fear, there is nothing left to fight, no adrenaline and so, no panic. - 16955
