Saying Goodbye to Stress

Anxiety disorders are often a product of stress. From GAD (generalized anxiety disorder) to panic disorder, you can cut back on the anxiety in your life simply by reducing stress. Stress is normal in daily life no matter who you are, but if you let your stress take control of your life, serious problems will arise. Fortunately, ongoing stress is easy to overcome, but it is important to know the steps to doing so.

Stress is an internal reaction triggers by external factors, like pressure. One of the best ways to overcome these reactions is with plenty of exercise. Daily exercise can help you learn to physically deal with stress by improving your tolerance to stress during exercise. During a panic attack, most people feel short of breath and a pounding heart. A hard workout gives you these same experiences, but in a healthy way. AS you exercise more and more, you push your body to accept these conditions without panicking.

Getting a good night’s sleep is also very important to reducing stress. Stress can physically wear out a person’s body, and without sleep, you will feel the effects of stress much more readily. This can lead to anxiety disorders very easily. To get enough sleep, make sure that you schedule at least 8 hours for sleeping. Don’t eat or drink lots of sugar or caffeine products before bedtime and try to do relaxing activities in the few hours before bedtime. If necessary, see your doctor f or help with sleeping problems.

Another key to reducing stress is to schedule time for non-work related activities. Take vacations or at least days off in order to have fun. Work is a major cause of stress, and with that stress comes worry about money, health, and many other things. By setting aside specific time to enjoy yourself with loved ones or on your own, you can physically and mentally set aside the stress for at least a few hours. Try to have at least an hour to yourself every day and an entire long weekend every few months to purely enjoy fun activities.

Lastly, work to reduce stress by learning to think a bit differently about life. Some of the most stressed-out people are perfectionists. While this can be a good trait, it can also go too far. Know when to let something go. Also, think positively about your life. When you worry that you aren’t good enough or are upset about little things, they really add up to hurt you. Managing your thought process is just part of the battle, but if you work at reducing stress, you can avoid developing anxiety problems.

I have suffered with Anxiety Disorder for the last 8 years. I have done so much research just trying to cure myself of this debilitating illness. I have finally found the answer. This article is to familiarize you with what Anxiety Disorder is and to see if this is what you are suffering from. There are a number of stressful medical conditions affecting Americans, but one of the broadest topics are anxiety disorders. Millions suffer from anxiety disorders to some degree or another, and the specific disorders vary greatly from person to person. Anxiety disorders grow progressively worse without treatment, so if you think you may be suffering from one of these illnesses, seek treatment. The treatment that worked for me can be found HERE. One of the most common kinds of anxiety disorders is panic disorder. This disorder is one in which the person has unexpected anxiety or panic attacks repeatedly. These have a range of intensities and can be controlled with medical care and behavioral control. Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder is also very common. With this anxiety disorder, the sufferer has uncontrollable and unwanted urges to perform a certain task, such as closing a door a certain number of times. There are also types of anxiety disorders that do not have to do with genetic conditions. The most readily available examples of this are from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) victims. These anxiety disorder patients have persistent frightening thoughts and memories of an event that was extremely stressful, such as a car wreck or a military battle. Phobias also fall under the category of anxiety disorders. People can fear a number of things, including small spaces (claustrophobia), spiders (arachnophobia), or any number of other things. Phobias are usually irrational and very intense and increase with proximity to the feared item or being placed in the feared situation will usually cause a panic attack. Many people suffering from an anxiety disorder are simply diagnosed with GAD, or Generalize Anxiety Disorder. GAD is a condition in which the person is experiencing anxiety and worry in levels higher than typical, but they are not having panic attacks or experiencing other medical conditions. Anxiety disorders can affect all people, regardless of age, economic status, race, religion, or gender. The good news is that the medical treatment for these disorders is getting more and more influential every day. The key is to catch the anxiety disorder problem before it begins to ruin your life.  Each anxiety disorder is different, and each specific disorder is different within each person experiencing it.

Jocelyn Snider asked: I need to know as much as possible about anxiety & panic attacks, Please Help!!!

Anxiety attacks can happen anytime, anywhere when you least expect it.

Anxiety is what we always feel when we are in a tense situation, like studying harder for a major exam, rendering a speech in front of many people, or going on a blind date where you don’t know what to expect; even a bride definitely feel anxious on her wedding day (maybe thinking, what if she’ll be stood up by her groom! What a terrifying thought!). If you feel anxious or fear for certain circumstances or things and with logical reasons to be, it is just a normal and rational response. But, if you feel unexpected surges of overwhelming dread that comes without warning and for no reason at all, it is no longer regular anxiety but anxiety attack.

Anxiety attacks are far more intense than having the feeling of being stressed or anxious that most people experience. It is described as a sudden attack of intense fear or feelings of impending fate or disaster that strike without warning and for no apparent reason. And this can be immediately followed by several symptoms. These are caused by a shift in the way the Amygdala, the small organ in the brain which regulates the anxiety response, behaves when confronted with an anxiety provoking thought, sensation or situation. Anxiety attacks occur when a level of anxiety is reached which causes the Adrenalin to produce severe symptoms which reach a peak in just a matter of minutes. The peak of an attack can range anywhere from 5 to 30minutes, but the symptoms may last a little longer. The symptoms of anxiety attacks are completely harmless, although they can be very frightening. Anxiety attacks belong to a group of anxiety disorder, like panic disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and agoraphobia.

Some of the symptoms of anxiety attack are intense heartbeat, difficulty of breathing, palpitation, nausea, excessive sweating and trembling, chest pains, fearful of going crazy or about to die, sudden chills, and the like. Some people may experience different or more anxiety attack symptoms but this does not mean that their condition is far worse or that you are suffering from different undiagnosed condition. And because we are all different, the symptoms during anxiety attacks can vastly vary. You might not find among the listed anxiety attack symptoms what you are experiencing and you’ll start to think there’s something very wrong with you. The list is just a guide only. Everyone reacts differently.

Anxiety attacks are always a sign of underlying anxiety disorder which itself can be treated successfully with or without having to go through medication or costly therapy. Linden Method offers a cure on panic and anxiety attacks. According to this method, anxiety attacks are not a sign of illness. The way to cure it is to eliminate the causes that trigger anxiety attacks.

1. Accept the fact that there are some things in your life that you are not happy with: your job, your relationship, your body. There is always a root to your anxiety and panic. You may panic in a certain situation, which probably has no relation to the real issue. Are you really afraid or terrified of a mall, or being inside of a car?
2. Try to start overcoming your fears, and to let go of your “safety behaviours”. This is very important, as it allows you to retrain your mind into letting you again believe that there isn’t a danger in going to the mall, or driving a car. You have told your mind that these things are putting your body in danger, and your body is reacting to the threat. But really, there is not a threat at the time, your mind is tricking your body. If, for instance, there was a real threat then your body would respond as necessary. This is what our bodies are designed to do.
3. Become familiar with, and comfortable going through your bodily sensations again. When we suffer from panic attacks, our bodies almost forget to recognize the symptoms as being normal. Our minds think we are in danger, therefore triggering more symptons and, well, you can see the vicious cycle. Once you familiarize yourself with these sensations, you can re-train your mind to know that this is your body’s way of reacting, you are not in danger, and there is no need to get scared or panic.
4. Practice going over your bodily sensations at home or wherever you feel comfortable. Gradually you’ll be able to go for longer periods of time. Once you know the sensation, and that your body can handle quite a bit of it, you can tell yourself that this is a normal reaction for your body and nothing is going to happen to you.
5. Move onto another sensation, like depersonalization. [WARNING: Do not try this if you have,or think you may have, dissociative disorder or PTSD. Incest and child sexual abuse survivors are particularly vulnerable to dissociation.] This can be very frightening for someone who doesn’t know the meaning. This occurs when you feel that your mind is not in the moment, but your body is. It can be very scary, but in fact, it is another normal bodily function. When we are in situations we are used to and don’t need to give much attention to, we tend to drift. For example, if you take the same route to work everyday, and one day get to work and think, “Wow, I don’t even remember going through the last set of lights!.” This is depersonalization. We don’t get anxious in those scenarios, but when it happens during a panic attack, it can bring the anxiety to a higher level. For this, try standing in front of the mirror, staring at yourself, not saying a word. After awhile, you are going to start feeling as if your mind and body are in different places. Keep trying this. Go for longer and longer periods until you are comfortable with the sensation.
6. Teach your mind that it is normal for your heart rate to increase/decrease throughout the day. Sometimes during an attack, your heart may start racing and this might lead you to believe that you’re having a heart attack. The mind often then tricks the body to react even more, therefore starting the cycle of an attack. You can time yourself again, starting with 10 seconds of hyperventilating: breathing heavily in and out. Once you are comfortable with this, try going to 15 sec., etc. You will be surprised at how much heavy breathing your body can handle. It doesn’t have a problem adjusting at the gym when you are working out, why can’t it fluctuate any other time throughout the day? It can and will with no adverse affects.
7. Try a mind skill called scripting. This is not a physical sensation but a mental exercise. Take your fear(s) and write each one out, being very detailed and specific. Write every aspect of the fear, and don’t stop even at the point when you think you are done. Make sure that you write out the final consequence. Then take this story of yours and read it over and over and OVER again. It may be scary and difficult to do in the beginning but, eventually, you will see how silly it sounds. And it will become clear that it is truly “just a story”. Over time you will find yourself desensitized to it and not have to get scared over your thoughts again, for they really are “just thoughts”.
8. Avoid taking alcohol as a way to relax. Alcohol is easy to consume and easy to get and can cause problems since it is a depressant and dependence can occur.
