Anxiety self help – is it possible?
The words anxiety self help conjure up images of yoga, meditation, book reading and note taking but none of these devices offer a true cure. Anxiety self help offers a simple, fast and permanent solution but only if you follow the correct program and only if that program follows a definite structure that adheres to a recognized, proven format.
Before I explain what this anxiety self help structure is that every recovered anxiety sufferer in the world has followed, I will first of all explain what an anxiety disorder is, which will lay the foundations for understanding why there is only one cure for anxiety disorders such as panic attacks, agoraphobia, obsessive compulsive disorder or post traumatic stress disorder.
When anxiety is appropriate, it offers a vital natural defense against threats but when anxiety is inappropriate, it can produce a wide range of disturbing physical and psychological symptoms. The flight or fight response which causes high anxiety, is activated by a small organ in the brain called the amygdala; this acts like an anxiety thermostat, controlling anxiety levels… it’s the ‘anxiety control center’ in humans.
When a real threat is present in our environment, the amygdala responds by preparing the body to either fight or flee from that threat but in anxiety disorders, no real, external threat is present but the amygdala doesn’t separate external threats from the physical sensations you experience around your body and it is these that it finds and responds to as the threat!
Yes, your anxiety disorder is caused because your mind finds the thoughts and sensations caused by itself and scares itself into producing more symptoms – it’s rather like scaring yourself by shouting ‘boo!’
Anxiety self help starts by recognizing this fact, breaking this cycle of fear and ‘forgetting’ the anxious habit you have created within the subconscious mind. Every recovered anxiety sufferer has done exactly this… there is no other anxiety solution… fact.
But how do you do this? Who will teach you this technique? Well, you won’t find it in a bottle of pills or a psychologists office that’s for certain… this process is simple and fast but it must be provided in a supportive, structured and continuous process of anxiety elimination.
