I had trouble with anxiety in the past - nasty panic attacks, the whole shebang. Here's what worked for me:
Talk therapy.
Several types of medication.
Kava Kava (herbal supplement - over the counter).
Eventually, I worked up to exposure therapy (facing your fear to get used to it), but I had to take a lot of small steps first.
You CAN overcome anxiety. I've been fine for several years now.
Start by contacting a good psychologist or psychiatrist - your doctor should be able to recommend one for you. He or she will be able to tailor a treatment for you.
I'd also recommend exercise. Start with 20 minutes of cardio at least 3 times a week. Work hard enough to sweat for 20 minutes - you can jog, bike, swim, whatever you like to do.
Good luck. You can do it!
learn to relax. find things to help you. I use Lavander as a smell that relaxes me, I use a little oil on my wrist, some spray on my bed sheets, and have little cotton bags with it around the house and I pick them up and squish them to emit the smell into the air. I also practise meditation and breathing excersizes. sit somewhere comfortable and quiet and allow your body to relax by tightening all your muscles and then letting them go one at a time starting at your head and working your way down. once you have done that put your hand on your stomach and practise breathing in through your nose and allowing the air to push your hand up on your stomach. It is important with anxiety to breathe from your stomach rather than your chest-this will take a lot of practise to get it down to breathe from your stomach on a regular basis. Why you would want to know hwo to do this is--at times of crisis, it helps to be able to close your eyes for a minute, breathe deep into my stomach, and my body relaxes and reduces anxiety. Good luck
Just remember you are the best person everything is gonna be ok and tell yourself that everything is gonna be fine I suffer from diffrent kinds of anxiety If you gave more detail I might be able to help you more.
I have a generalized anxiety disorder. My hands used to shake when I was anxious and everthing made me anxious.
Anxiety is physical, (clinical),behavioral, and enviromental. I had years of therapy, then I was given
an anti- anxiety medication. I still have to make good
decisions, but I am very very successful.
Everyday anxiety responds to simple measures that you can take yourself, such as regular aerobic exercise, time management, learning to let your feelings out with a trusted friend, or relaxation training. But when anxiety is severe, professional treatment is necessary. The good news is that anxiety disorders are among the most treatable emotional illnesses, and while they are certainly distressing, they are rarely dangerous.
Treatment is usually twopronged, combining drug therapy and psychotherapy. Drugs are useful for shortterm relief, while longterm improvement usually requires some behavioral and lifestyle changes.
