How to Get Rid of Panic and Anxiety
Panic, anxiety, stress, and fear work in harmony. What initiates one or the other depends on the
situation, however generally it starts in this order. Fear, stressors, stress, anxiety, and panic respectively are
the order in which we deal with panic and anxiety. What can we do to get rid of panic and anxiety? First, we can
learn to understand what it means to us, find its purpose, and start the process of eliminating the problems.
We can start by considering stress. How do you relate and react to stressors that promote stress? Did you know that
stress is common and that occurs in our life everyday? Did you know stress could work in your favor? Stress is
changes and how we adjust determines the level of stress.
Most people think negative when they consider stress. This is the first problem we want to eliminate. Therefore,
you will need to work toward positive thinking to minimize stress, and get rid of anxiety and panic.
Consider death. Death is one of the major causes of stress, which stems from various sources with the top dog being
fear. Think, do you have control of death? No, you do not. Do you have the ability to stop death? No, you do not.
Do you have the ability to do something now before death occurs, yes? Review an example with me to see how the
situation can change in your favor, while death is involved.
If you fear, death is it possible to enhance your health by modifying your lifestyle to live longer. Sure it is. Is
it possible you can search for resources that will help you cope with death? Yes, many resources are available.
What if a loved one dies? Do you have control? No, but you do have the ability to learn from the death. What caused
the death of the loved one? Was it poor health caused from disease? Possibly the loved one died of diabetes. Can
you get regular checkups? Could you change your diet to avoid the same disease? What can you do? Thinking often
leads to answers, which can point you in a positive direction. Therefore, the example is, think of someone who died
in your family, which you were close to and consider how you dealt with the problem. Now, use your findings to see
how you can cope with the stress that resulted from the death.
Some of the other problems that cause stress, which leads to anxiety and panic attacks is injury. Some people fall
to injury and pity self for the course of their life, while others find a way to live with the injury. Possibly
paralysis has claimed your ability to function as a whole. Can you live with paralysis? Of course, you can and many
people have proven this fact. Thus, think positive and consider what you can still accomplish in life, rather than
allowing the injury to control you and cause you to panic from overwhelming anxiety.
What are your fears? Are you fears valid? Do your fears protect you or cause you harm? Overall, there are two types
of fear with one being a deep respect and the other being a grave hazardous. Are you afraid of heights? Heights
were one of my deepest fears that could have destroyed me, since when close to heights; I became overwhelmingly
anxious, which lead to grave panic. I would often pass out; blackout and the like while close to heights. I dealt
with my fears, facing the fear head on and became the master of my own fear. Now I am in control and fear is not an
issue. Can you overcome your fears?
