According to the US National Institute of Mental Health. UU., There are several varieties of anxiety disorders. One of the most common is general anxiety disorder. It is characterized by constant excessive anxiety, tension and fear, which are independent of external factors and may be accompanied by physical manifestations such as a "nervous stomach", shortness of breath and heart palpitations.
Anxiety disorder is different from stress. Stress is a typical reaction of an organism to external pressure or a threat. This is normal. Anxiety, on the other hand, is an abnormal reaction when common things like social interactions, paying bills or going to work cause fear.
If you have an anxiety disorder, your favorite word is probably "calm down." But the fact is that you can't just calm down.
We would like to use only this word so that all the discomfort disappeared, but unfortunately it is not so, although I must also say that it is not impossible, with training you will overcome and face with normality those situations that today make you feel bad. Rather than using the word calm, I prefer to think that everything comes out.
Relaxation practices will help your body control anxiety attacks.
Mark this word yourself: "practice." This is what you should do every day, regardless of whether you have an anxiety attack or not. When you practice relaxation, you accustom the brain to this state, and when you need to relax, it will not be something new and unknown to him.
For your peace of mind, I must tell you that anxiety, even if it is unbearable, will not endanger your life. It is a temporary situation, then you will regain control over yourself and you will feel good again.
It is a path to follow, but together we will say goodbye to this stage of our life.
