What if I say that you are not going to have another panic attack? I will never blame you if you speculate when I say that you will not undergo another attack. I understand that you have gone through a lot of programs, medications, therapies to fight your panic disorder which were of little or no help. But the simple mantra is Break the vicious cycle of fear of having another attack or else you will never be able to free from panic and anxiety disorder, no matter what treatment you try. The mordant thought of having another panic attack is the main culprit that never allows you to free yourself from anxiety and you become more vulnerable and prone to panic attack. There are two categories of panic disorder patience, those who completely wipe panic out of their lives, and those who cannot. The key is only one and it does not require much of your money to help you. You just need sheer logic and a desire to live a fear-free life for which you need to keep in mind the below mentioned facts; Panic attacks are never terrifying but not harmful, so another attack will not do any harm to you.
Think logically. Avoiding the circumstances and areas where you have the history of a panic attacks does not actually help. You are just escaping from a normal life. Are not you?
Sit down and contemplate to identify the leitmotif of your fear. What exactly ailing you? Why are you scared of a particular situation? What is the exact thing you are scared of?
Once you have identified the scary situations, objects or places, analyze the whole scenario, and ask yourself, do they worth fearing? Are they really scary? Is there any valid reason for your fear?
The fear cannot be validated as there are never enough reasons which you can accumulate from your memory warehouse.
A logical outlook will help you deduce the fact that there is no actual basis for your anxiety and panic. This is the time when you should bring about positive changes to your life-style keeping in mind that your fears are actually baseless. The life-style changes could be taking a morning walk to the nearby childrens park, little exercise, read inspiring books. You just need to start enjoying your life.
The next step would be going to the places you are very much scared of, with a trusted friend or a family memberbefore going just ask yourself why should I be scared of? Remember the logic you have given yourself earlier.
If you are scared of a situation, accept the challenge yourself and appear for the ordeal, you are logically equipped to fight that situation. Trust your own self, you are not weak. Fear and anxiety are not going to solve your problems; if you wish to change the situation for better then stop worrying. Everything depends upon the strength of your Will and how desperately you want to kick anxiety and panic out of your life. There are medications to give you temporary freedom from anxiety and panic. But in no way they can help you understand how illogical your fear is and how you should free yourself from them. Coping with panic and anxiety nowhere near to complete freedom from these disorders, it is like accepting the wrong and living with it. Just say no to your lugubrious life by throwing unnecessary dreadful thoughts and anxiety away of your mind. |
