Isn't it krazy

5 Replies

I think anxiety is the most terrible disease,

A disease without any actuall disease that follows. I say this because it's like going through cancer, heart attack , stroke and brain tumor all in one......so for today take your first step to recovery and accept this . By accepting meaning when these feelings come just go with the flow dont fight it, dont look for answers dont question it...just let it come do its thing. By doing this you may trick the mind in thinking this is realy nothing by the fear response. Less fear less symptoms, symptoms may not go away asap but they will gradually subside in time..

I got this instructions on youtube and followed through, it is very hard but I think the more you follow the more you will see progress..

I was at the barber last week, the minute I sat on the chair and he covered me up, I just had this adrenaline rush through my body, I wanted to just get up and be like it's ok I'll pay you whatever I just gotta go...but looked in the mirror and was like dam half my head is faded and the other looks like whoa...so I sat in fear response and tried this attempt to let the rush just rush in and pay no attention just let it be..soon it was gone,..this normally doesnt happen...anyways I think it made so much sense that I tricked my mind into thinking i dont care and it just gave up...I'll challenge anyone to this and let me know how it went...dont give up keep pushing. This is your motivation positive note for today , god bless you

I don't know why doctor's dont talk about it as in a Serious & Insidious nature that it is! Such as them speaking about any other serious physical disease ,which Anxiety is Both!!

Doctors may not talk much about it after ruling your health out over and over, the reason is because now it's in the hands on psychiatrist. But it is the battle between illness and not realy being with an actuall illness...although this is an actuall illness..the innerself illness. Because its ourselves who make up these feelings. It's not easy said then done. I'm learning more everyday as I myself is still battling , but I choose now not to look at questioning my symptoms to often and focus on the positive outcomes. Remember by looking for a overnight cure or quick cure is only making our minds more anxious and negativity stays afloat because were thinking if this dont work or what's tonight going to be like..that constand negative thinking sets us in a state of anxiety. So in order for us to break free we must fill our minds with positive thoughts. Yes there will not be success at everything but instead of thinking negative about a certain situation turn it into positive. So for example I'm going to an acupuncturist today , I'm skeptical and what if it doesnt do what I'm thinking it will do, and then what I'm back to sqaure one...take that situation and say ok I'm going to acupuncture today let's go for broke, I'm doing this because I want to help myself ,now if it dont work as i thought it would, well I'm not at the end of the road let's move on to another sort of treatment. Or maybe the first was just the beginning let's do it again...just keep the positive ball rolling sooner or later I believe we will overcome the negative points in life..this should keep your mind 24/7 positive and then itll be much easier to conquer anxiety....we see so many people who say well it's been 30 years I have tried many things but nothing seems to help..

Well I'm not judging nobody but if 30 years went by your a true fighter..but if it took 30 years then maybe the truth is we need to stop seeking in trying to cure this problem and look at the bigger picture and say maybe it's time to let it just keep coming until I'm finally as comfortable with it that sooner or later you forgot it's even there...this is the cure

The cure is in ourselves, all that matters now is how bad do you want it to come true...

Acupuncture, CBd products, ssris these are all temporary fixes. The true fix is in our mind.m

Search for the positive solutions and stop searching for what's causing these symptoms

I appreciate your insight. I like how you say we can get comfortable with the anxiety. I try to do regardless of the feelings threatening to make me retreat.

I manage to congratulate myself for the week of being with the anxiety, driving with anxiety, feeling it deeply as I kept going, finally landing upon a weekend where I will mostly be trying to find rest to recover. It’s exhausting really but I have a sliver of hope in my soul that things get better for us.

Very true what you said here. You are a brave soul for overcoming the flight response to your panic attack! Pat yourself on the back. Most people can't go against our most primal, and hardwired instinct to RUN !! LOL But on the other side of that will be freedom.
