But it still gets to me. I just want to know tips from fellow anxiety sufferers or paranoia sufferers, how do you cope with this? can we possibly move on? its like I know I have no risk but like something holds me back and ***** me into a bottomless pit of misery.
Avatar f tn Chronic anxiety, social phobias, post-traumatic stress syndrome, etc. are normal parts of the day-to-day life, and it is necessary to learn how to get rid of them rather than living with them. It's normal to get anxious before addressing a group of people or stress out before your first meeting with a new client.
Avatar f tn I have a great book that teaches the brain how to overcome anxiety and panic attacks that I can email to you.
Avatar f tn The groinal response is really annoying and I want to overcome it. The fact that I’m not reacting to these thoughts as frightened as I was in the past has made me believe I am gay. The fact that I’m not the most feminine girl makes me believe I’m am a lesbian. If anyone has tips to over come this please help. The past few months I couldn’t be in public because of how overwhelming the thoughts were. I know I can’t cure OCD but I want to go back to being a 100% straight happy teen.
Avatar m tn I'm a 14 year old male. I don't think I have any anxiety disorder or anything like that, but I am always worried; and I will have an incredibly anxiety attack every now and then, primarily about my health and well-being, especially because I have made many obviously horrible mistakes that ruined my health. And whenever I have an anxiety attack that is especially severe, I start having thoughts of ending it all. However, once I calm down, those thoughts go away.
Avatar n tn That part is up to you. I wish you well.
Avatar f tn I just want to know if it is possible to overcome anxiety without medicines. I'm scare of taking them and become addicted or affected by the side effects. I think i'm getting better. I'm startint to look forward to family reunions and activities related to the holidays and i actually get excited thinking about christmas. The only thought that keeps coming back is the fear of end up not loving my daughter.
Avatar m tn You think about who you could contact to go with you to these treatments, how you get there, how you get back. how you would tell your boss and who could step in to do the work at your job while you are absent. The steps you would take sequentially to arrange your private affairs. Steps you would take to do something you had always wanted to do but have never got around to. Think about what you would do if the treatment worked--what special things might you do to celebrate.
Avatar m tn I am struggling to overcome the fact that I do not in fact have HIV. It is a daily struggle accepting this because I feel like having unprotected sex once doomed me with HIV and that I deserved it. Trust me, this is dysfunctional thinking. I have always been somewhat of a perfectionist and felt that making that mistake once was not acceptable. I spoke with my family and friends about overcoming this mental anxiety and with church groups and outside organizations but it is a constant battle.
Avatar f tn To be honest, it makes me feel bad to hide this from my husband but if I have to get professional help, I will have to tell him. I would like to see how far I can go by managing this by myself before I think I am falling off the wagon again. Then maybe I do have to tell him. I would like to tell you that I am very appreciative of your response. It is not everyday that I get to talk about this with someone.
Avatar f tn How do I overcome sadness at not being able to fit in, The only place I am really happy is with my husband and children, I only feel secure going out if one of them is with me. People in local community think I'm weird when I'm really just shy. I have also overheard people saying I fancy everybody, which is so mean and untrue. I simply get flustered talking to anybody outside my family because of the social anxiety. Help, anybody?
Avatar f tn I have had it subside Ten-Fold since I started on Effexor XR. I still have "moments" but I feel my feelings are much more in check now. I have also done alot of reading. I highly recommend the book "The Anxiety and Phobia Workbook" by Edmound Bourne. I picked it up at my library, and it was easy to read and had tips on how to "ride out" your anxiety.
1390847 tn?1344657468 I have learned that facing your fear is the best way to overcome it, you'll learn that the only thing to really fear about vomiting is the fear itself. I can only base this on my own experiences. Before I had children I had a horrible fear of seeing someone after they've fallen and hit their head and I would run the other way. I had my first child and he fell on the side walk and my first instinct was to run but this was my little boy and his well being meant more to me than my fear.
Avatar f tn ve been where you are and I am honestly still trying to overcome anxiety and worry. I saw a therapist once and she told me I wasn't that bad off and that I just needed to keep track of my worries in a journal and my negative thoughts to try and see where the anxiety was coming from.
Avatar f tn Anxiety is a hard thing to deal with. He needs to research things that can help him calm. Tips and techiniques that he can practice when he begins to feel anxious. Another thing that would be good for him but he will have to want to do it himself. He needs to step out of his comfort zone begin socializing and maybe having a meal with another person. This part is hard but my son is starting as a freshman year of highschool at a new school.

739988 tn?1386672969 It depends how bad your fear of flying is. There are specific phobias around that. And some courses that help people learn how to overcome that. If its just generalized anxiety I'd say preparing ahead would be the best thing. Understanding the schedule and what will happen and the like. What to expect. I remember I had a similar occurence. And I had psychotic symptoms at the time as well.

Avatar m tn If you want to investigate medication, it's completely up to you. Public speaking anxiety is said to respond well to beta blockers, so if that's your one problem -- and it is said to be the most common phobia of all -- you might investigate them. Good luck.
