Avatar f tn Have you tried focused slow breathing, walking, aromatherapy, acupuncture, massage, redirect by doing something? Also...low Vitamin D3 and magnesium can contribute to anxiety and depression.
Avatar f tn To overcome anxiety, one must understand the logic of why the brain is feeling threatened, it sends messages to the body saying its under threat. New pathways need to be created to overcome the old programming. So for example, if you panic over a fear of flying, you must start flying and let the brain realise that its all okay, and reprogram the thoughts. However, the fear of dying can't really be practiced. Some buddhists meditate in a morgue as it is the closest we can get to dying.

Avatar n tn I have developed a fear of heights that has interfered with my ability to enjoy my favorite winter sport...snow skiing. The anxiety produced when confronted with height creates what is near panic. The fear only exhibits itself primarily on the ground and outside.. I do not have a fear of flying in a jet airplane or inside tall buildings. It has become a real problem for me to enjoy skiing.
Avatar m tn Agreed. But some of these fears can be overcome. Puppies and chicks tend to be fast moving. Find the right kind of puppy at a pound or store, and I bet his response will be different.
976897 tn?1379167602 I do not know the figures but I think that your idea that the majority of HF it is due to ischemia it is not correct. In fact a few days ago that HF exist in about 2% of everyone older than 70 years. Nevertheless, consider my case, I have a very large portion of my heart death because I delayed too long to look for assistance while my heart attack. However, after proper stenting, the nuclear test shows good perfusion. I guess that in such cases it could work.
Avatar m tn scarlett11 Try a sleep app that has dozens of recordings of therapists telling you how to go to sleep. You get to select which one you want to listen to, and I often listen to the same recording for months. Sometimes I fall asleep in the first few minutes but for that to work, I have to pay attention to what the speaker says.
Avatar m tn I was trying to get assurance on one symptoms, another symptoms I will pickup from the internet, like this cycle continuing, While browsing the anxiety I came across a word Variant Angina(which is without blockage, your arteries will go to temporary spasm/stop blood) I somehow manage to overcome this fear after lot of efforts but, one setback came, that, the way to diagnose is to hyperventilate the patient & do EKg. Since then i got more feared.
Avatar m tn but dont know how to overcome my own problem... Please let me know what should I do to overcome my depression.......very tough to get this out of my brain !!! If there is a problem there must be a solution or way which will relieve me from mental tension !!!
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 That is how OCD works. That is why a psychologist who teaches cognitive behavioral therapy would be in your best interest. You really don't know how to counter these thoughts. You need to learn how to stop them when they start and not let them go on and on leading you to the catastrophizing thought. It is pretty amazing how our mind can latch on to something and trick us. That is what it is really...a trick of the mind that puts us at war with ourselves.

Avatar f tn I mean I can masturbate to them without a problem, but as soon as I’m done all the doubt just starts to set in again. I’m trying, I swear to go I’m trying to just calm myself and not react to anything but it feels helpless. There are more important things going on in the world right now it seems unfair that being gay is all I think about. Please, if you have any advice I’ll be glad to listen.
Avatar f tn worried about the attack, sometimes I thought of just hack care it, go enjoy myself and started to plan something but my fear or worried will just come naturally ,my head will start to be very tense as if my blood pressure is shooting high, like I'm going to get stroke? I don't know why, I kept telling myself it's ok just relax, but the horrid feeling make me stop my planning again, my children is sad that I always disappoint them. I'm very sad too.
Avatar f tn Things that are worth being happy for, things that make you smile or things you have been blessed with. Then task yourself at the end of the day, no matter how bad that day was, to name out loud a positive of the day. Example: my car got rear ended today and I lost 20 dollars in cash. Positive: the lady who hit me has insurance and she was so nice. I'm thankful my baby is okay, what an amazing thing that our bodies are so protective for our unborn child!
