Stop Anxiety and Panic Attacks

Anxiety Disorder:
How can the rest of us be sensitive to those who have it?

I think being understanding is the key, but also motivating/supportive. Encourage an anxious person to take gradual steps to overcoming the things that they’re anxious about. Offering to be with them is a great help and can break down the fear of a situation, if someone you trust and get along with does it with you a few times. I think people shouldn’t just agree with the person with anxiety’s negative thoughts to try and protect them or through fear of being rude. Deep down the person probably knows that their fears are irrational, so if you agree with them when you really don’t they’re likely to feel patronised and not trust you. Instead people without anxiety should share their positive coping skills, to enable the person with anxiety to see how emotionally healthy people function and take tips from them.

If the anxiety is around social situations…I try to make myself go to social events that appeal to me but I find it hard when people attempt to try to make me talk in front of big groups. So I’d say that in group situations its better to talk to an anxious person 1-1 first. Once they’re relaxed around one person they’re likely to be relaxed around the rest of the group too and feel more confident. If people push too hard too soon it makes me personally freeze and close up most of the time.

People have a tendancy to dismiss social anxious/shy people as being dull and assume they’re not outgoing because they have nothing to say. I think people can be senstive by giving anxious people time to come out of their shell. By doing so you’ll get to know them properly and also increase their confidence around social interaction as they may have negative thoughts that people won’t like them and this will be proved wrong.

I am an ex sufferer of social anxiety disorder and my friend Janey http://www.youtube.com/janeyfromkorea has kindly arranged this Q and A session for us.

I am answering questions from http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rtFAayZDfMw apologies if I missed a couple out, please nudge me if I have.

I am living proof that there is a light at the end of the tunnel and there is a way out of having social phobia/anxiety.

Please feel to ask more questions on this video.

I have recently noticed that when I spend a day with my boyfriend and he leaves, I get really emotional, I start to cry and cry for days, I worry for him and it affects my daily life. It’s becoming a problem and I need to go and talk to someone, who would be the right person to talk to?

I have about three symptoms of a Separation Anxiety Disorder and I believe that is the issue at hand here.

Help and advice is majorly appreciated.

You will want to see a psychologist, or a physician that can properly diagnosis your ASAD.

If you want you should try keeping a wearable memorabilia of your boyfriend, so whenever he leaves you can look at the "thing" and gain satisfaction in the remembrance that with it, though space separates you two, your love always unites.

Also methods that cause feelings of self-security can be repeated and anxiety can be reduced.

If your anxiety cannot be helped in the ways mentioned, time-line psychoanalytic therapy will help you discover, and deal with your trust issues that cause you to feel this overwhelming sense of grief.
