Anxiety Recovery – Common Traits that are STOPPING You from Overcoming Panic and Anxiety!

When it comes to anxiety and panic disorder recovery there are plenty of things that can hold you back to fully overcome any anxiety issues. There are however very specific and common traits that many of us share and most probably are unaware of. We often feel that in order to fully get over any anxiety issues we must first address the stress symptoms. We believe that once we managed the anxiety symptoms like the rapid heartbeat, numbness, tingling or dizziness… that we then are automatically anxiety free. I believe that this is the wrong approach. Because it wasn’t a symptom that has started this whole sage but it was an overactive stress response that has jumpstarted this whole saga. You have reached an overwhelming point. This overwhelmed state is keeping you on high alert and fires up all kinds of symptoms. Simply treating the symptom will have no direct effect on your underlying stress levels. You will still be hyper-stimulated and have all kinds of anxiety symptoms. One sensation may vanish but the stress response will simply fire up another or up the intensity until you are back trapped in the vicious worry cycle. WE also tend to not trust doctors. We are unable to come to peace with a diagnosis or test result as we still feel the physical effects of our highly stressed bodies. Symptoms like blurry vision, muscle twitching, and muscle spasms are still there even though the doctor has just confirmed that we are completely fine. This leads to us digging deeper, constantly trying to find other reasons for why we feel the way we do. Its a never-ending cycle. To start recovering from anxiety you will learn to accept that anxiety is a possibility and stop forcing another diagnosis. This is the only way you can move on and concentrate on lowering stress and healthy lifestyle choices. Probably the most important factor that is holding us back from full recovery is how we deal with anxiety setbacks. Many of us have had days or even weeks feeling almost completely fine. IT was almost like we were anxiety-free and could live close to normal. Then out of nowhere, this rush of adrenaline starts pumping again and we end up in a panic. Our minds go crazy as we believe we felt anxiety symptoms without feeling anxious. We start to wonder what that just was. We weren’t anxious in the first place. So this time it could very well be something more serious! And back we are to square one. Keep these in mind and next time you catch yourself in these situations reset your focus on what you have learned. Recovery from anxiety is 100% possible! ————————————————————————————————————————————————— Interested to chat in a more private setting?

“Isms,” Microaggressions, Ethics & Boundaries – Lois Smith Owens (2014)

Originally presented on March 7, 2014 for the 2014 Ethics and Boundaries Workshop held by the Field Education Program at the UW-Madison School of Social Work. This interactive workshop explores how culture influences our assumptions about the “other” and how we communicate. Participants will examine their perceptions, values, ethics and cultural awareness in order to increase their capacity to communicate effectively with individuals from diverse cultures, backgrounds, and perspectives. Participants will also examine cross-cultural practices and values, with emphasis on the commonalities and differences among individuals in the workplace. This process is intended to assist participants in developing strategies for reducing workplace tensions through the combination of awareness and understanding that “others are not different from them” but that they are “different from others.” Presenter Lois Smith Owens is a co-author of “Think About Prisons and the Justice System” and contributing author of “Fundamentals of Substance Abuse Practice.” She is a diversity trainer and primary consultant for the National Black Police Association.

The PTSD Workbook

Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is an extremely debilitating anxiety condition that can occur after exposure to a terrifying event or ordeal. Although many know that this mental health issue affects veterans of war, many may not know that it also affects victims of domestic violence, sexual violence, natural disasters, crime, car accidents and accidents in the workplace. No matter the cause of their illness, people with PTSD will often relive their traumatic experience in the form of flashbacks, memories, nightmares, and frightening thoughts. This is especially true when they are exposed to events or objects that remind them of their trauma. Left untreated, PTSD can lead to emotional numbness, insomnia, addiction, anxiety, depression, and even suicide. In The PTSD Workbook, Second Edition, psychologists and trauma experts Mary Beth Williams and Soili Poijula outline techniques and interventions used by PTSD experts from around the world to offer trauma survivors the most effective tools available to conquer their most distressing trauma-related symptoms, whether they are a veteran, a rape survivor, or a crime victim. Based in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), the book is extremely accessible and easy-to-use, offering evidence-based therapy at a low cost. This new edition features chapters focusing on veterans with PTSD, the link between cortisol and adrenaline and its role in PTSD and overall mental health, and the mind-body component of PTSD. This book is designed to arm PTSD survivors with the emotional resilience they need to get their lives back together after a traumatic event.
