I have ANXIETY but I'm not Sick

When you say you have ANXIETY and ATTACKs it doesn’t mean you are crazy or mental it means

you just need back up

At work or at play it can come

Anxiety can occur for any reason and for no reason. Anxiety often comes without warning and may not be something you can expect or control. But there are also things that can make your anxiety worse - anxiety triggers that make it more likely that you'll experience anxiety, panic, and a host of other anxiety related conditions.

TRUE STATEMENT in our World

What Are Your Anxiety Triggers?• Different people have different symptoms and

triggers. Every type of anxiety is different. The triggers of obsessive compulsive disorder are unwanted thoughts. The triggers of panic disorder are often physical sensations (which we'll get to in a moment). Knowing your triggers is useful, but knowing more about your disorder is even better.

Trigger vs Cause

There is also a difference between a trigger of anxiety and a cause of anxiety. A cause of anxiety is something that caused your anxiety disorder to be a part of you. For example, your upbringing and genetics are causes of your anxiety. Triggers are issues that make your anxiety worse or more prevalent.Not everyone that deals with anxiety disorders experiences them every day. Some people get breaks, and others deal with more manageable anxiety that can occasionally get worse. This anxiety may have "triggers" which essentially pick the anxiety disorder back up again and cause it to have more impact in your life, often becoming harder to manage.

Natural

There are also several natural, understandable triggers of anxiety. A stressful job, for example, is a common natural anxiety trigger. Long term, persistent stress can make it very hard to cope with life, and that can create long term anxiety issues. Living with cancer or a disease can also create anxiety, as can trouble with your relationships or social life. These types of anxiety triggers are very common, and may create anxiety in the short or long term.

Invisible but present

The best place to start is with the invisible triggers of anxiety. Invisible triggers are possible triggers that you may not even know is happening. A great example is clutter. Some people (not all) start to experience much more anxiety when their homes have more clutter because they associated cleanliness with control. That's an invisible anxiety trigger, because the person may not even be aware that their home is affecting them until it's cleaned.

Panic can be present Panic attacks are so unusual that they can be caused by fear of panic attacks - or simply by thinking about your panic attacks. They can be caused by exercise, by dehydration, and by nothing at all. The first panic attack often comes at a time of considerable stress, but some people have been known to get their first panic attack for no apparent reason. Once that first panic attack occurs, common triggers include:• Chest pains.• Lightheadedness• Heart palpitations (rapid heartbeat that you can feel)• Trouble taking a deep breath• Oversensitivity to physical sensations• Health fears

Prevention start NOW

Anxiety triggers can be tough to control. Each trigger will have its own potential treatment, and the only way to prevent all anxiety triggers is to re-learn coping strategies and cure your anxiety. Some example treatments include:• Trigger Prevention One of the easiest ways is to simply

live a life that's focused on trigger prevention. Healthy living, with exercise, will reduce health fears. Avoiding media will reduce random life anxiety. There are countless examples of ways that you can address individual fears in order to reduce the likelihood of triggering anxiety.

Trigger Desensitization Another thing you can try is desensitization. It's a term used to describe purposely doing a trigger so often that it no longer causes anxiety. For example, if you get anxiety when you have a specific thought, then purposely have the thought so often that it no longer causes fear. The mind is very adaptive, and one of the reason thoughts and things cause distress is because the mind fights it away rather than gets used to them.

I know you are in there!

Trigger Acknowledgement When you do experience an anxiety trigger, try to learn to notice the fact that your anxiety increases. Explore whether or not it's rational and pay attention to your symptoms. You can often reduce anxiety by simply stopping the trigger from cascading into worse anxiety. This level of mindfulness can be difficult to practice but possibly very valuable.

Hello you mentioned meNo matter what type of anxiety problem you are struggling with, it is important that you understand certain facts about anxiety. FACT 1: Anxiety is a normal and adaptive system in the body that tells us when we are in danger. This means that dealing with your anxiety NEVER involves eliminating it, but rather managing it. FACT 2: Anxiety can become a problem when our body tells us that there is danger when there is no real danger. That is, when we think or perceive that we are in danger (even when we aren’t), our body reacts as if it really is in danger. As an important first step, you can start by understanding that all of these worries and uncomfortable physical feelings in your body have a name: ANXIETY. Once you can identify and name the problem, you can begin dealing with it.

Give a little whistle

How can you rethink your worries? Trying to change your beliefs about the usefulness of worry is not as simple as saying “worry is bad”. In order for you to change your beliefs, you need to look at your beliefs and think about whether your worries are doing what you think they are doing.
