Living with the fear
Millions of people experience anxiety attacks annually. Quite a few suffer alone, trying hard to live and cope with this condition without seeking any help. Anxiety is a distinctive feature in all of us.
A normal amount of anxiousness can be helpful as it keeps us alert to the danger. It influences us physically and on an emotional level.
The fear and adrenaline that anxiety generates is what kept our forebears alert and alive and is referred to as the ‘fight or flight’ response. Though threats like that aren’t a problem now, this adrenaline still serves us well in specific situations. Nevertheless, if we have too much anxiety it can cause us to be afraid and worry even though there is actually little or nothing to be afraid of.
This sort of feeling can last a very long time and have a considerable impact on an individual’s life. This kind of anxiety is normally known as GAD (generalised anxiety disorder).
The signs of GAD may include feelings of panic, fear and dread, trouble sleeping, light-headedness, palpitations, trembling, irritability, nausea and anxiety attacks. A lot of sufferers find it difficult just to survive the day and find it hard to stop the feelings of panic and fear. This draining and overwhelming condition is most commonly appears between childhood and middle age but can affect a person at any age.
Victims commonly say they genuinely feel like they’re ‘going insane.’ They believe that no one could understand them and really feel embarrassed and ashamed. They suffer alone and conceal their problem from the people around them. They hide behind an emotional and behavioural mask having lost all faith in their mind and body
Hiding this problem and believing there is no such thing as hope is common practice for a lot of sufferers. Hiding this disorder and not dealing with the issues can actually aggravate and prolong the anxiousness.
The most worthwhile way to be rid of this condition is to uncover the root cause and address the problems. Removing the cause will probably ultimately diminish the issue.
Hypnotherapy is a very successful treatment in tackling anxiety and removing the underlying causes. Through hypnosis, a person can find different ways of thinking and feeling about their issues and achieve a much better understanding.
A hypnotherapist will by and large try to reduce a person’s unhealthy beliefs by suggesting favourable views to the sub-conscious. Our subconscious mind is a very powerful tool and hypnotherapy uses our minds resources to gain control over our thought processes and feelings.
