When you suffer from a setback, it can feel like you’ve just taken a major step backward.  This can feel so daunting and make you want to give up, but you should know that usually when you have a setback, you generally will experience rapid progress on all different levels if you completely engage yourself with your protective side.

Your setback can prove to be an opportunity if you are willing and able to create a new relationship with your protective self, which will help to cement your recovery.

By teaching your protective self that you really are safe and encouraging it to take all of the healing steps with you, you are fully empowering yourself to end your anxiety problems.  This is the only true form of natural remedy for anxiety that you will find and it does take work.  All of your energies will be headed in the same direction, so you won’t have the conflict of another side of your personality.

When you find you’re having a setback, you need to persevere though it and work to ensure that you are successful in ending your anxiety problem.  Stay confident and keep it strong by building it stronger and stronger by reflecting on every time you have succeeded.  Keep playing your successes in your mind each night when you start to go to sleep.  Remind yourself of all the panic attacks you’ve endured and anxious times you’ve had, but you still kept on with it.

One of the most frightening things a person can go though is a panic attack and when you have an anxiety disorder you are no stranger to feeling like you’re dying.  Coping with panic attacks is huge to deal with and it takes nearly super-human strength to continuously deal with an anxiety disorder.  You should be proud of your panic attacks and that you’ve gotten though them, you found a cure for panic attacks.  You’re not a coward; you are a survivor of terrifying experiences.

To top it off, it’s likely that you kept going on with your life.  You kept going to work, picking the kids up from school and continued living, all while you felt like you were dying.  You should build on the fact that you are here now and you wake up every day to a new day.

By having all these memories of panic attacks and incidences of anxiety, you will have an endless resource for strength.  Write them all down in and effort to make them more real to you.  Read them over every day and keep a diary of your progress.  Did you make a trip across town and not panic?  Put it in your progress diary.  Did you have a day where you totally forgot that you even had an anxiety issue?  Put that in your progress diary.  Keep looking these over whenever you feel like your protective side is going to try to take over again.
