When you are fighting anxious thoughts, there is a very valuable tool that you may have never even considered.  It’s not a social anxiety treatment that is exactly mainstream yet, but it is more effective than many other techniques out there.  It is gratitude.

Gratitude is one of the best natural cures for anxiety.  Many people report feeling cut off from the world around them when they are battling anxiety.  It can be frustrating and distressing when you feel detached from reality, because you begin to fear that you’ll never feel normal again.  While this is common and in most cases, caused from anxious thinking, to the person who is experiencing it, the feeling can be nearly debilitating.

If you suffer from panic attacks or anxiety disorders of any kind, you probably spend a lot of your day monitoring yourself.  You might think, do I feel okay?  Are my thoughts okay?  You may even ask yourself if you feel edgy or secure.  This is something I refer to as “Checking In”.

By checking in, you are always making sure that you are feeling okay.  The reason people with anxiety disorders constantly check in with themselves is because anxiety is powerful and can affect both the mind and body.  Many people say that they can handle the anxious body, but the anxious mind is much more difficult for them to deal with.

When you suffer from anxiety, you might feel like your mind is surrounded by a thick fog.  Life is hard to enjoy because you’re always seeing the world through the anxious thoughts and feelings that surround you.

Anxiety can steal all the fun from your life and make you feel like you aren’t connected to the world and your life.  Maybe you’ve tried different social anxiety treatments, but none of them have worked.  Maybe you’ve not tried any before now.

Anxious thoughts block you from having fun and getting to fully experience your life.  When a person who suffers from anxiety disorder feels this way, it can cause them to feel separate from the world.

By feeling separate, they begin to feel isolated and this can be very distressing.  It becomes a cycle when you start to be afraid that you’re losing touch with yourself.

How can you clear the fog and get back in touch with yourself?  What are your options when it comes to self help anxiety with social anxiety treatment?  We will get to the answers in my next post.  Until then take care.

When people who are anxious about having a panic attack have a hypnic jerk, it scares them into thinking that something bad is happening to them.  This causes a full blown panic attack because the jerking sensation is scary.  So if you suffer from anxiety and you have this sensation, you might wake up gasping for air, which can turn into a fear of not being able to breathe.  This can cause you to panic, or become anxious, and that could result in a panic attack.  By knowing and understanding what is happening to you when you experience a hypnic jerk, you can take some of the fear from the situation.

Keep telling yourself that you’re safe and that when you jerk, it’s nothing to worry about.  It is natural and it is your body’s natural reaction to falling asleep.  It will not hurt you and you aren’t in any danger.

So, let me leave you with a couple of thoughts.  So often, it seems like people who suffer from anxiety are pressured to find cures for their anxiety.  People will say things like, why can’t you just snap out of your anxiety? I People mean well, but these comments aren’t helpful at all.  You don’t just think something and all the sudden, you’ve found a cure for your anxiety.  The good news is thought, that there is a step-by-step program where you can strip away the illusion of not being in control that anxiety can crate and how long it takes depends on you.

I want you to know that there are cures for your anxiety.  You can never stop searching for which cure works for you.  I have worked on my own anxiety and I know now more than ever that every person who suffers from anxiety, no matter how severe it is, can end their problem with anxiety.  If you have thoughts to the contrary, then you need to get rid of them and never stop trying to find natural cures for anxiety.  When you give up, you lose.  By continuously looking for ways to cure your anxiety, you are doing the best you can do and eventually, you will find a technique that works for you.
