Self Help Anxiety - 7 Essential Tips For Self Help in Coping With Anxiety Attacks

There are many types of Panic Anxiety Disorder and everyone affected can experience a wide range of anxiety disorders symptoms.
Coping with Anxiety Attacks can best be done by using Self Help Anxiety strategies.
Here are my 7 Essential Tips for Self Help in Coping with Anxiety Attacks:- 1.
Take control of your physical health
Your physical health plays a major part in the way you feel inside.
  • Get some exercise every day even if it is just walking for 20 to 30 minutes
  • Make sure that your diet includes a good range of fresh fruit and vegetables and plenty of whole grain cereals.
  • Reduce your caffeine from tea, coffee and colas e.
    t.
    c.
  • Alcohol and smoking - reduce or give up altogether - you may find this hard at this time in your life, I know that I did! but it will get easier...
2.
Learn relaxation techniques
Relaxing your whole body, relax your muscles, slow down your heart rate and reduce your blood pressure
  • Breathing deeply and slowly will help you to calm yourself
  • Muscle relaxation techniques like clenching your fist and then opening to stretch out your fingers can help
  • Meditation techniques will have a calming influence on you - and combine with Yoga for physical health
3.
Learn that change is Good
You may often feel frightened of change, that fear of the unknown if you do something different which takes you out of your comfort zone
  • Self Help Anxiety teaches you to split big tasks into many very small steps
  • Make one small change in your life every day - and they will create big improvements for you over time.
  • These small changes repeated every day will be set as a habit within 30 days
4.
Create your own Anxiety Zone for coping with anxiety attacks
Yes - everyone worries about something!
  • Make a list of the things you are anxious or worried about today
  • Nominate a place in your house and set a time period of 20 minutes in which you allow yourself to have a little worry about anything that is troubling you in that day
  • Emerge knowing that you have now separated your day into worry and non-worry periods
5.
Turn negatives into positives
It's all too easy to just look at the bad side of every situation
  • List 100 bad things in your life
  • List 100 things that will happen to you if things stay the same or get worse
  • List 100 GOOD things that you will achieve when you make your positive changes in your life
6.
Bounce-back-ability!
I know it's not a proper word but you get my drift!
  • Learn to take a deep breath
  • Stand back from a situation and make a positive analysis
  • Realise that everything will not always go your way and that is just Normal
7.
Self Help Anxiety Support Groups
  • I had Social Anxiety Phobia as well so going to any 'meeting' was a definite NO!
  • There are support groups and forums on-line for panic anxiety disorder where you will find that you are not alone with your anxiety disorder symptoms
