Anxiety Disorders
Do you suffer from anxiety and panic attacks.
You are not alone.
It is thought that around ten percent of people will suffer from some form of anxiety disorder at some point in their lives and that number is on the increase.
I suffered from anxiety myself, for over fifteen years, trying a number of different solutions until I was successful in overcoming anxiety and panic attacks and got my life back on track. I have been anxiety free for around three years now and decided to put this site together to help others to overcome their own anxiety and master panic attacks.
The site is free to use. I don’t want to preach to anyone about the right or wrong way to overcome anxiety. Each of us developed anxiety because of our own experiences, upbringing and the variety of problems and stressful situations that we encounter as we go through life.
You can talk to a thousand anxiety sufferers and no two stories will be the same. Each of us develops anxiety in our own way and so it would be foolish to think that each of us will conquer our anxiety in exactly the same way. We are individuals and our journey back from anxiety will be individual to us.
The one common denominator is that information and understanding gives you power over anxiety. The more you learn and understand about anxiety and panic attacks the more likely you are to overcome them.
Anxiety has a huge range of symptoms and each person may well experience slightly different symptoms.
The Symptoms of Panic and Anxiety Disorders
- Racing or fluttering heart
- Difficulty getting your breath and trouble swallowing
- Feelings of panic
- Depression and feelings of hopelessness
- Anxious thoughts, constant worrying and disturbing irrational thoughts
- Irritability and a sense of paranoia
- Lack of emotion and a loss of interest in life
- Headaches, blurred vision
- Insomnia and fatigue
- A general feeling that you are going mad, not thinking like you normally do.
These are just the main symptoms of anxiety and panic. It is surprising just how much of a physical effect anxiety can have on us. Aches and pains, upset stomachs all disappear when you overcome anxiety.
