Does your anxiety make you fear you may lose control ?--Anxiety and Panic Attacks

People who have anxiety and panic attacks often fear doing something out of character or fear they might lose control in front of other people.



If you are such a person I hope to put your mind at rest. Firstly, it is important to rememb er you are feeling this way because of the heightened state of stress your body is under. You feel out of touch because of the tension in your body which is mental, physical and emotional. This tension creates inner pressure that makes you feel you have the potential to lose control. I guarantee this will pass as soon as your body returns to a more balanced state.


Once the anxiety dwindles you will stop having that specific fear. You will have to trust me on that as it is difficult to imagine being free in the midst of the constant anxiousness. Remember this- In almost all cases those that fear they might do something out of control never do lose control.

Did you know:


The key difference between someone who is cured of panic attacks and those who are not is really very simple. The one who is cured is not afraid o f panic attacks. I'll try to show you how to one of these people as well.


What if I told you the trick to ending panic and anxiety attacks is to want to have one. That sounds strange but let me explain.
The trick to panic attacks is wanting to have one- the wanting pushes it away. Can you have a panic attack in this very second? No !


You know the saying "What you resist persists." Well that saying applies perfectly to fear. If you resist a situation out of fear, the fear around that issue will persist. How do you stop resisting? You move directly into the path of the anxiety; by doing so it cannot persist.


In essence what that means is that if you daily voluntarily seek out a panic attack you cannot have one. Try in this very moment to have a panic attack and I will guarantee you cannot. You may not realize it but you have always decided to panic. You make the choice by thinking "This is beyond my control."


It may help if you imagine that having a panic attack is like standing on a cliff edge. The anxiety, it seems, is pushing you closer to falling over the edge.


To be rid of the fear you must metaphorically jump. You must jump off the cliff edge and into the anxiety and fear and all the things that you fear most.


How do you jump –You jump by wanting to have a panic attack.
You go about your day asking for anxiety and panic attacks to appear.


Your real safety is the fact that a panic attack will never harm you. That is medical fact. You are safe, or the sensations are wild but no harm will come to you. Your heart is racing but no harm will come to you. The jump becomes nothing more than a two inch drop! Perfectly safe.


Trust that medical knowledge. Be assured by it -Think of all the attacks you have had to date and come out the other end. Was there any lasting physical damage to you, other than the mounting feeling of panic?


Now you are going to do it differently – You actively seek out the attack like an adventure seeker. Begin right now and for the rest of the day go out and actua lly hoping you will have a panic attack.



Some of this information forms a small part of the Panic Away course I teach which eliminates panic attacks for people immediately. My course Panic Away has proved highly successful with both long and short term sufferers of panic attacks.
