What helps with anxiety?
For me getting off caffeine, exercising and taking vitamin B6 and D helped me dramatically. I use to think I had a mental illness until I did that. I have never had one anxiety attack since then (20+ years) also Alcohol flushes vitamin B from your system, so alcohol is bad Exercising releases tension that creates anxiety. If there is no place for all your negative tension to go it will create anxiety. That's what anxiety is Negative energy that needs to be released Don't take the multi vitamins because some of the other vitamins can cause anxiety, like for me Niacin caused problems with me
Why do I have such bad anxiety?
I've had some problems in the past where I would get so anxious, jittery and nervous over the SMALLEST things. I would get anxious walking about my college campus going to work or classes or anything. Breathing would get heavy, and I would just have this nervous feeling. Maybe I thought I would be late (but I am always early)... That has kind of disappeared since I transferred schools, but I still get bad anxiety every once in a while. I notice that I get it when I am anticipating something, like waiting for someone to text me or arrive at my house. What is wrong with me? It isn't affecting my life very much, but I do wish it would go away!

Why do I have anxiety all day?
Typically nervousness and worry form a part of everyday small matters like work, finances, relationships, health and safety of loved ones; school or college assignments, job stresses, presentations and other routine tasks. The focus of worry usually keeps shifting from one task to another. Normally everyone is able to keep control over bothersome thoughts and impending trials; and life’s uncertainties ordinarily don’t seem to be getting out of hand. But sometimes, defenses don’t match up to the stressors; demand overruns the supply of personal energies, and troubles do get out of subjective individual control. That is when we feel overwhelmed, that we cannot manage this and it is experienced as anxiety.The anxiety response is accompanied by tremulousness, shakiness, with backache, headache, chest pain, irritability, insomnia, fatigue, dryness of mouth, sweating, nausea and at times even physical manifestations like stomach cramps and diarrhea. A simple classical example of this is the anxiety felt by the school going child just before the examination. These are physical expressions of turmoil in the mind. They don’t have a physical cause but are felt with the same intensity as if there was some problem in the body.Anxiety is long lasting and disabling. Medication can be used to reduce the physiological (bodily) symptoms, but dealing with the worrisome thoughts is the challenge. Cognitive therapy (CBT) helps correct faulty cognitions that direct you to undue worries. Behavior therapy reduces apprehensive performances. Emotive therapies (REBT) help to correct incorrect emotions. Speaking to a professional about your anxiety and what you can do about it, is highly recommended.
Why do people get anxiety?
Anxiety is basically hightened stress response. People who have anxiety react to triggers that most would not. It could be something as small as getting a call, going outside or getting ready for an event.Why do people get anxiety?The question that follows is why some people react so strongly to triggers that are not objectively stressful.This comes from a low self-esteem; people who are constantly doubtful of themselves, their choices and decisions. Such people are those who have become too identified with their thoughts - thoughts which are often self-loathing and reproachful. They have to deal with inner voices that often say things like, “you aren't enough”, “your future looks bleak”, “you are ugly”, “you should just give up”, “you cannot do this”.The problem is they do not realise that these self-loathing voices are not their own. They become too identified with these. Left untreated, these voices take over the subconscious as well in which case anxiety gets worse.Anxiety disorders run in families. So, it might be concurred that certain neurochemical pathways are wrongly fired in these people. I disagree. I think it comes from an atmosphere of invalidation. Children raised in families where their feelings, opinions and ideas were not invalidated and instead rebuked, are likely to suffer from low self-esteem even as adults and repeat the cycle with their children. If they are bullied and abused, the chances of growing up as nervous anxiety-prone adults are higher.One of the best ways to manage anxiety would be to love oneself unconditionally. Treat yourself as lovingly and unjudgingly as you would treat a child. Learn to observe all your thoughts (negative and positive) without getting identified with them. Learn to live in the moment because anxiety takes a person away from the present into fretting about the past or worrying about the future - both of which are out of one's control, thus alleivating anxiety further.An anxious person, therefore, desires control. They need to control everything about their lives. Because they never learned to live in the present. The constant worrying would do that to most people. Of course, since a person cannot control everything, they fall victim to their own need to control.Hope this helps.
Do I have the symptoms of anxiety?
I'm really worried about this. Ever since I was 11 I've been worrying about unnecessary things and getting worked up over them. I'm 14 now and I'm still the same. I'm really shy in class, do not volunteer AT ALL and whenever anyone asks me anything or talks to me I get really nervous and worried because I'm scared they will think I'm weird. I sometimes cannot sleep at all because whenever I go to sleep I wake up in the middle of the night and can't go back to sleep. I get really emotional at the thought of death and if I ever have a headache I get horrible ideas that it might be cancer or if I have a stomachache I'm scared its something like appendicitis, and I have headaches and stomachaches all the time. Basically, my worst fear is dying. I don't know if this is linked to anxiety, but I sometimes can't breathe and I start to feel dizzy, or my chest starts to feel like it's closing up. So far, I've had three panic attacks and my mums had to help me calm down. If my little brother who's five hides and I can't find him I think he's been kidnapped or something and before I go to bed I check all the doors are locked, and plug sockets or anything electrical is turned off because I'm scared something horrible will happen. I've talked about this to my mum, who thinks I've definitely got it. I'm going to see a physiatrist next week to see if I do have it. I know some of you might think this is a stupid question, but it's really bothering me because it's affecting most of my life. Even trying to talk to someone makes me all worked up, and I have no confidence AT ALL. If anyone has any tips on how I might be able to calm myself down and maybe get rid of horrible thoughts about death and thinking everything's going to end badly please put them because I can't stand it. Thank you and please answer x
