Help With Anxiety


Help with anxiety starts when the anxiety sufferer learns he/she is far from alone.  An old adage tells us “misery loves company.”  Though this may sound trite, as a former sufferer of anxiety panic disorder I would have to say this saying is very meaningful.

In my darkest days of  dealing with panic attacks, the thing that made me most bewildered was my belief I was the Pyramid stageonly person on the face of the earth who was experiencing these strange sensation brought on by anxiety.  I felt a sense of relief the first day I learned there were 100’s of thousands of people going through the very same thing I was.

I don’t wish any ill on any one and wish no one would ever have a panic attack.  Still, the point is, as terrible as panic may be, realizing you are not alone will be of some help in overcoming your anxious condition.  It is startling, yet somewhat comforting to know that in every large gathering of people, many of them often encounter the same types of bouts of panic you do.
