I had problems with anxiety a few years back that seemed to come out from nowhere, although rarely have any issues now. Anxiety will never be completely 'cured' and thats what people need to realise.
Main things that helped me were simple breathing techniques, and trying to stay 'in the moment' (mindfulness is the buzzword now) it takes some getting used to but youve got to get outside of your head when you are interacting with people and just concentrate on them, rather than the inner monologue going on in your head. the less thinking you do the better lol.
I think CBT is a load of **** for many people to be honest and it doesnt shock me that these health issues persist when thats the first line treatment, cause people know there thoughts are bad, you are never going to rewire thoughts in my opinion. Are instinctive.
The best way is just to shut the negative thoughts out rather than reshaping them, when that negative inner monologue in your head starts up, youve just got to focus your attention on something else. And i think the less you think about things, the more fluid and instinctive you come across- thats why many people are very eloquent when talking to their friends but freeze up when they do presentations, cause they are stuck in their own head and overthinking things.
hope that helps a bit.

Originally posted by bigdramashow View Postfair enough, im just saying thats what helped me when i was struggling with it, think if your prone to anxiety you will always have negative thoughts you just got to be able to deal with them. i do agree there does have to be a case of just grabbing your balls and getting on with it though lol

To get rid of anxiety, avoid eye contact with people because it will only make you more anxious. Just stare at their crotch and imagine them naked.
