Beware of Anguish

The anxiety we experience is not always the product of self-deprecating thoughts about the possibility of any failure or personal weakness that could be made public. In fact, a second form of anxiety comes from a mindset common to many people called "low frustration tolerance" or BTF.

The basic idea underlying this BTF is that life should be easy and should be spent without experiencing too much trouble along the way. Now if you accept this idea, then chances are that you will end up in anguish in the end the fact that you won’t be able to adjust readily especially if you experience bad things in your life.

Now what causes anxiety? Anxiety can vary from one person to the other but it is linked on the following:

- The development of a person’s mindset during his or her formative years

- Depressing situations from a person’s life

- Traumatic experiences that happened in the past.

Anxiety is characterized by feelings of uncertainty and instability in different areas of daily life. Most people feel anxiety attacks at some point in their lives for a certain reason. Anxiety is characterized by the following symptoms:

- Feelings of fear and sadness

- Insomnia and nightmares

- Difficulty breathing, palpitations, heavy sweating, feeling faint

- Irritability, nervousness, inability to face difficulties

- Headaches, diarrhea, nausea, decreased sexual desire

Ultimately is important that people who suffer from these attacks can identify their situation so that they will be able to alleviate their situation. To control anxiety, here are some of the things that you can do:

- Sit somewhere comfortable, breathe slowly and concentrate on your breathing.

- Eat something that reminds you of a happy moment.

- Make a craft. You can do painting, knitting or gardening to help you relax.

- Practice physical activity at least once a week like walking or going to a gym.

- Travel mentally. Imagine a dream beach in the middle of the Pacific or by the iron in a pool.

- Lying in bed and try to relax every muscle in your body.

- Prioritize your tasks.

- Standing before the mirror and think about all the nice things you have.

- Trying to disconnect several times a day. Taking a walk, sitting in a seat, hugging someone you love so much can help you disconnect from your fears.

- Be positive. It helps address the difficulties and do not fall back in anguish.

- Psychotherapy can also be helpful in the treatment of this disorder especially if you have full support from your family and peers.
