Coping with anxiety
Hi 7 cups readers! If you are reading this right now for sure you have or you've been experiencing anxiety at some sort of your life. I just want to share my anxiety experiences and how I was able to handle it. I know the feeling, the jumping thoughts, the tremors, the fear of the unknown. Until to this day I do not know the cause of my anxious thoughts nor the triggers. There are so many triggers that I really can't classify it anymore. The first thing that I do if it happens, I stay still and process that "okay, I am having another anxiety attack or panic attack" then I treat it like pins and needles and keep telling myself that this is just another attack. I do not need to know what caused it nor the roots of it anymore I just need to accept that I am anxious at the moment. Then I pray, I tell the Lord how I am feeling. My heart is raising fast, my muscles are experiencing tremors, I am experiencing shallow breathing.. Then I close my eyes and feel it, then imagine myself in my safe space, for me it is in a small shack by the beach. There I am safe, there is nothing for me to worry. With this consistent exercise I examined myself to be able to breath better and then little did I know the anxious thoughts are gone. Thank you Lord!
