Anxiety Stress and Panic Attacks

Stop Anxious Scenarios

by Dan Regan | May 24, 2015 | Anxiety Stress and Panic Attacks

If you struggle with anxiety then will be all too familiar with all those ‘what-if’ scenarios you run through your mind. And the more you think about all those worst case scenarios, the more anxious you feel – leading to even more vivid scenarios flowing through your mind.

And whilst you may be able to sometimes distract yourself or stay busy to keep the anxiety at bay, sooner or later, maybe in a quiet moment or whilst you are trying to sleep, these anxious scenarios keep coming back.

You may feel like all you want to do is stop your mind thinking for a while to give you some peace. Using the technique below will give you that peace by ending all those worries about the future and bringing you back to right now.

Stop Others Controlling How You Feel

by Dan Regan | May 24, 2015 | Anxiety Stress and Panic Attacks

Do you find that some people seem to be able to make you feel anxious or nervous?

The more you have that anxiety, the more it seems to fire off even when you logically know there is no need.

Recently a client told me about someone at his work who drove him up the wall – just the sound of his colleague’s voice would automatically make him tense up and feel anxious and on edge. And any interactions with that person would bug him for hours after and often long into the night.

When he came to see me he was sick of feeling out of control of his own thoughts and feelings.

Here’s what he did and you can too if you want to successfully break that cycle.

Jean ends her anxiety and panic attacks

by Dan Regan | May 22, 2015 | Anxiety Stress and Panic Attacks

In this video, Jean describes how I helped her overcome anxiety and panic attacks, over two years ago.

As is often the case, once someone has had a panic attack, because they are so overwhelming, the fear of having another one starts to create even more anxiety. This often includes the worry about having a panic attack, as well as the worry about having a panic attack in front of others.

Anxiety tends to feed off itself, generating more stress and worry and creating a vicious cycle of worrying about worrying. Yet as Jean demonstrates, it is possible to break free of that cycle and to start feeling calm, confident and in control.

Change The Anxiety Channel

by Dan Regan | Apr 5, 2015 | Anxiety Stress and Panic Attacks

Anxiety is an unhelpful use of your imagination – you imagine vivid scenarios of things going badly or going wrong and, in doing so, you create all those anxious feelings inside.

The more you run those worst case scenarios, the more anxious you feel. And the more anxious you feel the more you run those scenarios. It becomes a self-perpetuating cycle of anxiety.

Yet if you were watching a rubbish programme on TV you’d probably grab the remote and turn over wouldn’t you? You’d find something you’d rather watch.

End Your Anxiety & Take Control

by Dan Regan | Mar 19, 2015 | Anxiety Stress and Panic Attacks

To overcome your anxiety you need to learn to calm all the worry and anxiety and direct your mind in a more positive way. Anxiety thrives when you use your imagination in an unhelpful way by creating worst case scenarios and then feeling worried, uneasy and full of dread.

It may take some time and sometimes it will be easier than other times but you need to persevere and give your brain a break from all those worrying thoughts. To take control over anxiety you need to give your stressed, over working brain, more and more time off and rest so that the perspective of calm can gain a foot hold.

Blot Out Anxiety

by Dan Regan | Mar 11, 2015 | Anxiety Stress and Panic Attacks

Recently I was working with a client who was totally fed up of all those anxious and worrying scenarios going around her head, particularly when she was at work and needed to concentrate on what she was doing. They would keep coming back into her head time after time through the day and even stronger in the evening and when she was trying to get to sleep.

And all that worrying left her feeling anxious, tired and frustrated. The more she tried not to think about the anxiety, the harder it seemed to be for her to forget about it.

So here is a quick, simple and effective way to start taking back control over the scenarios running wild through your mind.

Ending The Worry of Panic Attacks

by Dan Regan | Feb 5, 2015 | Anxiety Stress and Panic Attacks

If you struggle with panic attacks then chances are, because they are so overwhelming, you worry about having another one. The last thing you want to experience is that feeling inside, your heart racing, the panic, the feeling of being out of control and all the other symptoms of your panic attack.

And so to avoid having another panic attack, you may start avoiding going certain places or doing certain things. In some cases, you may even avoid going out altogether because of your worry and anxiety.

Recently I was working with a guy who had barely left his house for 6 months because of his anxiety and worry about having a panic attack away from home. Just the thought of going out made him feel anxious and when he did step outside, that feeling of panic would rapidly escalate. It was so severe that he just decided he was better off staying at home.

Yet a few sessions later and he is out and about every day and doing more and more things.

Ending Exam Anxiety in Ely

by Dan Regan | Jan 31, 2015 | Anxiety Stress and Panic Attacks

Do you struggle wih exam anxiety and exam nerves?

It may be that exams have become an ordeal for you because of your panic and nerves. Whilst most people get some nerves before exams, if those feelings of anxiety and panic get too overwhelming they can stop you performing to the best of your ability (or sometimes you can’t even do the exam at all).

And the added pressure of knowing that, if you perform badly, you will disappoint family, teachers and yourself can intensify the anxiety.

Recently I was working with a student who was overwhlmed with exam anxiety and panic. The nearer the exams got, the worse the anxiety and, based on previous experiences, the worse he performed in the exam room.

Do you struggle with anxiety around appointments, particularly medical appointments?

Many people with anxiety find that as meetings and commitments approach, their anxiety levels rise. Some won’t sleep the night before an appointment and many others start worrying days before, the volume of their thoughts and intensity of their anxious feelings increasing the closer it gets.

Recently, I helped Danni to end her anxiety around appintments for the detnist, doctor and optician. Here’s what she had to say:
