Blaming
Panic Disorder sufferers are often under the impression that there is some influence behind their disorder and this leads them to believe that it is out of their control.
They start feeling hopeless and then start blaming this condition on others. They start blaming their marriage, their job, and sometimes even their kids. The act of blaming is futile and only leads to weakening the confidence and focus, both of which are imperative to completely cure their condition. .
So, if you really want to cure your Panic Attacks, the first step to recovery is to stop blaming and realize that blaming is not going to stop this. Instead of focusing on the cause, concentrate on the cure. There is no external influence and there is no one to blame. The only way to stop it is to take control of your life and become the master of your own destiny.
Negative Words
Negative words are sometimes used by people to convince themselves that they are incapable of taking control of their mind and body. Words like “I tried but…” or “I can’t do this” or “It’s too hard”.
When you use words like these, you are stopping the possibilities that are open to you to completely cure panic attacks.
Words like “can’t” and “try” are derogative because they are preparing your brain for failure. They make you start thinking about failure before you even attempt to succeed.
To cure your anxiety disorder, you will need focus and determination that no amount of negative thought can harm. You need to focus on the final outcome of your journey to recovery. And when you do so, then you will start using words like “When I have….” and “Once I reach there….”
Your Protective Side
There will always be a protective side of your own self that will try to stop you from taking action. The protective side of you will want you to stay in your comfort zone. This protective side of you will always say “what if you fail”.
But, you need to understand that this protective side is just a part of you, and is trying to help you. And the only way to really stop this protective side from discouraging you is t help this protective side understand that you are doing this for your own good.
Explain yourself about the life that you can live once you are free of Panic Attacks. Explain this protective side that the life you are living right now, in the dark caves of fear and intimidation, is not what you want in life. Explain yourself that this comfort zone is like a cage that is holding you back, and to be free you need to pry open the lock of protectiveness.
These three small but deadly threats can ruin all your efforts in a matter of seconds. The best way to deal with them is to recognize them as soon as possible and remind yourself that this is a threat to your recovery and might ruin everything you’ve achieved. Once you recognize the threat, you will automatically take action to stop it.
