“I just want to feel calm!”

 

We all want a life filled with calm, safety, and peace. But worry, stress, and fear get the best of us. We try to calm down, breathe deeply, avoid things that make us feel bad. But, sometimes nothing seems to help. 

Over time, anxiety can take a big toll on our lives:

 
  • Health Issues
  • Reduced Pleasure
  • Isolation
  • Addiction

What causes anxiety?

 

Many things can cause anxiety including medical issues, certain drugs, and even caffeine. Usually, it’s a result of your nervous system doing what it’s designed to do, alert you to the presence of danger. Think of anxiety as this powerful, yet primitive part of you running on overdrive!

The middle of your brain is very powerful, fast-acting, and adaptable. When a scary, overwhelming, or negative experience happens, your brain records it. It captures everything associated with that moment. Later, when something similar happens, your mid-brain responds by sending signals to your body to prepare to run or fight. Your mid-brain can respond without you even being aware of it. As a result, your heart and breathing rate increase, senses become focused, and that panicky feeling in your chest returns.
 
Unfortunately, this part of the brain doesn’t use logic. It doesn’t understand you don’t need to look out for elevators or frogs. It sees a frog, and wham, you’re feeling anxious.

What are panic attacks/panic disorder?

 

Panic Disorder causes episodes of Panic Attacks, or severe anxiety and terror. Within seconds, the survival-based systems in the brain and body react to real or perceived triggers. Then, these systems work fast to put you into a state of readiness. This readiness feels horrible. It’s like extreme terror, and sufferers often report they feel like they are about to die.

What are symptoms of a panic attack?

 
  • An extreme quickening of breath and heart rate
  • Tightness and pain in the chest
  • Tunnel vision
  • Feelings of extreme danger or dread

What is anxiety treatment?

 
The good news is that we know a great deal about what can ease anxiety these days. Powerful new interventions are available to us via neuro-imagery, mindfulness, and somatic psychology. By learning and practicing these tools, you can decrease and even end anxiety and panic.
 
You do not need to live another day hijacked by fear and dread. Anxiety treatment in Sacramento, CA and Pasadena, CA can help. You only need to get started!
