The world around us is full of shocking situations and frightening events that negatively affect the mental state of a person, and cause a traumatic reaction in many. Psychologists advise learning how to get rid of anxiety in time. But how do you deal with the anxiety caused by really real problems and situations?
Often faced with different situations throughout the day, our anxiety is based on a fictional exaggeration of a real problem. For example, someone is worried that he will be fired, although there is no visible threat and reasons that contribute to this, and someone is afraid that the husband is cheating, but in fact there was not even a hint of such actions.
Unfortunately, paying attention to the world that surrounds us, when our fears and anxieties really have an objective foundation, succumbing to our emotions, we harm ourselves by doing stupid and rash acts. It is worth carefully monitoring your condition and taking timely measures.
Recognizing the signs is easy. These include:
- sudden mood swings, joy sharply develops into sadness, tears into laughter;
- weakness of the body, tense muscles of the neck back, headache, nausea;
- absent-mindedness, inability to concentrate even on the most important matters;
- a heightened sense of guilt, although you realize that the absolute could not do anything, anxiety and sadness.
It is difficult for you to realize the reality of what is happening. Often trying to get rid of this with loud parties, noisy companies, although this does not please you. These reactions of our consciousness are normal and quite healthy, as our psyche perceives and reacts to the world in which we live.
It's hard to step over yourself. But get rid of the feeling of guilt, for mood swings, for inconsistency, do not take too close to your heart the words of others who reproach or accuse you of this. Physical contact with people, hugs, kisses, marital sex play a very important role. Do not deny yourself this.
Don't forget to speak. You need to speak out, talk about your experiences, about the fear that overwhelms you. The help and participation of loved ones and relatives will help you with this. Lead an active lifestyle. Playing sports, walking, even cleaning the apartment, any physical activity will distract and help to overcome the feeling of anxiety.
Even just plan. Sit down and write down your long-term plans, both personal and professional. Plan your actions that will help you achieve your plans.
