Anxiety can be very unpleasant, as it is accompanied by various vegetative manifestations in the form of dizziness, diarrhea, palpitations, sweating and others. But you can also do something about this, independently reducing the level of anxiety.
You can't get rid of anxiety forever if you just lie down and die. Any living person periodically experiences a similar state, since this mechanism is laid down in us by nature. But if the anxiety "bothers" and causes mental and physical discomfort, then the best solution would, of course, be an appointment with a specialist. In the absence of such an opportunity for various reasons, you can independently work on the existing problem. The following tips can help you reduce your anxiety levels:
- Regime and orderliness in everything are the main enemies of anxiety. Go to bed and wake up always at the same time, plan your affairs a couple of days in advance. This arrangement gives a person a sense of complete control over his life, which in turn creates an inner sense of security.
- High anxiety creates muscle tension. Body and mind are connected: restless thoughts create bodily discomfort, which in turn promotes negative thinking. Physical activity allows you to relieve stress, playing sports ensures the production of the hormone of joy. Therefore, sports and good mood are closely related.
- Alcohol taboo. The fact is that alcoholic beverages are a powerful depressant: even a non-anxious person feels a little anxiety from a hangover. Therefore, alcohol is strictly contraindicated for those suffering from it.
- Less TV and the Internet: a large flow of information leads to an overload of the psyche and nervous system, and if the news is also negative, then an increase in anxiety simply cannot be avoided.
- Zootherapy - communication with animals is very relaxing and uplifting, visit the contact zoo at least occasionally.
- And the last - more walks, interesting hobbies, visits, movies, etc. Positive emotions are a prevention against negative thoughts and, as a result, anxiety.
