Facing triggers can be hard and scary but one of the key things I remember is that anxiety and panic can't hurt me. Yes it feels awful, makes you feel really ill, can effect your daily life, but no matter what panic attacks always pass. Panic reaches a peak then begins to ease. One of the key stages of beating anxiety is to lose the fear so facing triggers or triggering situations can be helpful in helping you realise that panic won't harm you and always passes.through all my research about anxiety and panic disorders one phrase has stuck with me "feel the fear and do it anyway" to me this means that we can't let anxiety or panic stop us doing anything, we face the fear, feel the fear and do it anyway! Show anxiety we are in charge IT isn't. I like to think of anxiety as a handbag or coat, it's there so whatever I want to do I pick it up and take it with me, it won't stop me. So when facing your trigger, yes you may panic and yes you may feel ill BUT those feeling will pass and when you have faced it you will be able to look back and say YES! I did it!

Remember how you handled this trigger before. You got calm somehow! Remember that you can calm down again, take deep breaths, and know it will be okay. :)

Well simply by taking time. Imagine what if someone with us sense the Danger and says do not move!! What will we do?? Simply waiting.. That's it. Focusing on what is going on. Trying to sense the Events happening around like any music that is being played, any sound or noise and focus on that . And simply then we might feel hey am OUT OF IT!!!

When you are panicking you might feel lots and lots of problems are creeping up on you. Think about individual problems you're panicking about and work through them, make a list of which ones need to be done first, focus on them one by one!

When you know what you're triggers are you can overcome them by using coping methods. Take a look at this page. It may help you how to cope better. I'd also advice you to go see you're local doctor to help you more as they're more able to do so medically. http://www.mind.org.uk/information-support/types-of-mental-health-problems/anxiety-and-panic-attacks/self-care-for-anxiety/#.VWTwYc9Viko

Deep breaths, and try to find other ways for you personally to cope. I think that each person has their own coping ways individually.

The Facebook "Seen" message gives me a lot of anxiety! When I see that the person has "seen" the message, but does not reply, I start thinking about all the possible reasons why they would 'ignore' me... Does anyone else feel this? If so, how do you cope?
