Support for Anxiety & Panic
Understanding Anxiety
Anxiety is a common experience, but it can get out of hand and feel overwhelming.
Whilst a little anxiety can help us to get the job done, to try hard, finish a task, pass an exam, when anxiety increases it can be hard to function, take a decision, revise for the exam and so on.
Anxiety can accompany depression. As your mood goes down, your anxiety can get worse.
Strategies to help manage anxiety can help you regain emotional control and will provide ongoing support. Identifying the causes of the anxiety, and treating those can be life-changing.
Understanding Panic
Sometimes anxiety can be so intense that it leads to feelings of panic, and utimately, panic attacks, which are very frightening and destabilising.
Fear of having another panic attack can take over your life and actually make another attack more likely.
Again, there are strategies that can support you and can help you manage, whilst at the same time, finding and treating the cause can help you regain control of your life.
