How the Cycle of Anxiety Works

Avoiding things because of anxiety

I can’t avoid situations that make me anxious because that will cause even more anxiety the next time that situation comes about because I will feel less able to cope.

I learned a lot

I found this informative and helpful. I thought I was managing my anxiety but I am just building it. The logic makes sense, now I need to be more forward with my choices.

Anxiety

Learning how to hope and quiet our Minds will help with my day to day fears and challenges.

Informativt

Er så mye som i grunn er opplagt når man hører det, selv om en ikke klarer å se det selv.. men det er så sant.

Controlling anxiety

There are ways I can interrupt the circle of anxiety and just knowing this makes me feel less anxious. I think. Anxiety has a lot to do with control and if you are able to learn a wide range of coping skills, like a survival kit,you are back in control.

Reflection on anxiety monologue

I was surprised to realize that I may not understand what anxiety is. I guess I had not thought of myself as anxious, until I listened to the piece about anxiety. I can see it now more. The stuff about the cycle of anxiety makes a lot of sense.

Cycle of anxiety

I learned that anxiety is just a cycle the body goes through in response to a perceived threat or worry about future events. These “threats” aren’t what they seem to be and that the worst case scenario almost never happens. I have control over the cycle and I’m gonna break it.

The more I avoid situations that causes anxiety, the worse it’ll become in the future.
