Hi lovelies,

It is a bold statement to say that anxiety can be completely eliminated but the truth is that factually, it can be. With the help of your doctor or therapist, you can handle anxiety in a number of ways that don’t involve self-medicating. You may have already heard of cbd oil. This is a natural supplement that can be great for anxiety. In fact, cbd can help anxiety attacks also; but first you must identify what type of anxiety you actually have. 

What is an anxiety attack?
An anxiety attack is a very unpleasant experience: a feeling of lack of control and helplessness along with various physical symptoms. The feeling of this fear is threatening and is accompanied by palpitations, sweating, and sometimes confusion. It is not easy to deal with an anxiety attack alone, so it is strongly recommended that you reach out and seek the help of a professional who knows the subject in depth and knows how to give a good mental response, if you haven’t already. It is important to enlist the help of family and friends as part of the support circle, but when anxiety attacks and impairs function and quality of life, professional psychotherapy must be enlisted in order to get life back on track.

Dealing with frequent attacks.
We have already spoken about cbd oil and supplements to assist but there are other ways to incorporate into your life also. Anxiety attacks are known to be a factor that negatively affects the emotional quality of life. It is more difficult to function in daily tasks in a normal and regular manner. There is a fear of doing things, such as living normally, having fun, properly experiencing humor and positive experiences are inhibited. If this condition lasts for a long time it can lead to a decrease in mood and negative thoughts and even depression. Coping sometimes leads to avoiding various situations that are unpleasant or that create stress and pressure.  During a severe anxiety attack the physical sensation is completely uncontrollable. It may manifest in a feeling of a heart attack that is about to occur, tremors in the body, a sense of loss of vitality and an understanding of the environment. Deep breathing, meditation and journaling are all considered important factors to healing.

How to deal with an anxiety attack at night?
Some people also suffer from an anxiety attack at night, and this type of occurance isn’t spoken about as widely. It isn’t really known what triggers it but experts say the sense of calmness and inactivity, triggers the brain into “overthinking”.

They may suffer this before they go to sleep, or wake up sweating, with palpitations, confused and feeling a huge fear that something bad is about to happen to them. An anxiety attack during sleep can greatly frighten and reinforce the feeling of lack of control, and the stress of a sudden threat. Not every person who suffers from recurrent anxiety attacks will suffer from an anxiety attack at night but the possibility exists. Its results are impaired sleep quality, and sleep routine all of which must be reaffirmed to get back onto the path of health once again.
