Simple Way To Help End The Fear of a PANIC ATTACK

Friends

Why everywhere you look are top psychologists
and doctors still teaching outdated methods for
treating general anxiety and panic attacks?

It seems every time I do a search online
there is yet another anxiety "expert" rehashing
the same old ideas. Brown Paper bags, think happy
thoughts, do your breathing etc. I am sure you have
come across them a million times before already.

How are people supposed to solve their anxiety issue
if they are continuously exposed to these techniques
and methods that only teach people to cope with anxiety.
Just coping is not good enough. Real solutions are needed.



I want to share with you something that does work.
It is a very simple way to help end the fear of a PANIC ATTACK.


This is a very good exercise for people who want something
practical to focus their attention on when they feel the
pressure of a panic attack building.

Its very simple and easy to remember. Here goes...


The 20 Second Countdown

When you feel the sensations of a panic attack building
do the following.

Tell the panic that it has 20 seconds to initiate the
full panic attack. 20 seconds and no more. After the
20 seconds are complete it must stop making empty threats.

You are allowing 20 seconds for it to fully manifest
but not a second more.

Whatever the bodily sensation is that you fear, it must
happen within that 20 second time frame.

-If you heart is going to explode then
it has 20 seconds to do so.

-If you are going to lose control, then your mind
has 20 seconds to do so.

-If you are going to faint - 20 seconds!
But absolutely no more time than that.

You get the picture.

By setting a specific time frame you establish
boundaries of control. You turn it into a game where
you call fear's bluff. If it were a poker game,
you are asking anxiety to show its hand.

This works because it establishes a sense of
control within your mind and body.

You think to yourself "I am not prepared to spend
my time worrying about this. I've had enough. I am
going to be generous and give it 20 seconds but
after 20 seconds and nothing has happened then
the opportunity has officially passed and I am going
to go back to what I was doing."

Then start counting -but nice and slowly, don't rattle
it off as fast as you can. Really tease it out like you
did when you were a child and you never wanted to
reach zero. Teasing it out is the key because it allows
you to feel generous and that you are giving anxiety
every chance possible.

Deep down you know there is really nothing to fear.

To really help tease it out, break the last few
numbers into fractions.

5................................
4................................
3.................................
2...and three quarters...
2...and half..................
2................................
1...and three quarters... (last chance anxiety)
1...and half.................. (I really cant wait any longer)
1................................
0.
Sorry too late we've reached the end.


By not rushing through the countdown you will feel
your confidence soar because you are demonstrating
real control and authority over your anxious thoughts
and bodily sensations. You are saying "look, I am really
trying to give you all the time I can to unleash X,Y, and Z,
I am being very generous here with this countdown.


Count your way to freedom. Count your way
