How To Help Someone Who Suffers With Anxiety Problems
I have a close friend who suffers from anxiety from time to time. In the book, "Helping Someone With an Anxiety Disorder," I will share with you some very important information on how to deal with the mood swings that close friends, family members or spouses may encounter while interacting with someone who battles with anxiety.
Of all the things I am going to share in this book, the most important is what I will reveal now:
Don’t lose yourself by getting overly focused on the moods and actions of the person you love and care about who is suffering with anxiety issues. You must not get so intertwined with the other person that your life revolves around everything he or she does.
If you have regular interactions with the person suffering from panic and anxiety attacks, consider seeking professional help for yourself. One of the things that has helped me tremendously is being involved in support group meetings that are centered around learning relationship skills. One of my favorite 12-step groups is designed to help people who are codependent.
Take great care of yourself. Schedule plenty of time away from your friend or relative. Periodically be selfish with your time with the intent of enjoying your life apart from the person who is ill with anxiety. I’ve found that being involved in church, exercising on a regular basis, and investing time in my hobbies has really helped me not get too intertwined in my friend’s illness.
Anxiety Disorder is a serious problem and it affects a great number of people. It is a condition separate from a normal panic episode, where a person is suddenly worried by something; anxiety when it is a disorder is born from irrational triggers. They are often trivial and non-threatening but are perceived as ominous by an incapable patient.
Depending on the development of the condition, a patient could very well be dealing with something that is way beyond their capacity. As an outsider, you hold the responsibility of filling gaps and providing assistance where there is insufficiency. When a patient is your close friend, your family member or your spouse—his condition sometimes automatically becomes yours, because his problems are translated to your life, as well.
A Look Inside Of This Kindle Book About Helping Someone Suffering With Anxiety
As an outsider, it is not going to be easy to watch someone you care for, as he or she slowly suffers the symptoms of anxiety disorder. This is most especially true if the problem is already damaging to the daily life of the individual. Anxiety has the tendency to overcome a person’s life, so that his or her daily life is affected. At its most intense conditions, anxiety can disable a person and keep them from functioning. It is your role, as an outsider to provide guidance to the “lost sheep†if it is necessary. Help is essential in any case of anxiety disorder because the people are often helpless and hopeless. Your role as an outsider is to watch over the recovery of the patient, and your assistance should be patterned to the personal needs of the patient.
