Overcoming Anxiety
If you look at the top 10 prescription pharmaceuticals in the United States over the last few decades, anti-anxiety and antidepressant medications have always made the list. This is not a coincidence or a fluke.
We live in an extremely stressful world. In truth, many Americans suffer from anxiety problems in some form or another. It can take many forms, but make no mistake: it obstructs your ability to live a more successful life.
You must deal with anxiety if you want to be more successful in your relationships, or just want to be a happy person, or if you want to be more effective in your profession.
Unfortunately, because the vast majority of people deal with anxiety in all the wrong ways, this is easier said than done.
If you're reading this book, you're probably dealing with anxiety in some form or another, or you know someone who is. Please keep in mind that this book gives you strategies for dealing with anxiety.
Finally, anxiety is a result of a mix of your environment, genetic predisposition, and coping methods. Never underestimate how much power you have over your circumstances.
Many people believe that if they have a genetic propensity for a disease, they have no control over how they are affected. In other words, they have no control over their circumstances.
This is unfortunate since the multibillion-dollar pharmaceutical business profits from people believing this.
Because there isn't much you can do if you have no individual control over anxiety and it's just a foregone conclusion, and your only option is to seek counseling combined with psycho-pharmaceutical intervention. You don't have much of a choice.
Please realize that you have far more power and influence on the situation than you give yourself credit for.
Please note that I am not recommending that you seek professional therapy for psychiatric or psychological issues. That's not what I'm saying.
I recommend working with a professional, but keep in mind that you can supplement what they offer you or prescribe with things you can do on your own. These are tactics for resetting your mentality so that you can keep control of your life.
You're suffering from anxiety because you believe you're losing control.
You have the impression that you live in a world that you did not create, and that something horrible is about to happen for a variety of reasons, or that you are suffering from shame, remorse, doubt, and other negative emotions related to the past.
Please keep in mind that the past is the past. Those events have already occurred.
It's not like you can go back in time and change what happened. That is a fact. They have already occurred. It isn't much you can do to stop them. That milk has spilled.
Similarly, if you're concerned about the future, there's nothing to be concerned about because it hasn't happened yet. The things you're afraid of haven't happened yet.
The only option you have is to deal with your thinking in the present moment. The stronger your relationship with your past grows, and the better equipped you are to manage the future when it occurs, the more you optimize your influence over your current mentality.
This book shows you how to conquer anxiety without the use of pharmaceuticals, without the use of professional and costly psychiatric counseling, and by simply rearranging your "mental and emotional furniture".
