A Layman's Guide to Managing Fear

A sure way to overcoming your fears and anxieties is in finding

the source of your fears and being able to manage it. In dealing

with any kinds of fears or anxieties, try to learn what is the

real source of your fears and anxieties. Knowing what is causing

your anxieties can go a long way in finding the solution.

A person can find the source of his or her own fears by doing

some self-evaluation and also by talking to a professional.

Asking yourself questions such as: " Why am I afraid " or " What

is causing my anxiety " will lead you in the right direction in

finding the source of your fears. Give it some time and

eventually you will find the answers your looking for.

Once you find the true source of your fears, the next step is to

find the solutions that will solve your problem. With the help of

a professional, write down a list of possible techniques and

solutions that you think will manage your fear and anxieties. The

next step is to apply the techniques that you uncovered. Here is

a brief list of some techniques you can use to help deal with

your fears.

A good way to manage your worry is to challenge your negative

thinking with positive statements and realistic thinking. When

encountering thoughts that make your fearful or anxious,

challenge those thoughts by asking yourself questions that will

maintain objectivity and common sense.

Be smart in how you deal with your fears and anxieties. Do not

try to tackle everything all at once. When facing a current or

upcoming task that overwhelms you with a lot of anxiety, break

the task into a series of smaller steps. Completing these smaller

tasks one at a time will make the stress more manageable and

increases your chances of success.

Learn to take it one day at a time. Instead of worrying about how

you will get through the rest of the week or coming month, try to

focus on today. Each day can provide us with different

opportunities to learn new things and that includes learning how

to deal with your problems. When the time comes, hopefully you

will have learned the skills to deal with your situation.

Sometimes we encounter a scary situation that gets us all upset.

When encountering these events, always remember to get all of the

facts of the given situation. Gathering the facts can prevent us

from relying on exaggerated and fearful assumptions. By focusing

on the facts, a person can rely on what is reality and what is

not.

In every anxiety-related situation you experience, begin to learn

what works, what doesn't work, and what you need to improve on

in managing your fears and anxieties. For instance, you have a

lot of anxiety and you decide to take a walk to help you feel

better. The next time you feel anxious you can remind yourself

that you got through it the last time by taking a walk. This will

give you the confidence to manage your anxiety the next time

around.

Many people try to get rid of their anxieties and fears without

taking into consideration why they are afraid. The best way to

get rid of your fears is to find those techniques that will

manage the true source of your fears. If you can do this, then

you should be able to overcome your fears and anxieties.
