Been doing great the woke up in a panic attack about 5 days ago and it's been coming and going in waves still going about as normal hopefully it will pass soon
There horrible things I had constant panic attacks for a year coming down off valium, I had been on it for 18yrs
It always does! Hang in there
Expect it to come, cause it always does. Don’t hope it would go away, cause that would only send the msg to your brain that it’s dangerous and you should avoid it at all costs. The fear of it is what keeps it alive. Expect it to come again and again, and every time it does, you stay with it and just let it be. If you truly accept and surrender to it, and be ready to feel every strange sensation it brings, your nerves eventually realizes that it’s not a threat, and gradually desensitizes to it.
@@ivywoods5926 How long did it take to get better?
I have a self soothing habit of massaging near my heart when I feel anxious. I didn’t think it was wrong at first because it felt soothing but now I do it too often to where it’s getting annoying. I will practice being ok being uncomfortable and not having to do anything about it.
yes!! and don’t let it convince you that it’s uncomfortable if you try to refrain from massaging, you don’t need to do it TO BE comfortable. your body regulates itself to be comfortable without you needing to be doing something about it or controlling it in order to be comfortable
Find these really valuable thank you ❤❤
You both are not just super informative but freaking hilarious. 😂 Sometimes the humor hits me just right. I laugh out loud when you said we try to tell ours kids everything is fine I’m all right and they are like %@&%. 😂 It’s true!!!! They know us too well. Great point!!!! Our body knows us too well.
Hi dare. I’m suffering bad anxiety. I try to tell myself I’m safe but I keep getting horrible feelings in my stomach & I feel shaking. Please help me! X
HEYYYY MOM!!! PERIOD! Lol
Neither of these women have ever had a panic attack and that's why they treat everything as funny and easy

They have!
But to understand that, u have to listen more carefuly to them and NOT try and focus how to get rid of your anxiety/panic attack while listening to them. Because what DARE is about is teaching you how to BE with the anxious state, whatever that is. They never mentioned getting rid of the anxiety because guess what, there isnt a single human being who wont experience anxiety/panic attack in their life, anxiety is basic physiology trying to keep u alive.
That's why Michelle and Aida make it sound funny because tbh there is nothing "wrong" with anyone experiencing that, what is wrong is searching for a way to get rid of the feeling whatever that is.
And if you want to hear those people who make anxiety sound as the next disease impossible to be cured but only managed, then you are in the wrong channel.
How are you doing w this approach? @@Elo-q7o
