Cure Your Panic Attacks By Stopping Your Obsessive
Have you ever asked what the root cause of all your panic and anxiety truly is? Well, in my opinion, it’s very likely to be the obsessive thoughts you have. These obsessive thoughts are like snowballs that gather momentum and size and turn into the problems your anxiety causes you.
You might be thinking that this isn’t how anxiety works with you and that obsessive thoughts aren’t to blame, and if that’s the situation I’d like you to start paying attention to your own anxiety and to what you’re feeling and thinking right before it gets out of hand.
Most people are staggered at the results when they study themselves in this way, and I think there’s a good chance you will be too. And there’s a good reason why I can predict this kind of outcome: because for many years (almost 20, in fact) I lived with exactly the same problems you’re living with right now.
Unfortunately, when you have an anxiety disorder, it’s impossible to drop a thought automatically like most other people can. So the solution to this problem is finding ways to consciously drop a thought before it becomes harmful – before it becomes OBSESSIVE.
So I’m gonna share a quick 3 step system you can start using TODAY anytime you have a harmful or negative thought that you need to stop before it becomes obsessive and causes you real problems. And here are the 3 steps:
First Step: This step is all about you retraining your mind so that it can easily spot harmful thoughts the moment they start. This also includes small thoughts that might seem harmless, but these have the potential to grow and get out of hand, so consider these small ones just as important as the bigger ones.
Step two is to learn a technique that will allow you to stop these unwanted thoughts, and the one I recommend is to simply use other thoughts to overpower the original one. This makes sense, because the only thing that can ever stop one thought is another thought. The key here is to make this second thought a positive one. Play around with thoughts – use anything that works and overpowers that original and unwanted thought.
Step #3: Most harmful thoughts start when you’re daydreaming or when your mind is wandering. And these harmful thoughts are a HABIT. That’s why they happen so easily and sneak up on you, because you’ve trained your mind to slip into a negative autopilot. The only way to undo this is to retrain your mind, and you do that by thinking about nice things as often as you can, even if you have to use fantasies or old memories to do it. Think of it like creating a new default setting for your mind.
Use these 3 steps to quickly put a stop to your obsessive thoughts and your panic attacks
