Feel like I'm going to go crazy

How to deal with night panick attack

It’s easy to say “respond with humor.” Personally this approach doesn’t work for me. I face my fears head on every single day. I’ve sat through several panic attacks and try to be brave. I’ve quit nicotine, changed my diet and have avoided caffeine and watch my sugar. I work out. Nothing seems to work.

These should have a million likes!

This is what im currently struggling with. I will find a future problem and fight it all the time and cant allow myself to let go of the fight. But im getting better at allowing myself to let go of the fight.

I've had anxiety and panic disorder for eight years. I worked out regularly for two years but had to take a month off due to panic attacks during workouts. Now, I'm afraid to lift weights because of heart palpitations and fear of a heart attack, causing me to lose muscle mass. Please help me so I can lift weights again.

Perfect❤

These women carry on the much needed reinforcement of the teachings of Claire Weekes. So glad to see them both do great work.

29:10 Feeling relaxed after hearing Aida saying Dpdr comes from the emotional realm and not mental realm and she realizes us that how we question our reality is the biggest sign of our sanity. Lots and lots of love to the dare team members❤

Thank you so much for this. You are a great help. 🙏🏻

u guys have helped me so much. i can’t explain how helpful this video is thank u so much

Just a little reminder for you future readers. This method isn't about "stopping anxiety/panic in it's tracks" right away. The truth is, this method works because you're actively facing your anxiety/panic without reacting to it. That means that you will in fact 110% be uncomfortable. There is no way around this. It takes constant practice, but the good news is it gets easier each time your employ this behavior. So just a reminder, it will be uncomfortable. Your response to this matters, though. The more you trigger these sensations, and do not react on the outside you're healing each time. Is your heart pounding, sweating, feeling a sense of doom, and feeling hard to breath? Loosen up as much as you possibly can, do not try to make an effort to make your heart stop beating, don't try to splash your face with water, do not fight these sensations, don't try to distract yourself, don't look for an exit, don't leave, and do not breath manually. This is all part of anxiety/panic. Let it happen. Your response on the outside is the only thing that matters. You will fail a few times, but listen. Every time you sit with this just a little longer each time, the more progress you're making. You will have setbacks, and you will be scared/uncomfortable. The only thing you need to remember is do not react. This is the part that seems nearly impossible until you've practiced enough until you've sat through an entire episode. Once you've sat through an entire episode of a panic attack, or extreme anxiety a few times it will happen less, and less until you do not get these feelings or thoughts anymore. I'm living proof of it. I had 1-3 panic attacks daily, agoraphobia, and severe anxiety for nearly five years. I worked myself into not responding, and one day I sat through a full blown panic attack. It stopped in 10 seconds. All that happened was my heart sped up, body temperature rose, and my stomach got tight. I have not had a panic attack in over two years now. After the panic, I was stuck with anxiety still. I accepted it, and the random anxiety went away within 3 months of just not reacting on the outside. It's scary, it's hard, and it's not comfortable but you too can recover fully. It will take a while, but your nervous system will rewire itself. Lump in your throat, body temperature raising, sense of impending doom, shortness of breath, chatter in your brain, wanting to run away from the situation, tensing up, scared you're going mad, etc. All of these things are your nervous system reacting. These are all JUST anxiety symptoms, remember that. They cannot, and will not hurt you as uncomfortable as they are. Go at your own pace, little by little. Each time aim for sitting in that uncomfortable feeling just a little longer than the last. Before you know it, the uncomfortable becomes comfortable. You can rewire your nervous system. Anxiety is a complex paradoxical beast that feeds on your reaction. It is perfectly normal to freak out in your head, just do not attempt to stop it anymore. Let it happen, and be willing to be uncomfortable without stopping what you're doing. Take a moment to feel it as a whole, then continue doing what you need to do at the moment. You got this. Good luck. It's not about doing something to stop it, it's about not doing anything to stop it.

I have chips here don't ask me why

New to the Dare app. Having trouble applying it in real life situations like work, driving, sitting in front of people, etc. it’s very difficult to focus on what’s going on when all I worry about is my health 😢

Only 6 minutes in and this is SO good. THANK YOU!!!

It's a shame her book doesn't have a Portuguese version

I feel like when you care too much, that's when the anxiety kicks in. I remember being numb from a bad situation and did not care. I drove much better, went on highways, etc, but now I am back to myself, and now the anxiety is coming back. I am anxious about the speed and the bend of the freeway. I can't go fast enough. I fear losing control and end up in the other lane. My body grinch when a big truck passes me on the highway. I need help!!

Thanks I'm so grateful for DARE. I learn so much about how anxiety works.

Does anyone on here have anxiety because the road is bent a certain way? I have wicked anxiety of that, especially the ones on the highway.

How do I do exposure when my fear is crashing on purpose? I won’t drive. That intrusive thought terrifies me and the panic is off the charts!!!

How do I go about driving when my intrusive thoughts about driving off the bridge or crashing on purpose scare me to death?

Love this podcast!! Thank you.

What a wonderful episode! Thank you so much.❤️

I won’t drive because I have crazy thoughts of driving off the bridge or crashing on purpose. How do I deal with that?

Thank you! I’ve been working on acceptance of symptoms and trying so hard to be patient as I recover from menopause-induced anxiety disorder. I have made progress, but even though I thought I understood setbacks and bumpy patches as being an expected part of the process, I’ve still been struggling and feeling disappointed when they occur. However, I have a BA in psychology so this video speaks to me and I finally get it when I hear it put in the context of classical conditioning.

Thank you, Bary. This is video is helping me through a difficult relapse into panic disorder ❤

This is the only way...resistance creates friction that makes anxiety worst..let it flow and allow it 100%..

Michelle, your life’s work is very important and you are good at what you do.

The only difficulty I have with doing this is when I’m in a situation that requires my attention. If I’m at work talking to someone, I want to stay and not run off to a safe space. I want to stay and face my fears. My parents were over last night; and my mom was speaking negatively about her health and had said that someone she knew had a stroke. I immediately go into a full blown panic attack from hearing this, as I have when other people have talked about other health issues. I’m not sure how to do this in the middle of everything going on. I want to be present but it’s so hard to do right in the middle of things that require me to be there.

Cardiophobia can stop you exercising it’s a horrible feeling

I've recently downloaded the app and started reading the book. This was my first podcast I listened to and I feel personally attacked! 😂 Thanks for all the great information.

Your both soo funny 😂😂

Yes anxiety finds a way to find any random reason to form an issue. 😅 it’s all the same thing but it’s so innovative to catch your attention but all the same. I was also told don’t cry as a child And don’t make that face! When I was upset. I grew up hiding all my emotions ❤ I definitely don’t know how to handle uncomfortable feelings.

The change of weather definitely makes me confuse feeling hot with anxiety. Thank you guys for this you have no idea how much these videos help

You are a hoot!

It’s just an unconscious habit your subconscious and body falls into

What about if uou also have trauma such as cptsd? Does that change anything about this proscription tp deal with anxiety?

So how do you "practice" and go out and live your life and do what you have to do or would like to do if your anxiety/panic attacks trigger IBS-D attacks of diarrhea and vomiting where you're practically chained to a toilet for a while OR you have to be near one at all times just in case?

Dr Sanjay Gupta *The Best Doctor* !!!!

I don’t have support .

Where do I find dare to buy ?

I'm in the field and have to say, You two really know your stuff! I wish I would have found you a few years ago.

Does this apply to physical sensations as well (dizzy, unsteadiness)? I know you say a lot about thoughts, but would this apply to symptoms as well? Do we treat them the same way as we would our thoughts?

Makes so much sense. Thanks, Michelle. The modern Claire Weekes of today.

Healing develops in compassion, mercy and understanding. Grace…is the key. Critical, self condemning and frustration are fertile ground for anxiety.

I never knew that the dogs were taught to ‘un-learn’ the response!! Even though theoretically I know it’s possible to make new more positive associations and break old conditioning, this somehow has given me fresh inspiration and confidence . Thanks 🙏🙌✨💪✈️

Hope you’re ok Dee. It’s an awful feeling xx

I'm literally crying this makes so much sense.

When i listened positif affirmation you spread, I felt sad because i remembered how i was before i got a panic attack, and for today and the next day my soul rises to recover from this panic attack. Thankyou very much greeting from indonesia 🇮🇩🇮🇩🙏🙏

Hey man it’s Dave 😂 Doesn’t anyone remember Cheech and Chong?
