A Layman's Guide to Managing Fear

http://www.managingfear.com/

What do you do when someone you know has to deal with persistent

fears, anxieties, or even depression? Well the first thing you

need to do is to get the person to seek the services of a

professional who can lead them in the right direction and give

them the help they need. In addition, here are some other

techniques you can use to help the person cope.

Learn as much as you can in managing anxiety and depression.

There are many books and information that will educate you on

how to deal with fear and anxiety. Share this information with

the person who is struggling. Education is the key in finding

the answers your looking for in managing your fears.

Be understanding and patient with the person struggling with

their fears. Dealing with depression and anxiety can be difficult

for the person so do not add more problems than what is already

there.

The person struggling with the anxiety must realize that managing

anxiety and fear takes practice. When experiencing an anxiety

related situation, begin to learn what works, what doesn't work,

and what you need to improve on in managing your fears and

anxieties. As you do this, you will become better in dealing

with your anxieties.

Learn to manage your negative thoughts. A good way to manage

your fear 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.

Another thing to remember is that things change and events do not

stay the same. For instance, you may feel overwhelmed today with

your anxiety and feel that this is how you will feel the rest of

the week or month. This isn't correct. No one can predict the

future with 100 Percent accuracy. Even if the thing that you

feared does happen there are circumstances and factors that you

can't predict which can be used to your advantage. You never know

when the help and answers you are looking for will come to you.

As a Layman, I realize it is not easy to deal with all of our

fears. When your fears and anxieties have the best of you, seek

help from a professional. The key is to be patient, take it slow,

and not to give up. In time, you will be able to find those

resources that will help you with your problems.
