Self-treatment methods for anxiety disorders

Anxiety disorder is a common mental illness in society today. It is mainly caused by the influence of the external environment and negative internal factors. Generally, patients with anxiety disorder often suffer from insomnia, dizziness, diarrhea, distraction, memory loss, worry and irritability. In order to treat anxiety disorder, the medical community has adopted many methods. Among the many methods, self-treatment of anxiety disorder is very effective. The following is a detailed introduction to some self-treatment methods for anxiety disorder [2]:

Self-healing 1: Self-reflection

Some neurotic anxiety disorders are caused by the patient's suppression of certain emotional experiences or desires, which is suppressed to the point of being unintentional, but does not disappear and remains lurking in the unconscious, thus causing the symptoms. When the disease occurs, you only feel pain and anxiety, but you don’t know the cause. Therefore, in this situation, you must reflect on yourself and speak out the things in your subconscious mind that are causing you pain. You can vent your emotions when necessary, and the symptoms will generally disappear after venting.

Self-treatment 2: Self-stimulation

After the onset of neurotic anxiety disorder, patients always have wild thoughts in their minds, feel restless, confused and extremely painful. At this time, the patient can use self-stimulation to divert his attention. For example, when you are having wild thoughts, find an interesting and engaging book to read, or engage in strenuous physical labor to forget about the painful things. This can prevent other symptoms caused by excessive thinking and also enhance your adaptability.

Self-treatment 3: Increase self-confidence

Self-confidence is a necessary prerequisite for curing neurotic anxiety disorder. Some people who lack self-confidence in themselves doubt their ability to complete and cope with things. They exaggerate the possibility of their failure, and thus become anxious, nervous and fearful.

Self-treatment 4: Self-relaxation

That is to free yourself from tension. For example: When you are in a better mental state, imagine various possible dangerous scenarios and let the weakest scenario appear first. By repeating this process over and over again, you will no longer experience anxiety when you think of any dangerous situation or the entire process. This is when it ends.
