Читать книгу Overcoming Panic: My Way to Freedom from Anxiety - - Страница 3

Hello, dear friends. My name is Svetlana, and a couple of months ago, I had a panic attack. That’s what I would say if I went to a group session with a psychologist. But I decided to write a book and talk about it here with you, my dear readers.

I will not go into details about what a panic attack is, as you can read about it online. There is a lot written about it.

But I want to tell you about myself, how I came to live like this, and how I cope with this problem. I know that many people suffer from neuroses, fears, and panic attacks nowadays. And no one can help them because many simply do not understand them. There are those who say they know what it is, but in reality, they know nothing. (They only think they know). And there are loved ones who love you very much and try to understand and support you. There are also psychologists and psychotherapists, but finding a good doctor these days is very difficult.

When faced with panic attacks, I was surprised to discover that literally every fourth or fifth person suffers from this ailment. People really suffer, and there is no such pill that could instantly remove it from your body. And since I am trying to get out of this unpleasant, and perhaps painful state on my own, I decided to write this book. Perhaps my methods of relief and recovery will help others like me.

How it was. If you are reading this book and you are also struggling with panic attacks, then if some moments seem distressing to you, skip them, read the essence quickly, and take only what is most useful. That’s how I read it myself. Sometimes, descriptions of ailments annoy me, and I skip entire paragraphs because there’s no need to be impressed by someone else’s problems. We all have our own story and our own fears. But the essence is one – it’s fear that our body has experienced and recorded at the subconscious level. But still, I will tell you a little more about everything in more detail.

Over these two months, I have analyzed a lot, trying to understand from which moment in my subconscious mind this «defense» program was born (and now activated), where did everything start for me?
