Centrum tip - Worried about being anxious?
Last updated: Friday, January 18, 2008

Take action:
Follow the following self-help guidelines if you feel anxious: Picture a person you trust and imagine the person is with you, offering you encouragement; recall a time you handled a similar situation well and the good feelings you experienced at that time; focus on the present, on concrete objects around you and invent questions about every object you identify; count backwards from 20 and with every number, picture a different image of someone you love or something that calms you; remind yourself that an anxiety attack always ends.
