Putting an end to the 'What Ifs'

I am on my way to work (hosting a Radio show) uh uh....traffic....a lot of traffic and traffic that is not moving..Oh no, this does not look good.  The traffic is at a standstill for 30 minutes I am running out of time...and I have forgotten to bring my phone to ring the Producer

I get a strange feeling, a feeling of disassociation, it frightens me...I feel a bit lightheaded
am I breathing properly...but I get to the Studio on time and host a passable one hour show.

That evening I determine to do something about my ANXIETY for it always been a part of
my personality.

SYMPTOMS:   the feeling of being light headed or that I might get dizzy is a symptom

AIM recognise it is a symptom

AIM  don't let your worry talk at you as if it was some kind of itch that you have to constantly scratch at.


The symptom (anxiety) may be a false alarm ie it is not a bear you have just come across in the woods. being afraid is not the same as being in danger

We over estimate the perceived danger, triggers for this are , self doubt, catastrophising

AIM to and put a stop to the endless and circular  What Ifs ....what if I pass out...what if....I get so dizzy I can't,,,


also forgive yourself for your emotional make up
