It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that almost everyone I work with is dealing with an issue which is based, at least in part, in anxiety.
Life can stressful and demanding and exhausting. These things can all lead to anxiety which can manifest in many different ways.
Forgetting how to relax, how to switch off and sleep. Anxiety often results in periods of insomnia - either an inability to fall asleep or to stay asleep.
Forgetting how to enjoy life. Forgetting how it felt to just be ok, let alone how to have fun.
Opting out, falling ill, staying in, not engaging with the world. Maybe developing issues with socialising or driving or even going into work.
Getting obsessive - trying to control everything, micro-manage everything.
Ruminating and catastrophising - going over and over the same negative thoughts, unable to make progress with them, unable to let them go.
Panicking. Maybe having a panic attack and then panicking about panicking. Looking for symptoms, getting more and more anxious.
Smoking, drinking or eating more. Feeling bad about it and so smoking, drinking or eating yet more. Getting more and more anxious, feeling more and more helpless.
The list goes on! There are so many manifestations of anxiety. Phobias, emotional eating, addictions and habits, sleep problems, skin problems, migraines...
The good news is that Hypnotherapy can really help calm your over-anxious mind and help you to move forward again and enjoy life.
