But if you could speak with a counselor or do something to increase your confidence - this would help you get over it faster. Imagine in your mind that you're going to stand up to the panic - imagine the panic is a bully. This panic bully will control you - so let it come and don't let it upset you. This will weaken the 'panic bully'.  |
Yes, you MUST tell that panic bully "Go ahead do what you want, whatever happens, I can take it!" and you feel your heart racing, ok what else, you will feel short of breath and weird sensations, ok, you will feel like you are dying, ok, so tell panic, kill me go ahead and try, and let yourself FEEL everything
fully FEEL every sensation without reacting to it or resisting it. Let the sensations overtake you no matter what they do. Let them pass through you. Exaggerate them. Get mad at them.
