Something New - No anxiety Talk

Since this forum is all about Anxiety, let make this post fun abit.  Give an anxiety/panic example that you feel and than turn it to positive. I'll go first

Im afraid to eat because I think I will have an Allergic reaction - Why should I be afraid. I do not have any allergies to any foods that I know of just seasonal allergies, what are the chances I will actually have an anaphylaxis reaction?  

you try it,  Its very hard to  believe what I wrote im still trying to convince myself but its a start.

Go.

Nice obscure cartoon reference Rei!! ;p ;p ;p

Great thread idea Bam!! This is one of the priciples behind CBT therapy. ;)

Defusing a fear through looking at it in a rational manner, rather than just allowing the pure emotion of fear to drive our thought processes is pwerful!

Asking ourselves; "How likely is this to really happen or be true." can help us to not get carried away with the what if worries.

Really good thread topic! :)

Great Thread Bam, I'm proud of you for trying to think of the positive side, keep it up!!!!!
