How to Conquer Fear and Anxiety

How to Conquer Fear and Anxiety

A common occurrence for someone who has an anxiety disorder is to struggle with irrational fear. Our minds often prepare us for the worst case scenario by envisioning it, and while this tactic may have been useful before the modernization of society when we needed this fear to survive, now it’s often unnecessary and obtrusive. Irrational fear caused by an anxiety disorder can not only disrupt your day, when these fears are persistent, they can considerably decrease your quality of life. 

Steps to Overcoming Fear

Living with fear and anxiety as driving forces in your life is no way to live at all. They can hinder our ability to socialize with others, pursue achievements at work, and create all different types of scenarios in our minds that can affect how we conduct our lives. Sometimes seeking professional help is the only way to overcome our irrational fears and manage anxiety disorders. 

If you feel that your fear and anxiety are intrusive and lowering your quality of life, Dr. Cassidy Blair from Blair Wellness Group in Beverly Hills can provide you with treatment, counseling, and other treatments that are designed to help address your fear and anxiety and improve your quality of life. Read on to learn more about how to manage your fears and anxiety, and if you’d like to discover how Dr. Cassidy Blair can help you, schedule a consultation today.

Identify Your Irrational Fears

The first step to conquering your fears is identifying them. Next time you’re in a situation where an irritation fear arises, make a mental note of it, or even say it out loud. Recognize that the fear exists and that you are going to do something about it.

Take a Moment to Breathe

Once you identify that you are experiencing an irrational fear, take a few deep breaths. Find your center and bring yourself back to the present. Try practicing breathing exercises at home so that when you do experience an irrational fear, you can take a moment and utilize an already familiar breathing technique.

Investigate Your Thoughts

Once you’ve taken a few deep breaths, and hopefully calmed your nerves, or at least some of the physical symptoms of your fear, it’s time to take a deeper look into your thoughts. What are you scared of? What triggered this fear? Does this episode have anything in common with the other times that you’ve experienced an irrational fear? The more you understand about your fears and thoughts, the better you can manage your anxiety. 

Look at the Evidence

Next, look at the evidence. It often helps to write down your fears and then create two lists: one with evidence supporting your fear and one that provides evidence that your fears are irrational. While you may have a few items in the supporting column, chances are, you’ll have a lot more evidence proving that your fear is irrational. 

Face Your Fears 

This next step can be incredibly difficult, and depending on the situation as well as your individual anxiety disorder, you may or may not be able to do this alone. Knowing and understanding that your fears are irrational is the first step to facing them, but actually confronting them can be incredibly challenging. If you are able, face your fears head on. You’ll likely see that they were unfounded. However, if you are having difficulty overcoming your fear, treatment can often help.
