Anxiety Help: How can I get over anxiety attacks so I can give a presentation next week?

Sunday Jan 3, 2010

Anxiety help question:

I have severe anxiety and I’ve been having anxiety attacks for months. I can’t take prescription pills because I’m an air traffic controller and I’ve been trying herbs (valerian, ignatia, passion flower) but nothing seems to work. And I ALWAYS have anxiety attacks when I have to speak to a group and next week and have to give a short presentation to everyone in my work and I’m petrified of having an anxiety attack. Please help me.

Anxiety help answer:

Just laugh at whatever the task is, that would be the first step, just have a laugh. Step back from the issue and see it as a minor thing you just have to do. Make a date with a friend or plan something right after so you have something to look forward to the main thing here is no matter what you do you will feel anxiety leading up to the event of speaking right?
Well it’s just like walking in late to class, you know you are late, your heart is racing, you have to get there… but everyone will be sitting down. The best thing to do in both these situations is to just forget about it. Having anxiety and going crazy over it or not going crazy isn’t going to make things better. The outcome of what you have to do will be there anyway. So instead of having anxiety just have neutrality…brush it off…don’t think about it…forget it. What will happen will happen one way or the other it’s the pre-thought that messes everybody up. The best thing to do is act like you don’t care and it will work out trust me.
