Hello all.
Much of my postgraduate psychology education has been about understanding human cognition and what happens when we don't feel ourselves. One of these things is understanding the anxiety process. In fact, a great deal of evidence suggests that even being aware of the cognitive model of anxiety can provide resilience against anxiety.
Obviously, this is not to take place in seeing a mental health professional. But being educated about how we feel and how it is perpetuated is important :). Therefore, I would recommend looking up the cognitive behavioural model of anxiety and watching a few videos on it. Simply being aware of what we are feeling is a great step in understanding the complexity of ourselves.
Please take care and remember, you are not alone!
