People seek help for their anxiety and pain when their usual way of functioning in life is not paying off. When our normal, self-limiting, risk-avoiding ways cease to work for us we reach out to a doctor or therapist with the hope that these specialists can 'fix' our broken world. As specialists, we assume these people know a secret, some message, word or pill that will magically transform us. What you have likely learned by now is that this is hardly the case.
The cause of your anxiety and distress stems from bad habits - thinking and behavioral habits which have been programmed and conditioned over the course of your life. These habits include: negative what-if thinking, automatic knee-jerk assumptions, obsessive scary circular thinking, unrealistic expectations, perfectionism and more.
You have developed these habits in part to your personality and upbringing. And these anxiety producing the conditioned responses we have add to our thoughts and stress in our environment.
So, you really want to get off this emotional rollercoaster? Well, you've come to the right source!
As you go through the Attacking Anxiety and Depression Program, you will develop a more complete understanding of anxiety, what it is and isn’t, and what it can do both mentally and physically.

You will learn coping skills and techniques that will help you through stressful or normally anxiety producing situations. You will learn to see and respond differently, to be more compassionate with yourself and feel more relaxed and calm.
