Anxiety

While anxiety has a lot to do with one's thinking and spirituality, it also has to do with
our bodies.

One physical aspect of anxiety involves centers in the brain called basal ganglia. These
centers deal with fear and fine motor skills. When we experience panic or extreme anxiety,
these centers become over-active. We may predict the worst, become shaky and become too
sensitive to body functions. We feel and experience too much. We feel our heart beating.
We are too aware. This is useful if we were in a situation where we need to escape from a
real danger. People who have had a panic attack will do everything they can not to
experience another one. It feels like certain death and loss of control. It is the
over-control that can actually make the condition worse.
Obsessive thinking can also trigger anxiety. These thoughts usually are repetitive and difficult to redirect. In brain imaging we see that when this happens, we see over activity
in the cingulated gyrus. We might worry about our health, germs, or disease. What people
think of us might start to rule our actions. We might experience intrusive thoughts about
hurting someone or ourselves. We then worry about, "why am I thinking these thoughts? Am I
going to lose my mind?" Fear of what people are going to think about us and worry about
losing control is also classic symptoms of anxiety.
It is important to know that people do recover from anxiety. The first step is to find
someone "safe" to share your feelings and what has happened. Sharing with a trust friend
can bring some relief. Sharing with a counselor can bring some good information and tools
to develop a recovery plan. Talking with someone can help us gain perspective and realize
this will pass. It is kind of like a ground wire in electricity--it stops us from
short-circuiting.
