I can relate to that, I'm a very anxious person myself but that's just the way I'm made. I do find I get more anxious when I'm hormonal - maybe you can get your hormone levels checked out? It's good to make sure you've got a clean bill of health, as vitamin deficiencies can also contribute to a feeling of malaise, or so I've read.</p><p></p><p>I get so anxious at times I don't know what to do with myself! I've also had a couple of panic attacks.</p><p></p><p>Over the recent past few months, when I'm feeling anxious, I try to take a step back in my mind and say to myself "ok, so I'm feeling anxious, I accept that, but it doesn't have to define me. I am not what I'm feeling." And I find that helps. I have to keep reminding myself though, to take that step back and see a difference between "me" and "my feelings". See if you can try this?</p><p></p><p>I think I might have an idea of the "waiting for the other shoe to drop" sensation. A "too-good-to-be-true", nothing good can happen without something bad... I think this is a "control" problem. I imagine abusive relationships would take away your sense of control, the world is dictated by the other person. You might have been living on eggshells, wondering if a step to the left would incite your partner's wrath, so you over-analyse every single thought and every action because whatever you say or do brings with it the (very real in that relationship) threat of a negative reaction from your partner.</p><p></p><p>Perhaps you're still waiting for the negative reaction?</p><p></p><p>I think the best way to get around this kind of anxiety is to learn more about the Sikh concept of Hukam. You have no control. When you think you do, and it's proven to you that you don't, you suffer. You need to realise that whatever will happpen, will happen. Do your best and leave the rest to Hukam. Accept what the hukam brings you, and work with it.</p><p></p><p><a href="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.gurbani?Action=KeertanPage&K=70&L=10&id=2830"

it into the context of releasing the reins to Waheguru:</p><p></p><p><table cellspacing="5"><tbody><tr><td><span style="font-family: 'AnmolUniPr'"><span style="font-size: 10px"><span style="color:

[QUOTE="Ishna, post: 151743, member: 2709"] [b]re: Sikhs Should Be Afraid of Nothing[/b] Bhenji, I'm sorry to hear about your abusive relationship. motherlylove It's really good you're free of it now. I can only speculate as I don't have much experience with these issues, sorry! Background anxiety... I can relate to that, I'm a very anxious person myself but that's just the way I'm made. I do find I get more anxious when I'm hormonal - maybe you can get your hormone levels checked out? It's good to make sure you've got a clean bill of health, as vitamin deficiencies can also contribute to a feeling of malaise, or so I've read. I get so anxious at times I don't know what to do with myself! I've also had a couple of panic attacks. Over the recent past few months, when I'm feeling anxious, I try to take a step back in my mind and say to myself "ok, so I'm feeling anxious, I accept that, but it doesn't have to define me. I am not what I'm feeling." And I find that helps. I have to keep reminding myself though, to take that step back and see a difference between "me" and "my feelings". See if you can try this? I think I might have an idea of the "waiting for the other shoe to drop" sensation. A "too-good-to-be-true", nothing good can happen without something bad... I think this is a "control" problem. I imagine abusive relationships would take away your sense of control, the world is dictated by the other person. You might have been living on eggshells, wondering if a step to the left would incite your partner's wrath, so you over-analyse every single thought and every action because whatever you say or do brings with it the (very real in that relationship) threat of a negative reaction from your partner. Perhaps you're still waiting for the negative reaction? I think the best way to get around this kind of anxiety is to learn more about the Sikh concept of Hukam. You have no control. When you think you do, and it's proven to you that you don't, you suffer. You need to realise that whatever will happpen, will happen. Do your best and leave the rest to Hukam. Accept what the hukam brings you, and work with it. [url]http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.gurbani?Action=KeertanPage&K=70&L=10&id=2830[/url] You might like this Shabad.

You have to be fearless when you're 40 men against hundreds. I can't speak about it because I'm ignorant, I'm not a soldier. But I can imagine, if you get yourself to a state of mind where you realise everything is the creative soup and whether you live or die you're still in the soup, it may take away some degree of fear. I'll try to remember that when I'm paralised outside by a lightning storm... hahaha! So much easier said than done, those Sikhs fighting with Guruji must have been so inspired! [/QUOTE]
