Hey you. I think you need to hear this. Your anxiety is not dangerous. Anxiety isn't harmful. Anxiety is your body doing exactly what it was designed to do to try to protect you from danger. When your body thinks it's in danger, whether it's due to stress, trauma, overwhelm, it activates autonomic arousal. When your body is an autonomic arousal, you feel fearful, anxious, restless. Your heart pounds. You may sweat. It can feel really dangerous, and it can feel really scary. But just tell yourself. Remind yourself the truth. Your anxiety is not dangerous. Panic is not harmful. You are healthy and your body is just trying to protect you and keep you safe. So let's work on that. Let's help remind your body that it is safe. Let's help shift your nervous system back into calm and peace. I'm here for you. We've got this.
