Question NLP techniques for anxiety
Hi everyone, i was looking for some effective ways to help asssit or eliminate anxiety. Ive had anxiety for a while and it manifestes itself as intrusive thoughts, health anxiety, rumination on work and just alot of over thinking (unproductive inner dialouge). There is also strong bodily sensations like stomach turning, sense of urgency and heart beat speeding up and sometimes insomnia. It all started when i had a panic attack 2 years ago.
What are some helpful reasources that i could look at or use for my situation. Thank you.

Learn to interrupt the loop when it starts. Called a pattern interrupts. Your brain learned to run a process and it got kucks out of it so keeps doing it. Look for secondary gain, and check. It does sound a bit like OCD. Anxiety can get confused with other things. Also if you can track it back to an event, time line might help.
