The problem with avoidance


for 16 år siden 0 11226 logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo 0
Members,
When we avoid things due to anxiety, we miss out. As you probably already know, escaping the situation you find yourself in when you have anxiety can lead to problems.
  • Problem 3: The more you avoid, the less you’re able to lead a full, happy and productive life. As a result of escaping and avoiding, you don’t get to do a lot of things other people get to enjoy such as, going out with friends, driving, going to a movie or going away of vacation.
  • Problem 4: When people aren’t able to enjoy life because of avoidance, they beat themselves up. People with panic or anxiety usually say escaping makes them feel better in the short-term but worse in the long-term. The end result is negative thoughts about themselves, the world and the future. This can lead to depression.
How has anxiety impacted your life?
