How To Combat Anxiety Among Students Is The Workings Of Applied Positive Psychology

By Gregory Myers


These days, there are so many reasons as to why people are struggling with health issues. Whether this is physical or mental. Reasons can range from social media to crime and much more. The sad part about this all is that it strongly affects the youth, and as students, their main priority should be education. So it's clear why the need for applied positive psychology is dire.

Have you ever found that after you ate something, you immediately shut down? Perhaps you became either sick or lethargic? The types of foods that you eat need to be aligned with what your body wants. When you consume stuff that is rejected by your body, you will immediately feel terrible, and this physical feeling affects your emotional state also. This is why you need to ensure that you eat healthily so that you are always feeling your best.

When it comes to social media, there should be boundaries. As you would with kids, there is a set time allocated for them to use their devices and times when they need to do a chore or homework. The same concept needs to be followed even with adults. It is quite easy to become side-tracked and so involved in what is happening elsewhere, that you forget to deal with the now.

The tendency is that if you feel anxious, you will question everything that you need to do. It is a sense of paranoia that takes over your mind and body. The best way to combat this is to just go ahead and do it. You will find that you immediately feel a sense of relief. And once it is over, there was no reason to stress in the first place.

A common activity that you will find among st those alike, is they tend to take a step back and just breathe. This is the moment when they basically telling their mind to relax and their body to ease up. The breathing helps this process and makes you feel calmer so that you can start over without the feeling of something taking over you. You can always try this and maybe even in a group with others.

If all else fails, you can always visit your doctor for an assessment. Once this step has taken place and it is conformed that you suffer from anxiety, he or she will then recommend a therapist to you who you would need to book an appointment with. The therapist is the one who would prescribe medication to you which is mean to calm you down. This is mainly for extreme cases.

Sometimes, it may feel as though it is an extreme case but it really isn't. It is important to follow the basic steps first and if they work, it means that you can control it. Try this before heading to the GP.

Unfortunately, this is not something that you can control from the start. Once you start stressing, you can easily bring it to life. The important part is how you handle it once you recognize the problem.
