It is not easy to watch a family member or relative struggle with fear and anxiety. Getting him or her to talk to a professional who can get them started in the right path of getting better is the first step you should take. You need to get them professional help for their fears and anxiety as this is very important. Aside from this, here are a few techniques a person can use to help manage their fears and anxieties.
Learning to take it one day at a time is what you need to do. Try to focus on today instead of worrying about how you will get through the rest of the week or coming month.
In order to manage your fear, a good way would be to challenge your negative thinking with positive statements and realistic thinking. Try to challenge those thoughts by asking yourself questions that will maintain objectivity and common sense when you encounter thoughts that make you fearful or anxious.
Being nervous to do a certain ask that may be scary can sometimes happen to us. When this happens, visualize yourself doing the task in your mind. An example would be you and your team playing in the championship hockey game in front of a large group of people in the next few days. Imagine yourself playing the game in your mind before the big day comes. Imagine that your playing in front of a large audience. By playing the game in your mind, you will be better prepared to perform for real when the time comes.
If you want to reduce the fear and stress of a coming situation, then self visualization is a great way to do so.
