Spirituality information - journey in the fields of forever part 76

“Good to see you again, Pandayji,” I replied as I seated myself across from him. I was anxious to ask him about his experiences in the meadow, but thought I’d wait a while. Over breakfast, we discussed my schedule for the week and agreed there would be enough free time to visit some interesting sites in the north, if I felt like it. Still not a word from him about last night, so I brought up the subject. Since I wasn’t sure whether the whole event was the result of my overactive imagination, I was rather cautious in my approach. “I had some weird things happen last night, Pandayji,” I said.


He looked up immediately and said,“Yourroomwasn’t comfortable? I’ll speak with them.”


“No, not my room, Pandayji. Just some dreams I think,” I replied.


He creased his forehead, as if trying to recall, and said,“Now that I think of it, I, too, had some dreams in which you and Mardai, Jonathan and Malika were present. But I can’t remember anything else. Seems like others were there, too.”


“What others?” I asked, “Gideon and Marla?”


“I know them through your books, John, and yet, I’ve never personally met them. There’s a familiarity with the names, but really, I have no idea who else might have been in my dream. And even if I had met Gideon and Marla, I wouldn’t have known who they were.” He smiled and said that he had slept well and was sorry he couldn’t remember the rest of his dream. However, I knew he believed dreams were important and had a beneficial effect on our daily lives. Mardai was right, I thought. Pandayji forgot that he had met us last night. Then he asked me what my dream was about.


“Well,” I replied, “I saw Mardai and the children. Gideon and Marla were there too, but the strangest thing was that you were there speaking with Gideon and Marla. To me, it was more than a dream, Pandayji. It was so real . . . as real as our sitting here right now. Perhaps, it wasn’t a dream at all. Perhaps, it really happened.”


“There are many mysteries on Earth, John,” he said, “many dimensions to life. We probably exist in all these dimensions simultaneously. But I think we only remember them vaguely so that we don’t confuse them.”

You deserve to do what you love

When we pursue doing what we’re passionate about what does that mean? John Dir says in his article How to Find Your Passion, “Passion is a pure form of motivation or compulsion that provides an energizing constant which is independent of environmental demands. It is an irresistible drive to focus one’s attention and energy to accomplishing something of personal worth, which cannot be daunted by a sense of failure to accomplish the goal.” Did you ever wake up one morning way before the alarm went off just because you were going to do something you just couldn’t wait to do? What was it? You deserve to do what you love! In fact it’s exactly what you’re supposed to be doing.


Oh, you knew that already? So how do you figure it out?


Let’s start with the obvious:


1. What would you do if you were independently wealthy


and no longer had to do anything to earn money?


2. What do you enjoy doing so much that you would do it


everyday for free?


These questions are not easy for some people to answer. Many people consider these questions frivolous. After all, I’m not independently wealthy and I can’t afford to work for free.


Well, back up. I didn’t ask if you were wealthy I asked what you would do if you were. Please… allow yourself the opportunity to dream. This is a key. I know you know how to daydream you do it everyday.


You see if you get stuck on how to make money with your passion you’re not going to allow yourself to figure it out. Go back to question #2. What are you doing now for free that you love to do? Listen to your heart, not what you think others expect of you.


Plan the time in your life to do more of what you enjoy doing. Put it on your day planner if you have to. If you love to travel, plan it. Go online and study the places you want to go. Read about the hotels and the sights. Envision yourself doing those things. Plan day trips around where you live go find the unusual things in your neighborhood. Get guide books on your state and become an expert at finding the places that interest you. Practice traveling in your back yard. Take a picnic if you can’t afford to stop and eat. Do It!


I spend at least an hour each day studying Philosophy and Personal Development. I can’t get enough information it consumes my free time but it’s what I look forward to everyday it’s what I’m excited about each morning. What am I going to learn today that I can share with others?


Now let’s get to the money part. You may never earn a penny from your passion but what does it matter if you’re doing what you love. At least in your spare time. However, if you become knowledgeable in a particular area that you love and over time you know more about it than most other people guess what? You have value in that area. How do you market that value? Write an eBook and sell it through ClickBank, build a website, write a book to get published, share what you’re learning with others when you have the opportunity, teach it at an adult learning center, write articles to submit on the internet. Information today is like gold, it has great value and there are people everywhere looking for it. And just imagine how much joy you will get out of sharing what you love with others. They will not help but see your passion. I have read that after about 4 years, people who have pursued their passion start to make close to what they made in their old unfulfilling jobs – often even more.


I offer one more quote from John Dir’s article How to Find Your Passion, “Your life’s passion may be discovered in an instant, or take many long years to uncover. You will know you have it when your heart of hearts tells you, “I don’t care what other people think. I know this is what I want to do, and I am going to get started making it happen. I don’t care how long it takes, or how difficult it will be for me to accomplish; I just know I need to see where this idea will take me.””

Spirituality information - john harricharan s interview with terri marie q1

Terri Marie: I would be honored to do that, Vish. It's always a great pleasure to talk with my good friend, John. And John, I can't wait to ask you some of these questions. I've been saving questions up for a long time, and I have three pages. I know we're not going to get through them all today, but I wanted to at least give the listeners a taste of the incredible wisdom and insights that you have.


So I'd like to start with -- when did you first realize, John, that there was a spiritual side to life?


John Harricharan: It's interesting because that's a question that's asked of me always, in interviews, in talks, wherever -- "When did you realize there is a different side, a spiritual side, to life?" And my answer is this. It's another question. It's -- When did I realize that I needed air to breathe, to live, or I needed food?


I can't say when I had that realization. I have a feeling that that realization is deep within each and every one of us. And we do look at it consciously, as we grow older. So I would say I was born with this, just like I think that all almost 7 billions of us on earth are born with it. I just started looking at it at a much earlier age.


Terri Marie: Well, thank you, John. And you seem to have a great grasp of this and you can put it into such simple terms. How are people going to be able to use this Spiritual simplicity site to help their spiritual growth?


John Harricharan: One of my mottos was one of the things I have always wanted to do was to make things so simple that everybody or anybody, just anyone, at any level would be able to understand them. I am reminded of what Albert Einstein once said, which was "Everything should be made as simple as possible and not one bit simpler."


So the Spiritual simplicity site, I think, is going to be one of the greatest gifts that we could give here on earth that Vish is putting together with some of my input, because it will take all these complex things. Everything that people are talking about, if boiling a crystal, facing the morning sun, and drinking the water and turning around three times, and all kinds of rituals and all kinds of teachings, self-help, self-development, talk about mantras and kundali rising, and what not -- things that people don't even have any idea exist and put them into what I call practical, simple methods of achieving harmony in life of balance and body mind spirit.


It’s got to be useful. It’s got to be simple. So that anyone could use it. I like what my late friend the great Sunbear used to say, “If your medicine doesn’t grow corn, what good is it. “ So if what we say in this site doesn’t help people to become more prosperous if they are not, became healthier if they have lacked health and they become -- have the greatest best relationships on earth, if what we teach or what we share in this site, wouldn’t do that than what use is it. So that’s what the site is designed to do.

Casting off and setting sail taking off the mask---moving ahead making a difference--serving

You have dreams, don't you? Perhaps, as mine once were, they have been obscured by time, hidden in the dark recesses of your mind, or slumbering undisturbed in your heart. Have you forgotten them entirely? Or occasionally, do they cross your mind, peek out from their hiding places, making a timid leap in your bosom, only to be hushed silent by you again and again.


There is something about the spirit of man that denies total unconsciousness. There is something about the spirit of man that defies stagnation. Fight as we may, "You can't do that!" "You'd never achieve that!" "You're too old now!" "You're not good enough, bright enough, talented enough!" yet, we cannot hush the gentle whispers that come in more quiet moments. They vigilantly reappear like old friends, don't they?


You've felt that surge of hope at times. Someone taking time to believe in you, to remind you of your incredible worth. And, for a moment--a priceless moment in time--you believed, too. You smiled. You closed your eyes. You imagined. You hoped. Your dreams came alive again and the world was your oyster! And then you opened your eyes and your smile faded, your vision vanished, your hope disappeared.


Isn't it time to get off the merry-go-round? This is your life! This is your moment! Every day is your "present" to unwrap and receive. It belongs only to you, and you may do with it as you please. Do you want to be happy? Here is the secret: Smile and be happy. It is that simple. There is nothing you have to do! You can only receive from life that which you give to life! So, be happy! Smile. Be successful! Give of your abundance. Live your dreams! Dream bigger! Plan your work and work your plan. So what if you fall short! If you aim for the moon and miss, you still land among the stars! Be a star!


I decided to do just that in my own life. I took the risk and believed I was worth it. I got out there and I'm still out there. I am having the time of my life. No more, "I wish I'd done this" or "I wish I'd done that." I'm doing it. I'm being it. I untied the life-line--that which I erroneously held as my "needs" and cast off and set sail.


Dark, threatening skies loomed at times, close calls against rocky shoals, surging swells and thunderous storms came and went. That is true still, but (and what comes after but is the most important part of any statement) also there are billowing sails full of wind to travel onward, puffy white clouds to enchant and inspire, warm gentle winds to caress and encourage, clear blue water to heal and refresh, breath-taking sunrises and sunsets to touch the soul, and, Oh! The stars! The stars of anticipated desire and destination!


How dare I? Who do I think I am? Just what makes me think I am so special? I'll tell you what it was…. I listened finally. I listened to that still small voice. You know, the one that kept coming back time and time again. The one that made me smile. The one that made me close my eyes and imagine. The one that gave me hope. The one that reminded me of my dream. The one that said, "The world is your oyster!" I took that priceless moment and I listened.


Are you listening now? Do you have a dream? Think. Think hard. Who was it you wanted to be? What did you really want to do with your life? What kind of person did you want to be? What kind of personality did you want to have? What talents do you possess? Which ones did you yearn to develop? What do you like about yourself? What is it that other people see in you? What is it they seek from you? That is who you really are. That is who you can become. Those are your gifts. Those are your dreams.


Time to take off the mask. Really. Haven't you been wearing it long enough? There is nothing to fear but fear itself. It comes in basically two forms, as I've learned it. Fear of defilement and fear of insufficient love. Defilement? Yes, fear of being contaminated, manipulated, cut-off, cut-out, isolated. That is the fear of being hurt. Then the fear of insufficient love. Really, that is just an extreme version of the fear of defilement.


So let's do a brief analysis, okay? Contaminated? Hmmm. The option is hiding and quarantining ourselves. Not likely to happen whether we're living our dreams or someone else's. Manipulated? Now that's a strong possibility. Why do I say that, you ask? Simply answered, everyone is a salesman…Everyone! They are selling what they think, what they believe, and what they think you should think. So, again, whether you are or are not living your dream, you will be dealing with manipulation. Cut-off, cut-out, isolated. Heck, you've already done that to yourself--you've cut yourself off from, out from and isolated from the very essence of who you want to be. Two steps forward and one step back and you've made a little progress…. You'll only get closer by beginning.


The fear of insufficiency. Insufficiency of love. I suggest that first one must love oneself and only then can they give and receive love from others. If you haven't yet been kind enough, caring enough, loving enough of yourself to allow yourself to follow your dreams, then truly you are living an illusion of insufficiency. The illusion is that the love and the sufficiency doesn't begin or end out there. The magic is, it begins and ends with you. You have the power and total control to live outside the illusion and with the ultimate truth of sufficiency, abundance and love.


Take off your mask and look in the mirror. Really look. No! Don't turn away. Look. Now keep looking. Look for at least a minute. No glancing away. Hold your own gaze…. Who is that wonderful person in there? Ask. Keep looking. Do this daily. Do it morning and night. That's your very best friend in there. Your friend believes in you even when you don't. It hears all the negative self-talk…You can't, you can't, you can't. And it responds with: Yes, you can. Yes, you can. Yes, you can. And your best friend will keep telling you that, even when you don't want to hear. Look again. There you are.


Now you've got it. Now you're starting to believe. Hold on to that. Put it in your pocket. Tuck it in your heart. Fill your mind with it. Now get going. Plan your work. Quick…what could you do with this feeling? How could you make today different from the rest. The day is yours! It's all yours! It is your "present" and you've opened it. Now, what is it? What difference can you make in your own world today?


Is it a smile for someone sad? Is it a visit with someone lonely? Is it a stop for donuts on the way for the team? Is it a romantic phone call over lunch with your spouse? Is it a poem that's been drifting through your thoughts? Signing up for a class you'd like to take? Volunteering at school? The hospital? The retirement home? Talking with a teen? Helping out a friend? Playing a game with the family? Reading your favorite book? Setting some new goals? Joining a group? A memory to share? A story to tell? A lullaby or bedtime story? Taking time for yourself to think? To exercise? To meditate? To pray? To reflect? To journal?


You decide what difference believing in yourself will make. You decide who you are, what you want to do and who you can become. You create it. There is no insufficiency. When you love yourself, you make all the difference in your world. And when you make a difference, that is called serving. How easy was that! You believed in yourself. You loved yourself. You made a difference in your own world, and consequently, you have made a difference in the world and have served others.


Serving is the by-product of love. It is love's synergy in action. Like a bumblebee doing the work of pollinating flowers as it feeds on their nectar. Believing is the nectar of love. Drink of this nectar and your cup will overflow. You will love, you will make a difference, you will serve. Take time to listen to that voice, "Yes, you can. Yes, you can. Yes, you can." You really can!


"Until one is committed, there is hesitancy, the chance to draw back, always ineffectiveness. Concerning all acts of initiative (and creation) there is one elementary truth, the ignorance of which kills countless ideas and splendid plans: that the moment one definitely commits oneself, then Providence moves too. All sorts of things occur to help one that would never otherwise have occurred. A whole stream of events issues from the decision, raising in one's favor all manner of unforeseen incidents and meetings and material assistance, which no man could have dreamed would have come his way."


by William H. Murray (from his book "The Scottish Himalayan Expedition"):


And one of Goethe's couplets:


"Whatever you can do, or dream you can, begin it. Boldness has genius, power, and magic in it."

The double minded man

“A double minded man is unstable in all his ways,” wrote the ancient apostle James (KJV, James 1:8). When part of us wants one thing and another part of us wants something else, we become double minded. And, like James taught, when we are double minded, it is nearly impossible to achieve our goals—we’re unstable.


This is perhaps the single most significant obstacle individuals encounter on the path to creating goals and realizing dreams.


I often use this physical description to explain the dilemma: Let’s say that I live in Kansas and I want to go on vacation—to both New York City and Los Angeles. I can’t decide which one (and I can’t take two vacations)! Part of me really wants to drive east to New York, while part of me wants to drive west to LA. These two destinations are on opposite ends of the United States. I’m sitting in my car, trying to decide. I know that I can go to only one city at a time, so I must pick one. I can’t vacillate between locations and expect to arrive at any destination; if I started driving, I could literally spend hours going around in circles and never get anywhere.


The same thing can happen to us when we set goals. Obviously, if we’ve set a goal, a part of us must want the thing we’re fervently attempting to manifest. But other parts of our subconscious selves may not agree with the conscious plans we’ve set. In order to complete the creation process, we must discover those subconscious parts, overcome them, and then be single-minded in our goals.


Here are a few examples. Let’s say I want to make more money. Let’s also say that I come from a lower income family. Growing up, my family spent a lot of time relaying non-verbal messages that having money is bad—people who have a lot of money are selfish and greedy, I learned. This means, that I might even be bad for seeking after money. I’ve become conflicted. Part of me wants to make money; but part of me is afraid that if I do, I may not be loved or accepted by my family. Even though making more money is a great goal and would benefit my current family—and I have the ability to accomplish the goal—if I don’t overcome my feelings about money, I’ll never be able to take the action needed to realize my dream.


Here’s another example. Let’s say that part of me wants to lose weight. But part of me feels safe when I am heavier. I feel protected and secure when I eat foods that don’t support my weight loss. In this situation, my goal to lose weight is in direct opposition to the parts of me that use food for comfort and stress relief. I can never lose weight if part of me continues to think that food is the best way to find emotional relief.


These subconscious feelings are hard to admit—and sometimes hard to discover.


I’ve learned, however, that the intentions of our hearts eventually manifest themselves, regardless of our conscious efforts. This truth can be observed in every universal aspect, including in the life of a pigeon. Did you know that pigeons can be taken from their home nests and placed half way around the world from their birth environment and, through their simple, instinctive desire to return home (one that is programmed within them), they will eventually come back to their original nests.


Our intentions are powerful! If we want something other than what we deeply intend within our hearts, we will find ourselves conflicted. If we want to find approval from our families more than we want to change our financial habits, we’ll never reach the goal of making more money. If we want to receive comfort from food more than we want to lose weight, we’ll never drop the pounds we’d like to.


As you work to achieve your goals, take some time to perform some self-exploration. Ask yourself these questions:


Am I double minded about my dreams?


Is part of me afraid to get what I want?


When I listen to my heart, what do I hear myself say I want?


Are these answers conflicting?


If so, how can they be resolved?

Depression and suicide someone intervene before it gets that bad

Depending on how depression impacts a person it is possible that depression can lead to thoughts of suicide and depending on the magnitude of the depression sometimes those thoughts can lead a person to actually commit suicide.


What keeps us from noticing the signs and from intervening before it gets to that level? Do we simply not recognize the signs are do we choose to ignore them out of ignorance?


For many suffering with depression feel as if it is a relief, the final end for those who have struggled mightily with the demons of depression. However, too often the loved ones and family members of those who are suffering most deeply with depression believe incorrectly that there is simply no way that suicide will be the end result.


This fallacy has led to many a broken family as suicide and depression go hand in hand far too often. We are quite incapable as families and friends of those suffering with depression to “treat” the condition. It is vital that you help the person suffering by getting them to a professional who can help. Find a professional that will listen and don’t stop advocating for your loved one until you get the help they need.


There is no need in trying to really understand the depths of depression and the demons that it brings unless you have battled the war yourself.


Too often we brush off comments that begin to sound darker and darker thinking to ourselves “life just isn’t all that bad... there’s no way my friend or loved one would actually go through with it... they can shake it off”.


Danger, danger... you must not think in this manner. Thoughts of and thinly veiled comments of suicide are not a call for attention, they are a cry for help, they are a cry that should ring through your soul and you should not rest until you have helped your loved one get the help the so desperately need. Do not brush it off…take it seriously…and get moving... intervene now.


It is important to dispel the myth that if a person talks about suicide that they will not make a suicide attempt.


Wrong.


In fact speaking of this heinous act is how you can know that the depression has actually reached the depths of the pit. If you hear these comments, stop whatever you are doing and get professional help for your loved one. This is not a comment that you can ignore. It is simply too serious.


The apathy and hopelessness brought on by the depression can cause someone not to even be able to think rationally anymore. They probably are not even able to form a thought that says “I am going to kill myself because I have nothing to live for”, they generally feel so much apathy about life itself that suicide seems a sweet relief.


Those suffering with depression are at an even higher risk for suicide if they are using alcohol and drugs to numb the pain of depression. Suicide does not distinguish between classes of people; it does not just target the rich or the poor. Suicide crosses all social boundaries.


Often times we incorrectly assume that if we talk about suicide with a friend or loved one who is suffering from depression that we will give them that push they need, or we will somehow inadvertently give them “permission” to commit suicide. Again, this is a myth. Often talking about it helps to relieve some of the pressure and anxiety of keeping it hidden.


Another very common myth is that a suicide attempt is a method to get attention.


Good grief!


How many years is it going to take for us to realize this is wrong! Incorrect! No where close to the truth!


Any action taken to end one’s life is serious. While some believe that if someone attempts suicide using a method they know will ultimately fail, is just a call for help and not really all that serious. Regardless…hear this…any suicide attempt must be taken seriously and you must do whatever it takes to get help from a professional.


Thoughts and feelings that lead someone to make an attempt at suicide do not go away quickly. If the attempt is survived, do not just think everything is ok with the world. It’s not. Professionals must intervene and help to provide ongoing treatment in order to help work through what brought on the attempt or near attempt in the first place.


Depression and suicide often go hand in hand. Regardless of what you believe personally those suffering with depression need help and they need help now! Do not delay.


Help to find the professional assistance needed in order to deal with the dark depression threatening to engulf your friend or loved one.

Clock screensavers - time never stops

This article is about Clock screensavers and their message to us that - Time Never Stops. On the Internet, Clock Screensavers have been newly introduced. In these screensavers, there is a background video in flash of nature and a giant Clock ticking on it. The moving hand of clock never stops and that gives us the message about life. Let us see what?


Screensavers were earlier used to protect the screens of computers. Now with latest technology, that is no more required. People still download screensavers in large quantities and enjoy watching them on the desktop. A beautiful visual of the screensaver can take us away from our daily stresses and relax our mind by showing us waterfalls, trees, rivers, ocean and clouds in the sky. Birds look equally enchanting, and if you watch a butterfly that can mesmerize you on your desktop. Screensavers with great visual are very effective in removing stress. Try them whenever you feel stressed or under tension.


Clock screensavers combine a ticking clock on a screensaver. When you look at the scenes with the clock hand-moving non-stop on the screensaver the message is very poignant. Time never stops. Since billions of years, the only thing that has always gone ahead and never turned back is time. Time always moves forward and the clock never turns back. A clock screensaver on the screen reminds us about how valuable this time is. We are all given short lives. Every second counts. Utilizing time to do something good is the best way to spend time. Use time to achieve your goals and use time to help others.


A majority of us take time for granted. We always believe that we have enough time left to do so many incomplete jobs. But that is not so. We don’t know how much time is allotted to us by nature. We don’t know when we shall go away to the great beyond. A clock screensaver tells us not to delay saying a Thank You or apologizing. Not to delay helping anyone in need. Who knows tomorrow may never come for us. This is the message of Clock screensavers.

Spirituality information - journey in the fields of forever part 94

“I will go now,” he said as he snapped to attention. “Much to be done. Duty calls and all that. It was wonderful seeing you again, Gideon. And Marla, I still wish to take you away and make you my princess. Are you sure you ... ?”


Marla interrupted,“Not this time, Kamal. But keep trying; I like it.”


“I bid you good evening, John,” he said. Then he looked at Pandayji and continued, “It was good to see you, Pandayji. Let us get together in Trivandrum soon. There is a quaint tavern across from the main market. I’ll meet you there.”


He bowed to Marla, took her hand, kissed it gently, turned to Gideon, saluted and with a flourish, walked straight out with his companions following close behind. It took a few seconds for all that had just happened to sink in. I looked around and saw the few remaining patrons of the restaurant sitting quietly, enjoying their meals as if nothing had happened. I glanced at Pandayji who sat smiling, as if such occurrences were commonplace. I looked at Gideon and asked,“What’s the meaning of all that?”


“Meaning? How you love to analyze. Does everything have to have an obvious meaning?” he countered.


“Well, yes,” I replied, “I think so.”


“Sometimes meanings are not apparent for along time,” he said. “Of course, it’s the tendency of some people to try to read all sorts of interpretations into every event. There are times, my dear John, when it’s best to enjoy or endure an event for its own sake. A friend of mine, Sigmund, once had a discussion with Marla and me about just such an occurrence. The conclusion was, sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.”


“So all this brouhaha was just for nothing? Just a lot of smoke and no fire?”


“No,” he replied emphatically, “it was not a lot of noise, not without substance. He was an old, loyal friend just visiting in his own way. That, in itself, was very touching. Do you have to totally analyze everything you do, John? When you eat an apple, do you weigh it, check its color and the texture of its skin? Do you have it sent to a lab for an analysis of nutrients? Sometimes an apple is just an apple. Enjoy it. Kamal and I go way back. He always had an eye for Marla and she could play the flirt, too, when she felt like it. But he’s been doing a wonderful work. Many have been helped and given a new lease on life because the Terror of Trivandrum intervened. Don’t judge him by the way he looks or how he speaks. People tend to judge by appearances. Learn, as Jesus said, to judge not by appearances.”

Anxiety disorder symptoms

Worry, fear, and anxiety are a normal part of our life. Have you experienced feeling anxious before taking an exam and later find out that you got a higher result more than what you’ve expected? Or, feeling anxious for a job interview and ended up getting hired, or feeling frightened walking down an alley where bad things often happened? Normal anxiety helps us cope in any stressful situation, it also keeps us watchful.


Mental health professional are not concerned with normal anxiety. But, if your anxiety suddenly occur without apparent reason and lasts for weeks to months and happens in most days than not, that is another issue. If anxiety persists in most days than not, and takes longer than six months, it has become an immobilizing disorder.


An anxiety disorder is a recurring and excessive anxiety and worry about events or activities without logical reasons at all lasting for more than six moths and it is interfering with everyday activities, such as going to work, and socializing. A person experiencing anxiety condition finds it difficult to control the feelings of worry and fear. The thing about people with anxiety disorder is that they actually know that what they think of feel is not real and that they are just made-up.


The common anxiety disorders are Panic Disorder, Social Phobia, Agoraphobia, Specific Phobia, Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder, Generalized Anxiety Disorder, Separation Anxiety, Post-traumatic Stress Disorder, and Selective Mutism.


A person with anxiety condition may suffer different anxiety disorder symptoms. And because no two individuals are the same, the anxiety disorder symptoms may vary from one person to the other.


The physical symptoms of anxiety disorder are cause by brain sending messages to parts of the body to prepare for the flight-to-fight response. The lungs, heart, and other parts of the body work faster and the brain releases stress hormones, including adrenaline, and that explains that physical symptoms.


Anxiety disorder symptoms may experience physically can include but not limited to:


Abdominal discomfort


Diarrhea


Dry mouth


Rapid heartbeat or palpitations


Tightness or pain in chest


Shortness of breath


Dizziness


Frequent urination


Difficulty swallowing


Anxiety disorder symptoms may experience psychologically can include:


Insomnia


Irritability


Inability to concentrate


Fear of going crazy or dying
