From Katharina Star, your Guide to Panic Disorder
If you have been diagnosed with panic disorder, you may feel that others can't understand what you are experiencing. You may even be keeping it a secret, out of fear of how others may judge you if they knew about your condition. Panic disorder can affect your life in many ways, including your personal and professional relationships, self-esteem and overall quality of life. However, it is possible to cope with panic disorder and live the life you desire. The following articles offer tips for living with panic disorder, panic attacks, and agoraphobia.

Improve Your Self-Esteem
Self-esteem describes the way in which we perceive ourselves. People with high self-esteem are often more fulfilled in life, viewing themselves as worthwhile and deserving of love and respect. On the other hand, people with low self-esteem are typically less satisfied and lack self-acceptance. Low self-esteem is also associated with numerous physical and mental health conditions, including anxiety and depression. It also tends to be a problem for people with panic disorder. Your self-esteem can be lowered if you feel embarrassed about your symptoms or are prone to feelings of inadequacy. Fortunately, self-esteem can be improved upon. Learn 4 tips for boosting your self-esteem.

Practice Forgiveness
Many people become emotionally charged by the idea of forgiveness. Some people feel that forgiveness condones bad behaviors. Others may feel so much hurt and anger that they find it to difficult to forgive. However, forgiveness can actually be beneficial to your own health and wellness. It can help you release many pent up emotions that are contributing to your symptoms of panic and anxiety. Forgiveness can ultimately set you free of the pain of your past.

Reduce Your Stress
Stress is often accompanied by feelings of anxiety. It has also been known to contribute to sleep disturbances, poor mood, and physical health problems. Stress can be especially harmful to people who are also dealing with an anxiety disorder, as it may worsen symptoms. Despite the heightened anxiety that comes along with stress, there are ways to control these feelings. Once you have become aware of the grip that stress has on your life, you can take action towards learning to manage it. Find out more on ways to reduce your stress.

Reach Your Goals
Most people have numerous goals that they hope to accomplish. These goals are often spread across a variety of areas, including career, health and relationships. However, for those who have panic disorder, it may at times feel as though the struggle with symptoms and anxiety get in the way of achieving those goals. Don't let panic be a roadblock to your success. Learn some simple tips to accomplishing your goals.
