There's some very interesting research going on that links your natural 'circadian rhythm', or indeed an unnatural one! to anxiety.

No - not annoying - FUN!
Adrenaline junkies go jumping out of aeroplanes or from the top of skyscrapers to get the same response! They're addicted to feeling it, just like we're addicted to...
When I help people I know with phobias, I always break the news first that they're actually ADDICTED to the pleasure, or release, obtained by escaping from the fear and getting back to a safe place....
It's true. Hi Gypsy,
We can't cocoon ourselves and others from risk.
By using the risk argument to reinforce the excuse for not driving it just builds a home for the phobia. Not just any home...
By turning round and going back what you do is accidentally reinforce the panic situation by 'negative reinforcement'.
The therapist is right. You need to relax through the attack, at least until...
OP - If you stay in and don't go out you might not see an injured person who needs your help.
They could die, just because you stayed at home. Why is that a risk you are prepared to take?
Phobias, on their best day, are proper irrational fears. If you have a phobia of baked beans, or a phobia of clowns, or a phobia of curtains - that's a proper phobia. A phobia with balls.
A fear...
It can be, but being sandwiched by two working farms can be less peaceful than you'd think. I quite like being close to nature though.
Here's one of our cows from earlier in the year I spotted...
Hi and welcome.
You're not alone. Most of the people here have been through it in one form or another.
You're seeing someone. That's good. They will have explained all about anxiety I should...
It'll be that déjà vu, all over again.
If I can get mobile tyre service where I am I'm sure that a little place like California will have it.
It's like middle-of-nowhere here. The nearest cow is about 4 feet from me as I type this
I'd go to Costco if I were you. They do Michelin and Bridgestone here - decent makes and are cheaper than the other places that do the same.
I got my last two done by a small local independent...
Costco gets good reviews here for tyres. I'd go there but they don't do my tyre size.
They will be able to advise you there I'm sure, and they'll do a decent tyre at a very good price. Just ask...
In terms of our history there are many sensory inputs that we've evolved to spot very quickly. A snake, a strange pair of eyes glowing out of the dark, sudden movement etc that it made sense to spot...
Do you know if the rims are standard? They could well be different from what the car was shipped with. That's quite common.
Personally I like Michelin. That's my choice given a chance. For a few...
That's probably because you're allowing yourself to dwell on the false memories and not discarding them. That makes a nest for them. And they breed like rabbits
the sensation of remembering something is real. The fact that things pop into your head is real.
The factual accuracy of those things though is not real. the dream itself wasn't real so any...
You think dreams are reality?
(Wasn't meant as an insult!)
But yes memories are not real. You can remember remembering remembering something that didn't happen in the first place. We do it all...
It does provide some fascinating insights into how the brain works.
We know that memory isn't like reality coming back from some immutable recording tape in the mind. Memory is a reconstructive...
Hi, Yes.
Déjà vu is very common in everyone - about 60% of everyone.
It's caused by the difference in speed between some different parts of the brain and when the thoughts and ideas are...
No, it's fairly normal. Absolutely nothing to worry about.
All of the things you've describe fit it perfectly. In the summer it'll happen less because the rubber is softer and gives more. It'll...
When you felt the 'bumpy feeling' doing a u-turn was the weather pretty cold, or colder than usual?
That sounds very much like the tyres skipping slightly. It's nothing to worry about. The wider...
Hi 1Blue,
Do you live near any reasonable-size towns? I bet there is an evening class on car maintenance not very far away from you. If not just visit your local garage or service centre and ask...
If you really want to be free of agoraphobia and panic attacks then just deal with them. It's not difficult, it just requires the will.
The juice of a lemon might be helpful.
Not helpful at all for controlling infection, but helpful providing a chuckle to others thinking of someone stabbing themselves in the leg on purpose with a...
