Question 1 (Answer 1)

Nowadays, as the human lifestyle changed and the work style is not the same like our grandfather time. I did some research from the internet. Some of the scientist also take risk to this fact is because the humans pressure is higher and higher until it could harm our human body. It will also cause the bodys biochemical state with extra epinephrine and other adrenal steroids such as hydrocortisone in the bloodstream. Sometimes, worry also induces palpitation and blood pressure in the body with mental manifestations such as fear, worry, heart problem, abnormal blood pressure, temper, gain weight, bad influence, physical disturb, lack of concentration and mentally disturb. Generalized anxiety disorder is characterized by excessive, exaggerated anxiety and worry about everyday life events with no obvious reasons for worry. Below are some guidelines on how to reduce anxiety and worry.

So, the first method can reduce anxiety and stress is spending more time with family because when we are with family to picnic, travel or others activities also can be happy. All the activities also can let us spend our time with family for talk, sharing experience, together for a travel is to increase the relationship between each and other. Family is our medicine beside rather than all the real medicine.

Second method, talking to someone is one of the best ways to overcome your anxiety and worry. Getting together with your relative and friends, even your fellow patrons at some of the coffee shop nearby, and talking about what you are feeling can be helpful. If you can't talk to someone, try writing a letter and blog, visiting an appropriate Internet chat room or share a laugh because if you laugh life seems better.

Question 1 (Answer 1) Next, Exercise is another good way to keep from letting your fears overwhelms you. Sometimes gentle forms of exercise like take a walk, play a game of basketball, ride a bike or yoga can be better than a hard workout at the gym. The point is to exercise because when you do, your body will release endorphins, which contribute to feeling good. Do what works best for you at the moment and dont worry about breaking your normal routine, that change may actually help you.

Forth method, a balanced diet or take food according to the food pyramid is essential to providing your body with the necessary nutrients needed to function optimally. The point is to protect body weight because that is a major influence on health throughout life. Obese people are generally less healthy and are more prone to illnesses such as diabetes, hypertension, heart diseases, gall bladder diseases and arthritis. So, avoid taking in stimulants such as caffeine, or substances such as drugs, alcohol or cigarettes. These stimulants cause your heartbeat to speed up, and may trigger symptoms of your anxiety disorder.

Another, ask for moral support from friends and family who are sympathetic, caring and available to help you in severe condition of mental illness. Do locate people around you who are suffering with anxiety disorder. Try to learn from their and experiences and share your experience. Be positive and optimistic and get courage by listening sorrows of other and evaluate the intensity of your depression. Talk loudly and confidently with people and share your world-view. Help poor and deserving people and make a spiritual contact with Sufi Saints and spend as much time as possible with people who make you feel good and are emotionally helpful and loyal.

Finally, there are five practical methods that can be used to reduce anxiety and worry in a healthy way. In additional by clinical method, take ten minutes and relax to do something that you find relaxing like a hot bath, a video game, a book, anything to make you forget for a few moments about your unconscious feelings. We must practice good consume of food and practise healthy lifestyle than our life will wont be disturb by anxiety and worry. Worry is just appears when we are thinking negatively and anxiety just because we need some rest. However, cant leave family and friends also because they all are the people we can share and discuss our uncomfortable with them.

Appendix

Appendix

The history of the English language really started with the arrival of three Germanic tribes who invaded Britain during the 5th century AD. These tribes, the Angles, the Saxons and the Jutes, crossed the North Sea from what today is Denmark and northern Germany. At that time the inhabitants of Britain spoke a Celtic language. But most of the Celtic speakers were pushed west and north by the invaders - mainly into what is now Wales, Scotland and Ireland. The Angles came from England and their language was called Englisc - from which the words England and English are derived.
