Applied Positive Psychology Is About Killing The Anxiety Bug

By Gregory Myers


These days, there are so many reasons as to why people are struggling with health issues. Whether this is physical or mental. Reasons can range from social media to crime and much more. The sad part about this all is that it strongly affects the youth, and as students, their main priority should be education. So it's clear why the need for applied positive psychology is dire.

If you are a student in college, there are a few things that you can do to help ease certain issues. The main one being anxiety. A common habit that the youth have is to eat at unbalanced periods. Because exam and assignment deadlines are becoming a bit much, they tend to rather nibble on whatever is in-front of them instead of eating a full and healthy meal. By changing what you consume, you will immediately see a change in how you feel.

Social media is the biggest attraction and these days, if you don't have it, it is easy to look down on you. The internet allows for many access points and for students specifically, you can study and also keep in touch with everyone at the same time. The downfall to this is that when you spend too much time on it, you can easily become zombie-like and depending on what you see online, you can easily start to feel a sense of depression.

Sometimes when you are feeling like you are going to have a panic attack because of something that you need to do or say, it is recommended to just blurt it out. It is similar to writing a letter that relieves you from what you are feeling. And as in these cases, once it is done, you immediately feel a lot better and the weight is lifted.

Breathing exercises are common to find among people who are paranoid or anxious all the time. This action helps you to feel better and keep it together at times when you feel overwhelmed. If you go to college, you will easily find other groups that practise the same art closer to exams or deadlines. If your institute has a medical section or a therapist on site, you may want to also ask them for advice.

The other option is to speak to your doctor. Most people take this route when everything else that they tried doesn't work. It is not a bad step however, it means that they will expect you to see a psychologist. And when this happens, you may have to be on some type of treatment, which isn't great if you are not an extreme case.

Sometimes, it may feel as though it is an extreme case but it really isn't. It is important to follow the basic steps first and if they work, it means that you can control it. Try this before heading to the GP.

It is not always recommended to be on medication and your therapist will also tell you this. Sometimes, you just need to accept it and once this is done, you will find ways to beat it. A good note to remember is that such conditions is not a way of life and there is always a way to solve it.
