Hi guys,

so over the past few weeks I've been paying real close attention to my thoughts and emotions and how my anxiety is affected by it and come to realize the cause of my anxiety. My anxiety is health realted more so centered around my heat beat. If it's fast I start to panic although I know the heart goes up and down throughout the day. Sometimes my heartbeat isnt fast but it is hard and forceful and that also scares me. I'm a googler and that also causes anxiety. Recently I've been having panic  attacks that stem from me thinking about the panic attack and how horrible they feel and although I know not to fear them, I don't want them to happen and they often times always do the more my mind thinks abut them. I don't intentionally think about them, the thought randomly pops up in my head and I start to fight the thought which increases the anxiety and eventually leads to a panic attack. Socially, I am not confident and think that people will think i'm ugly weird or a bevy of negative things. These are all the cause of my anxiety and panic but I don't know how to turn these thoughts and patterns around to decrease my anxiety.

Knowing the root of my anxiety is a start but what can I do now to overcome my anxiety and panic??

Have you ever been apart of a therapist plan for your anxiety, as they are really good in helping you overcome anxiety, as long as you are aware of the cause. They have many different ways to help like exposure therapy or cognitive behavioural therapy. Once you are sure you have a possible root it is best to get in touch with a doctor or local gp/walk in docs to talk about arranging an appointment with a physiologist for an assement and then a specialised one for you

Hope this helps if you don't like to confront doctors there are plenty of resources online and books which are available that tell you the same thing.
