Cycle Of Anxiety Worksheet

Anxiety is an oppressive emotion for people to feel. People with chronic anxiety tend to suffer from cycles of anxiety, panic and avoidance. It is not uncommon for these people to not realize the cycle of anxiety they fall into, nor how the cycle affects them.

In order to learn how to manage anxiety, a client must first understand how they are affected by anxiety. They need to understand their own anxious patterns, so they can learn how to break the patterns and how to cope with their anxious feelings in a healthy way.

A great first start in teaching a client how their anxiety affects them is teaching them about the cycle of anxiety.
