How does one overcome fear in the mind? I think its called (social anxiety) or something like that.?

Answer 1

Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cognitive_behavioral_therapy worked best for me. I suffered from social anxiety for over 15 years. I've tried meds, individual therapy, and group therapy and studied psychology for 10 years, as a profession, but also with the hope to cure myself.

Depending on your comfort level, you could go to a psychologist that practices CBT and specializes in anxiety disorders, seek a group therapy, or create one. Usually those that do attend the group therapy are a bit more high functioning because as you know, it can be difficult to speak in a group.

Another idea is to see if there are any local research studies being conducted that you could participate in.

The program that finally worked the best for me is this one: http://www.socialanxiety.us/findinghelp.... and I was lucky enough to have a structured behavioral group to go along with it. Sometimes the people that actually attend this program come back home and form groups.

Any questions, let me know ... I can't tell you how much this has improved my life!

Answer 2

1 John 4:18
There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear:
because fear has torment.
He that fears is not made perfect in love.

Do you have any bitterness or unforgiveness or resentment toward any person?

YOU CAN MEDICATE YOURSELF WITH PAXIL OR YOU CAN LISTEN TO THIS AND BE CURED.

Under the principality of bitterness and answering to it are 7 spirits of re-enforcement.
1. Unforgiveness 2. Resentment 3. Retaliation 4. Anger, 5. Hatred
6. Violence and 7. Murder

Once violence erupts, teh final fruit of bitterness is murder. Can be physical murder or murder with the tongue, but from the mind to the heart it is there. When it gets to the heart it will set up residence. We must forgive and not hold grudges. You must give love and receive love. If you don't fear sets in and produces autoimmune diseases and stress-related diseases.

2 timothy 1:7 God has not give us the spirit of fear, but of power, love, and a sound mind. Drugs are a poor substitute for the peace of God.

If you want to ignore God, then you have Prozac, Paxil, Xanax, Klonopin and many more. Don't forget Zoloft that is a really cruel one.

I encourage you to go before God and ask Jesus to reveal to you the strongholds in your life.

Answer 3

I recommend speaking with your neighborhood dope dealer, I MEAN, "doctor", to see if he can prescribe you some dope; I MEAN, "medication".
