Demand more! Scream out if you must, but let your anxiety know you are
making a firm request that you want to experience the very worst it can throw
at you! The request for more is the most empowering statement you make when
in the midst of a full-blown panic attack. It sends a clear and strong statement
that behind it all you were calling fears bluff, you are still really in control and
always have been. You were just observing up until this moment. Like the roller
coaster ride you were allowing yourself to feel the experience, the sensations of
fear. You were a fully paid-up and willing participant, not a victim. Now you are
consciously moving towards the fear, requesting that it shows you more of these
unusual bodily sensations you are going through.
Here are some mantra you may use:
“I feel anxious but now show me how it feels like to be really, really anxious.”
“Show me how it feels like if my throat and chest feel even tighter.”
“I can feel a real knot in my stomach but I wonder what it would be like if it
were much tighter, can’t you make it tighter? Is that the most you can offer?”
“I notice all kinds of fearful thoughts circling round my mind -make them faster,
aren’t there any more scary ones?”
This request for more is a request fear cannot deliver. You are voluntarily
moving in the same direction of the sensations and giving the fear no
momentum to pull on to create the mental struggle and anxiety. This knocks
anxiety right on the head as there is no longer any fuel to drive the campaign of
terror. The fuse that was dangerously close to exploding into a full-blown panic
attack is extinguished. What is more is that this action calls fears b luff, in that
the fear driving the whole experience reveals the truth of the situation—there
never really was anything to fear in the first place. The threat was a hoax. The
panic attack was a dud, there never was a real tangible threat.
