Evolving Self Confidence

Generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), social anxiety disorder (social phobia), post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), simple and complex phobias, severe depression... Not diseases, disorders or mental illness, anxiety and depression problems involve natural survival instincts common to us all - normal self-protective thoughts, feelings and behaviours that become over-sensitive and intensified, grossly exaggerated and out of control. They develop from experiencing too many (or too severe) stressful, negative life issues and events... ones that make us feel weak and vulnerable. In essence, these problems come from our subconscious trying to protect us when life has made us afraid. And they start, strengthen and grow from our mind's attempts to explain and resolve the intangible fear we feel inside.
