By Robert Mantell, Ph.D., C.M.Ht. I believe the brain has a positive intent for everything it does —
everything — including causing a person to experience chronic and
debilitating forms of anxiety such as phobias, panic attacks,
post-traumatic stress, agoraphobia, social phobia, and OCD. Thus, the positive purpose for the presence of the various expressions
of anxiety in a person’s life is to act as a kind of protective
barrier, if you will, from the kinds of situations, circumstances,
people or things the brain greatly fears will lead to pain, based on
past experience.Causes of Panic Attacks

My experience is that for, oh, 70 to 80% of the people,
when the beliefs go away, they never come back. So, there’s no thinking
about it, there’s no working on it. When you get rid of the belief ‘I’m
not good enough’ and, or whatever the beliefs happen to be, and all the
beliefs that cause the given problem, the problem goes away, and the
beliefs don’t come back.

stress levels soaring and cause you misery for a long time.
