Rapid Anxiety Therapy
I lived with anxiety for years. I know how exhausting it is, and I know it can change.
Anxiety Unplugged is the process I built from everything I learnt getting myself free of it. It’s rapid, it’s practical, and it works.
Anxiety can make your world smaller.
Maybe you’re constantly overthinking. Maybe your mind jumps to the worst-case scenario. Or perhaps anxiety hits you out of nowhere and you don’t even understand why.
You might know logically that you’re okay, but your mind and body don’t seem to have got the message.
The good news is anxiety doesn’t have to keep deciding how you live your life.
I can help you understand what’s happening and start changing the patterns that are keeping the anxiety going.
Fundamentally there is nothing wrong with you.
You are not ill, you are not broken and, more importantly, you are not dying.
Although the symptoms of anxiety are very real and very scary (I know….) what you are really experiencing is a bunch of sensations that in reality cannot harm you.
I’ve been exactly where you are.
If you have read my story you will understand that I had a long battle with anxiety. I tried everything to rid myself of anxiety including numerous visits to my GP, medication, counselling, breathing techniques and finally researching the condition and curing myself. My battle with anxiety inspired me to become a trained therapist who specialises in all anxiety conditions.
I created the Anxiety Unplugged programme based on everything I learnt during my personal battle with anxiety. I have been free from my anxiety habit for years now, and so can you!
What are some signs of anxiety?
How do I know if I suffer from anxiety?
Anxiety can manifest itself in many different ways. You may find that you:

- Become irritable and/or suffer mood swings.
- Experience chest pain and shortness of breath.
- Have an increased heart rate or feel very tense
- Have trouble sleeping or just feeling fatigued.
- Feel increased anxiety the next day after a stressful event.

- Find your breathing becomes shallow and restricted
If you’re nodding along, you’re not alone, and you’re not imagining it.

What does it feel like to have an anxiety attack?
It often comes out of nowhere.
Your heart pounds so hard you’re sure something is badly wrong. You might shake, cry, feel sick or feel like you’re about to pass out. Your breathing goes shallow and you can’t seem to catch it.
And the worst part is the feeling that you can’t escape. That the anxiety is in control of your body and your mind.
I remember that feeling on a long-haul flight, convinced I was going to die in front of everyone. I didn’t. And you won’t either.

Your questions, answered honestly
Open whichever one is on your mind.
Why do people get anxious?
A lot of anxiety is your brain’s survival system doing its job a little too well. It’s designed to keep you safe, so it reacts fast when something feels threatening, whether that threat is real or imagined.
Stress, trauma, exhaustion and feeling overloaded can all turn that system up. Some people experience it more than others, but everyone feels anxious from time to time.
It’s when it doesn’t switch off, or starts to take over your life, that it’s worth getting help. There are also some self-help techniques that can make a difference.
What's the real cause behind anxiety?
When you live with anxiety, the triggers don’t switch off as quickly as they should. Even after the danger has passed, or you realise there was never any danger at all, your body keeps bracing for what might happen next.
Over time, anxiety can become a habit. That’s actually the good news, because habits can be changed.
Can anxiety have physical symptoms?
Yes, very much so. Anxiety floods your body with adrenaline and cortisol, which can cause sweating, shaking, nausea, a racing heart, stomach problems and tightness in your chest.
Those sensations are real. They’re your body’s alarm system going off. It’s always worth checking with your GP, but once other causes are ruled out, understanding what your body is doing takes away a lot of the fear.
Learn more about anxiety and your physical healthWhy do anxiety symptoms jump around?
Because anxiety makes your whole system more sensitive. A small part of your brain called the amygdala works like a smoke alarm.
With generalised anxiety disorder (GAD) it’s set off by worries about the future. With panic disorder it’s set off by the memory of past panic attacks. And after stress or trauma, it can become so sensitive it reacts to things that wouldn’t normally bother you.
So one week it’s your heart, the next it’s your stomach, the next it’s a thought you can’t shake. It’s the same alarm.
Is anxiety permanent?
No, anxiety is not permanent.
Left untreated it can hang around for years, which is why so many people start to believe this is just who they are.
It isn’t. I lived with it for a long time, and I’ve been free of it for over 16 years.
Are drugs effective for treating anxiety disorder?
Medication can be used to assist in certain situations, used in the right way.
But if you took paracetamol for a headache and were still taking it four days later for the same headache, the paracetamol’s not working. The same thing can happen with anxiety medication. It becomes a long-term crutch that treats the effects of anxiety without ever addressing the root cause.
Please never stop or change medication without speaking to your GP first.
Methods for dealing with anxiety
It is important to remember that anxiety, by nature, is temporary.
