Author Tim Clare details his own struggle with anxiety as he explores all possible treatments for panic attacks in his new book, Coward.
May 09, 2022 - 08:07 BST Sharnaz Shahid Experiencing occasional anxiety is a normal part of life, but for someone who suffers an immense amount, it can lead to something more detrimental. Some people will experience panic attacks and an overwhelming amount of feeling tense, nervous and restless.
"I had panic attacks every week and sometimes multiple times a day for several days. I knew that it was something that I didn't write about in my fiction that made my novels. And yet it was the most dominating issue of my life." "I've spoken to some psychologists and neuroscientists about creativity and how we can write to engage with difficult things in our past like traumas and things like that," he shared."How writing can be good for the brain and the changes it has on the brain."Tim, who shares five-year-old Suki with his wife, also looked to discover whether he could pass on his anxiety to his daughter.
He added:"What I do know is when I now encounter people including anxious children. I know exactly how they're feeling. I feel very comfortable talking with children about anxiety, and I don't tell them, 'Don't feel anxious, it's not okay to feel anxious.' I say, 'How are you feeling? I felt like that as well too, I used to get really anxious and again, you know, it's alright to be scared.
