Test Anxiety as an Enemy: A Failed Strategy
Agenda
QUESTION 1: What is the fundamental problem with the strategy of fighting anxiety to try to eliminate it?
That it is a very slow strategy that takes too long to give results
That only works if combined with the right medication
That the fighting strategy itself is not the solution, but is actually the problem itself
That it is only effective for milder cases of anxiety and not for chronic ones
QUESTION 2: When you decide to treat anxiety as your enemy, what else also becomes an enemy, according to the text?
Your own feelings, memories, personal history and the sensations of your body
Only the recurring negative thoughts, but not the feelings
People and places that remind you of anxiety or trigger it
Only physical sensations, such as a rapid pulse, but not memories
QUESTION 3: What does the quicksand metaphor teach us about combating anxiety?
That fighting is the only valid instinct and the best option to survive
That you can only get out of anxiety with the help of other people
That moving quickly and forcefully is the best way to avoid sinking
That the more you fight and struggle against anxious thoughts and feelings, the deeper you sink into them
QUESTION 4: What is the "high cost of avoidance" mentioned as a consequence of fighting anxiety?
The economic cost of different therapies and medications
Ending up living a half-life, limited by the fear of feeling anxious, avoiding people and places

To overwork and the constant search for perfection
To sleep excessively so as not to have to face the reality of everyday life
To social media and digital entertainment compulsively
