Article: Exposure therapy is a common treatment for social anxiety. It helps relieve social anxiety by encouraging you to face your fears and reduce your fearful or anxious reaction to them. You start with things that make you feel just a little anxious, and work up to sources of high anxiety. You may feel comfortable trying this on your own, but if not, you can seek out a therapist to help you with this treatment.  Experts have several theories on why exposure treatment works, but most agree that it weakens your "conditioned response" to the things that make you anxious. In other words, it retrains your brain to react differently to those things.  If your anxiety is severe enough to cause panic attacks or intense fear, you should consider seeking professional treatment first. While exposure therapy is highly successful, it can make fears and anxieties worse if not done correctly. The activities should cause varying levels of anxiety. This means that you will want to balance some activities that cause mild stress with other activities that cause more significant levels of anxiety. This list will help you identify which type of activities make you feel most anxious and help you prioritize which activities you'll want to reduce your anxiety. Identify which activity is the least anxiety-provoking for you and mark it as one. Continue to number each activity in increasing severity. You can determine how anxiety-provoking each activity is to you by rating them on a 100 point scale. Ask yourself, “On a scale of 1-100, how much anxiety does this activity cause me?” The activities that are higher on the scale will be higher on the list. Use your imagination to pretend that you are fully engaged in the activity. Visualize each step in the process.  For example, if you’ve been invited to a party where you think you will embarrass yourself, this might be a great activity to rehearse.  You could start by visualizing that you are arriving to the location. Next you can visualize walking up the driveway and knocking on the door. Imagine that you are sitting down next to an attractive person. Visualize yourself talking to the person, laughing, and both of you enjoying the conversation. See yourself having a drink or eating without soiling your clothing. Continue to visualize each step of the anxiety-provoking event.   As you mentally rehearse the event, try to imagine the details in your mind’s eye. Pretend that you’ve teleported yourself there so that you can see all of the vivid details of your surroundings. Also, incorporate your other senses during the rehearsal. This will help it to feel more real. After you’ve finished mentally rehearsing the activity, it’s time to practice it in real life. Complete each step exactly the way that you imagined it. You will probably still feel some anxiety even after mentally rehearsing the event, but tell yourself “It’s okay that I’m anxious. I’m going to do this anyway.” Continue to practice this activity until the anxiety that is currently associated with the event subsides. Continue to expose yourself to the activities on your list. Be sure to move in order from the least anxiety-provoking activity to the most anxiety-provoking situation. This is important because if you start with activities that cause severe anxiety, it may be too overwhelming for you. Professional therapists may sometimes recommend a "flooding" approach to exposure therapy, where you immediately face your most anxiety-provoking events. This approach does work, but because it is often extremely uncomfortable for the person, most therapists do not use it. It is not recommended that you use the "flooding" technique at home.

Article: Your kit should include food and water for a couple days, a radio, batteries, first aid supplies, and a flashlight. Your kit will not only provide you with items you may need during and after a tsunami event, but it will give you piece of mind while you are evacuating. Perhaps the most important part of preparing for a tsunami is creating evacuation routes to high points inland. By plotting several different evacuation routes, you'll limit the amount of time you may have to waste figuring out where to go during a tsunami. Create plans that will take you from:  Work to a safe zone. Home to a safe zone. Likely places you may be in your community to a safe zone. Take the time to drive or walk the route several times in advance. Look for alternative ways to cross rivers, streets, or get around major buildings. By familiarizing yourself with your evacuation route, you'll be much more likely to be able to avoid dangers like downed power lines or damaged bridges. A contact plan will let you know how and when to communicate with friends or family after you have evacuated. You should also include a place to meet friends and family after authorities have signaled an all clear.  Choose a location that is easily accessible and in a safety zone. Possible locations include a friend's house, a public park, or a landmark. Make sure you include a timeline for communication in your plan. For example, have a first contact time (maybe 1 to 3 hours after the event), a second contact point (6 to 12 hours after), and a third contact point (a day after the event).
