The Panic Switch - Jeffrey L. Hammes (link)
"'In control' is an unreasonable expectation that furthers panic attacks. The desire for such control becomes the basis for the apprehension that many times sets the panic in motion. 'If only I could control this damn fear then I would feel better!' But the wish is unrealistic and never attained until the sufferer gives up all hope for conscious control and by this method settles down the nervous system and returning a feeling of 'control.'"
Freedom From the Known - Jiddu Krishnamurti (link)
"One of the major causes of fear is that we do not want to face ourselves as we are. So, as well as the fears themselves, we have to examine the network of escapes we have developed to rid ourselves of them. If the mind, in which is included the brain, tries to overcome fear, to suppress it, discipline it, control it, translate it into terms of something else, there is friction, there is conflict, and that conflict is a waste of energy."
The Caregiver's Tao Te Ching - William and Nancy Martin (link)
"If we want a situation to change, we must let it remain as it is. If we want people to heal, we must let them be ill. If we want to be strong, we must let ourselves be weak. Resistance keeps us stuck. Acceptance sets us free."
