Stop Panic Attacks And Anxiety

By Adrian Logan

It is simple to learn how to stop anxiety and panic attacks. But without any guidance, it can be very difficult to conquer on your own, Here are some ways to stop the attacks.

If your chest feel heavy and it is difficult to breath, like there was not enough oxygen in the air, it is the initial symptoms for a panic attack. The two biggest side effects of panic attacks I found out a few weeks later are the perception of breathing difficulties, along with an elevated and even painful heart rate

* If you want to stop these panic attack, you need to realize that these attacks are nothing more and nothing less than your body reacting to stress in your life, which activates the biological fight-or-flight reaction.There is no physical cause and it will not pose any danger to you. These episodes do not harm your body.

* You might not even realize at first that you're having a panic episode. You might think you're having a heart attack, or your lungs aren't working properly, or you are sick, but all of these feelings are physical manifestations of problems that are actually entirely internal. Tell yourself that you are fine, these attacks don't kill anyone, and that this attack will pass, will help you get through your next episode.

* Next you should try to find out the cause. Ask yourself these questions. Did you have panic episodes like this a year ago? What about six months ago? What changed? If you can't think of any significant, stressful differences in your life, think back a month at a time. Shortlist a list of possibilities. It could be a combination of all those small possibilities.

* Your panic attacks might not be even caused by extremely recent concerns - they might be resulting from an elevation of problems or anxiety that had been building up over months or years and finally reached "critical mass", or they might be symptoms of a slowly-growing mental affliction, like generalized anxiety disorder or depression, that your body was not able to sustain anymore without going "overboard."

* The final step is determining whether or not you can cure your own panic attacks. The key for self-treatment is being convinced that what you're experiencing, are, indeed, panic attacks, and not something seriously wrong with your body. I personally required a couple of doctor's examinations before I believed that. That second visit marked the day of the last severe attack I've ever had.

Imagine yourself feeling happy and relax. It is possible. Look below to find out how. - 30437
