I need some help with my panic attacks. Is there anyway to stop and overcome panic attacks?

By admin

Yesterday I had one (first time in a while)… I ended up going to the ER when the doctor told me it was "just" a panic attack.

I’m really tired of all of this so is there some way I can stop or overcome my Panic Attacks? I really need some help here… thanks

First of all I must sympathize with you… I’ve had them before and they’re one of the worst experiences a person can go through. So much runs through your mind, and afterwards you seem to no longer live life normally. I’ve tried alternative therapies, breathing exercises, talking with a psychiatrist, but none of that worked for me to stop panic attacks completely.

After searching online, I came across the blog of a panic attack sufferer who managed to control and stop her panic attacks by using a natural technique. Her story was really uplifting, and I tried the technique she detailed in her blog. It’s just like she says in the blog – you see the results quickly, and a normal life no longer seems out of reach to you. Good luck in your recovery, God bless.

Not sure if there is. I used to get them all the time too. It just depends on how much stress you are under. If they do get to the point where you have them like twice a week, i’m sure you could go to the doctor and they could prescribe you with some medication.

It feels like you are going to die. It feels like your heart has stopped, and all you can do is just lay in bed waiting to die. You can’t decide if it is a heart attack or not. Every time you have another panic attacks, you are more afraid of the next one – which leads to another attack. You are not alone, and there are many things you can do to relieve this awful way of life. Read about it, share it with your loved ones, and don’t despair.

Here are 3 “emergency” self-help methods to stop panic attacks, try them out, take this important first step.

1. When a Panic Attack Comes – Listen to Your Thoughts

Take a deep breath and listen to your thoughts. Do you like you are going to die? Validate this idea. Does it make sense? Is there any evidence that you are going to die right now? Remind yourself – your difficulty to breath, your chest pain or back pain and your heart racing – is caused by the panic attacks and nothing else! Write it down on a peace of paper a few times.

Now, replace this feeling with positive ideas. This may seem difficult, but if you challenge your anxious ideas and prove them wrong (hey, another minute has passed and you’re still not dying!), they will fade away. Put on the mental brakes and ignore the scary thoughts.

2. Practice Relaxation Methods

You should devote about 20 minutes for relaxation exercises every day. At least at first. These will reduce the stress that often leads to anxiety and panic attacks.

Go to a quiet room, sit down comfortably and take a deep breath. When you exhale, imagine that all your fear and anxiety leaves your body along with the air from your lungs. You can imagine that these thoughts are a swarm of black little creatures that you are releasing from your body.

Next, lie down and beginning with your toes, tense and relax each muscle with your eyes closed. Tense with inhale, release with exhale. These are proven and guaranteed methods for relaxation for thousands of years. Allow yourself to remain relaxed for 5 more minutes, now you can return to your activities.
