Hi
I’d like to give some solid advice to you about panic attacks, and to the others here too advocating all kinds of methods!! There are many dead ends you can go down tryin to deal with this problem. I have a history of them and now I have dealt with them.
When a person has a panic attack they are frozen in fear. This is not cowardice. Panic attacks become a private hidden secret inner prison that destroys a person’s life and self-esteem. A person tries so hard to hide it even from him/herself. Panic attacks come on like a heart attack without a warning. It is a very similar feeling and hard to detect which makes it even scarier. The chest tightens, there is no way to handle the fear factor, the feeling that is paralyzing and comes from out of nowhere. Physical discomfort like a rapid heartbeat, sweating, trembling, hot flashes and trouble swallowing regularly accompany the attacks. Panic attacks usually peak within ten minutes but can last 30 minutes. Sometimes panic attacks can last as long as a day. Many feel very tired and worn out after the attack subsides.
Learning how to stop panic attacks is a priority for the majority of those who have ever experienced them. This is because panic attacks are emotionally, mentally and physically draining. Some have gone so far as to describe panic attacks as emotional nightmares.
Although a doctor is a good port of call first in case there is some health-cause, medications do not always alleviate the panic attacks, especially long term, and those prescribed with anti-psychotic medication are on the road to further problems resulting from the consistent use of chemicals that eventually have a permanent negative effect on the brain.I am not a doctor or a professional person, but I am a person that lived with panic attacks and have overcome them. I’ve had to read information and misinformation from sources that proscribe to know about panic attacks but they don’t. People give so many varied points of view on how one should deal with them. Persons that have panic attacks not only have to deal with the panic attacks, they have to deal with people who have a lack of understanding and arguments at the same time.
There are now simple techniques you can learn to help you stop panic attacks quickly and easily and eventually cure panic attacks completely. These techniques have been tested and proven through research and actual application to stop panic attack quickly and effectively.
I’ve included a link if anybody wants to really get to know more about these techniques and how to stop the panic attacks completely and for good. I’ve been there so I wish all those on the search the best, and I offer lots of optimism because this affliction can be overcome.
Good Luck

While medication is an effective way to control anxiety or panic attacks, other methods sometimes work for some people, either in concert with medication or alone.
Some non-medication treatments are cognitive behavior therapy, hypnosis, breathing exercises, yoga, acupressure/acupuncture, desensitization therapy, etc. The root seems to be to learn to reconstruct your thoughts to overcome fear.
There are books on the subject which are helpful, and listings online under “panic attacks,” including WebMD.com (Panic attack treatment and prevention).
Give yourself alternatives, do some reading, and good luck!

I have read that panic attacks don’t respond to therapy or cognitive behaviorism, because they originate in the amygdala and not the cerebral cortex. Therefore, you’re limited to trying to shorten them as much as possible.
One way is to use up the adrenaline in your system by exercising until you feel calmer. Most people lie down, and this is counterproductive.
Another is by trying to meditate, but this works only if you are good enough at it to block out your physical symptoms. This is hard for most people.
Realizing that they are a ‘false alarm’ helps keep you mentally calm.

I’ve had them on and off for many years. I have never told a doctor about it. I try to breathe slowly as well as actively pursue an activity which will get my mind on something other than myself. That almost always stops the attacks. I still get a bout of them every few months, and it IS difficult and scary, but I also intellectually know that they will pass and more quickly if I do what I stated above. Good Luck

There are good treatments to deal with panic attacks that are available outside of a doctor’s office. I look at the results of the programs from the people who have actually used them and benefited. Check out this site below with actual audio testimonials from numerous users who have benefited from the program.
