Cure for Panic Attacks
Cure for panic attacks seem to take forever because you are suffering with this disease. But in reality, a panic episode usually lasts from 20 minutes to an hour. Normally no more than that. But the impact it can have on your life is very magnified.
Panic attacks are unforgiving in that they will come when you don’t expect them to arrive. Then when you do expect an episode to occur alas it does not. What are you to do? Please understand that panic attacks can be cured. There are no simple cures for the episodes that Aladdin can provide, but you have got to be your own Genie in a bottle.
Firs of all, avoid getting embarrassed by your problem. It would be different if you suffered from incontinence. So that you are not able to go to your daughter basketball game without sitting closer to the restroom than any of the other parents. Ignoring the panic attack will often cause an episode to come on again. Why? Because consciously you are suppressing the possibility of the attack. All the while you are focussing on an attack. Just try to forget about it and you can do that by following the tips below.
Panic attacks bring on a deteriorating quality of life. Add to that the embarrassment you may feel and this is a recipe for depression. Why do you think that depression and panic attacks as well as generalized anxiety disorder often runs together? Because of this phenomenon.
One temptation you might have already accepted is to take a pill. Many doctors in Westernized medical circles will prescribe an anti depressant or something like it. These are what in the 1980s used to be called happy pills. Prozac made it as a very popular anti depressant that belongs to a class of medications called an SSRI because of where it actually works in the brain.
These were quite powerful but alas the human body will always accommodate for the new medication. This virtually rendered Prozac ineffective long term. So people gained weight, became more depressed. Ate lots of carbohydrates and the cycle continued.
You see you may take a pill and experience quick and immediate relief for your symptoms. But what happens when you stop taking the pills? Will you be able to maintain that “high” or will you need to be re dosed?
That is the huge problem with drugs. You have to keep on taking them once you start. They may work fine in the short term but aren’t you interested in results that will last for a long time?
It is really up to you and your doctor if you want to take medications or a natural method for curing panic attacks. You will need to use behavioral modification, avoidance and awareness if you want long term success.
