Medications just don’t hit their target and just plain out fall short of doing what they claim to do. You should be familiar with the symptoms. Shortness of breath, perspiration, dizziness, palpitations in your chest, trembling, detachment from reality, thoughts of going crazy, and even thinking you are about to die.
Many sufferers of these attacks view medication as a life saver because it reduces the frequency of panic attacks, thereby limiting the amount of time one spends having to experience going through any of the symptoms.
These people are so grateful that the symptoms don’t occur as frequently as they used to that they don’t even realize the truth. The truth is that they have not been cured, they are just getting some temporary relief.
Medication provides them this temporary relief and room to relax until the next attack strikes. The problem with medication is that it does not get to the root or cause of the attacks. As a result, it does not offer a cure or solution to the panic attack, just some frequency relief. It cannot remove the fear that those anxiety panic attack symptoms brought on.

Overcoming anxiety is no small task.
It takes practice and a lot of hard work.
I used to have panic attacks once a week
due to my high anxiety, so I definitely feel
for you. Fortunately, I can do a lot more
for you than empathize.
By utilizing the techiques below, I was slowly
able to gain control over my anxiety and stop
my panic attacks from occuring. If you
exercise these techiques regularly, you too
will see great improvements in anxiety,
tension and stress.
Breathing:
As the anxiety creeps up, begin to count in
your head. Count 1,2,3,4 -- 1,2,3,4 -- 1,2,3,4
pausing on the dashes and so on.
You're not going to actually say or
even think the numbers. You're going
to breath the numbers.
Take a deep breath in through your
nose for the 1 and 2. Then take a
deep breath out through your mouth
for the 3 and 4. Practice this routine
for a few minutes a day until it
becomes an automated exercise for you.
Practicing really helps a lot.
Practice in a controlled environment.
I used to practice before bed. When
panic does hit, this self-defense
mechanism kicks in without effort.
Control Your Thinking:
When you have negative thoughts,
negative things will come into your
life. Conversely when you have positive
thoughts, positive things will come
into your life.
That's because thoughts steer the
direction of your life.
The same holds true in moments of high
anxiety. It's important during these
times to monitor your thoughts and
make sure you force calming ideas
and images into your head.
Nothing is really as bad as it seems and ten
years from now,this particularly stressful
situation won't exist - so control your
thinking to avoid your mind from falling
into a negative thought spiral.
As soon as you have a negative thought,
throw it out of your head and
counterbalance yourself with a
positive or optimistic thought.
This is a hard one, but after
you monitor your thoughts for
a week or two, you begin to think
more positive in general.
These two tactics helped me a lot.
Other helpful ideas are:
- Participat in Therapy
- Talk to someone you trust
- Exercise (cardio works best)
- Yoga
- Stretching
- Reading
- Meditation
- Take a hot shower
- Go for a Walk
- Listen to Music
