Panic attacks are terrible but luckily do not cause any physical harm. Only a person who is in the situation can explain the horrible nightmare they experience when this condition comes as a surprise without even the slightest indication. Here I'll share my own panic attacks treatment.
1.The first thing to do is to familiarize yourself with the common symptoms like:
- Sense of dying
- Fear of going to work or even getting out of the house
- Sweating
- Shortness of breath
- Feeling numbness
- Weakness
- Rapid heartbeat
- Dry mouth
- Dizziness
- Chest pain
- Nausea
Being aware of this will drastically relieve the horror of you getting a heart attack or going insane. Think of these symptoms as a routine and normal and don't fear them.
2. Another useful treatment is to change your breathing pattern. Change the pattern in a way that you breathe in for a shorter time and out for a longer one. Breathe not into your chest, but deep into the belly. It may be difficult at first but when you do it regularly, you'll see the massive difference.
So, let's go give it a try! Practice this exercise when you're not having any anxiety attack.
-Sit at a comfortable place and close your eyes
-Focusing on your breathing pattern, breathe in for 7 seconds and then out for 11 seconds. If you feel comfortable, just in this position, the body has no option other than relaxing. You'll realize that a regular repetition of it will automatically make you breathe this way the next time your attack occurs.
3. Just observe your anxiety rather than getting afraid or puzzled. It's not a cure but it really helps out. Think of it as a normal and usual happening to you. Because the more you get annoyed or tensed about it, the more will be the fire that fuels up! Remember, your panic is nothing compared to your courage to fight from it. Staying in this situation will make your mind realize that a your attack is not threatening; hence the panic or anxiety level will be lessened down.
4. Another important treatment is to tell your unconscious mind that the situation which starts your condition is not dangerous at all.
5. Exercise regularly! It's possibly the easiest treatment. When you exercise, the pressure that makes you feel like your breath and chest are tightened gets reduced. It also helps making you fresh and calm all the day.
6. Try to Meditate as much as possible. It helps you control your attacks and makes your mind set and focused.
All in all, try you are best to know and judge the cause that triggers panic attack first, and then do something that makes you relax. It could be some good books, your favorite music, walk for like 30 minutes, spending time with your loved ones and many other things as well. Making your mind relaxed is the central point and the best panic attack treatment. Some natural panic attack treatments are chamomile, Kava Kava and Siberian Ginseng. These are the natural remedies you can use to avoid or treat panic or anxiety attacks.
