The following steps will eliminate (or at least significantly reduce) your panic attacks: 1.Breathe properly - if you control your breathing, you control panic. As soon as you notice the signs of anxiety, check your breathing: breathe in slowly through your nose pushing your tummy out (to the count of 5 or so). Breathe out slowly and for a bit longer (to the count of 7 or so) through your mouth. Do not breathe rapidly or shallowly (in the chest area). This will soon restore the balance of oxygen and you will feel a lot better. 2. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy! CBT is proven to be the most effective thing for panic attacks, OCD and anxiety etc. It takes a bit of work, but it is super effective. (After 15 years of panic attacks, mine stopped completely). You can speak to your doctor about taking a course or you can take a course for free online at: www.livinglifetothefull.com 3. Try relaxation exercise tapes (progressive muscular relaxation). They really make a difference if you practise often enough (i.e. twice a day). They will also help you sleep better if done at bedtime. You can get free downloads online. E.g.: http://www.studentservices.utas.edu.au/counselling/audio_resources/index.html With each step practise makes perfect. (i.e. practise the steps every day, not just when you are feeling bad). I hope you feel better soon. Best of luck!<br><b>References : </b><br> Hi, sorry to hear you are feeling so bad.

]]> Comment on How to Deal with Panic Attacks? by Emily http://www.howtopreventpanicattacks.com/how-to-deal-with-panic-attacks/how-to-deal-with-panic-attacks-4/comment-page-1#comment-1673 Emily Fri, 26 Feb 2010 22:37:59 +0000 http://www.howtopreventpanicattacks.com/how-to-deal-with-panic-attacks/how-to-deal-with-panic-attacks-4#comment-1673 Stress is the chief cause of most anxiety, panic and social phobias. But stress is not just about feeling tense and wired. It's about the triggering of our hard-wired "Fight or Flight Response." And it's about the release of toxic hormones — drip, drip drip — into our system. These hormones seep into our blood and tissues where, over time, they set up conditions for "attacks" of fear, anxiety and panic. Symptoms of anxiety attacks such as dizziness, nausea or increased heart rate can occur at anytime so learning how to stop panic attacks is essential. Overwhelming feelings of anxiety and worry can often times be stressful and unpleasant to experience. The following are proven methods that have worked for many people to finally overcome such episodes from occurring. The first thing you need to do is actually address the issue or problem that is making you anxious. While you can certainly avoid or ignore it, there's no telling when you'll have a panic attack again so it's best to confront it. While many often associate feelings of fear and anxiety as being negative, they can also be used to your advantage when they are put into action to rectify the issue. Another effective method that may be a little more difficult to implement is by replacing any destructive thoughts with ones that are more positive. It's important to note that negative thoughts will only sustain panic attacks. It's quite natural for many to imagine the worst case scenario so be sure to take a minute to question your thoughts and whether they really have a realistic chance of occurring. Taking small steps is better than not taking any at all so anything you can do to rectify the issue will help a great deal. Then as you find a solution to the problem, you know how to effectively deal with it in the future should it ever occur again. Implementing these above steps will require patience on your part but the effort will be worth it as you learn how to effectively stop panic and anxiety attacks. Do you want to find that cure? Do you struggle with panic attacks? Do you want them to stop so you can live a normal life again? Well, there is a cure and you can stop your panic attacks now! I had came across many pp get treated "PANIC ATTACKS" even for many years & even without taking medicines.

You could also have you dad write a note of some sort. There isn't a "right" way to deal with panic attacks, it's a horrible feeling (trust me, I know). The best thing to do is probably go see a doctor about it. There's medication and therapy available out there if you need it.<br><b>References : </b><br> You should probably talk to your teachers alone, maybe after class and tell them that you’re suffering from panic attacks, that way they won’t question you when you bolt out of the classroom.

I have sever panic attacks like you describe. If I fall asleep for an hour or so, I wake up with a start, and jump right out of bed. Sometimes I am sweating so badly, I have to change my clothes or pajamas because they are soaking wet. I also wake up in the morning the same way. I have Remeron to take that has made it much better. Before that, I used to think I was going to die; you know what I mean. I get up and immediately take my meds, and then do normal things, like feed the dog, make breakfast, anything that is part of my normal routine to make the time pass quicker. I talk to myself, and do deep breathing exercises. sometimes it takes 4 or 5 hours for the episode to pass. So, consequently, I cannot go out in the morning for appointments, etc. That is my biggest problem is that I cannot make myself go outside at all except on my back steps. so, in that way, you are lucky that you can fo outside. I think it helps more to be able to get outside in the fresh air. I can sympathize with your situation, but my shrink, and other doctors have never been able to pinpoint WHY I have them. I have read many places and heard that sometimes there just is no reason for the attacks, they just happen. do you talk to a therapist at all? that really helps. Good luck to you.<br><b>References : </b><br>personal experience http://www.medhelp.org HI!
