What are panic attacks? How do I stop?

Panic attacks are intense feelings of fear and anxiety that may occur unexpectedly. Can be combined with one or more physical symptoms such as palpitations, tremors, rapid breathing (shallow breathing), tingling feeling in arms or face (pins and needles), and feeling dizzy, as the world is "closer to you."

Many people are afraid to move on or die during a panic attack, but attacks are not physically dangerous, melted in 10-30 minutes.

Despite Panic attacks not considered harmful, they are certainly the emotional damage, often leading to a fragile state of mind in which the patient obsessed with the possibility of another attack occurs. Unfortunately, this obsession with "loop" often leads to more panic attacks, production a "cycle of panic and anxiety" it may be difficult to break.

There is much evidence to suggest that levels stress levels associated with panic attacks weaken the immune system, so learn to deal with them is actually a real problem health, not just a matter of emotional health.

The drug is sometimes used to "cover up" symptoms of panic attacks, but in my experience, there are only two proven methods to stop them breathing exercises and techniques to reduce stress, cognitive (The thought of a panic attack). The combination of these two often produces better results.

You can find many information to buy Online breathing exercises, but a good basic technique is to sit quietly and concentrate on breathing slowly, making sure you exhale breathe. This reduces slightly the amount of oxygen you take in, and has a calming effect, display in minutes.

Usually think more oxygen to our system is good, but too much oxygen can cause hyperventilation, which is known to produce anxiety. You've probably seen the old "breathe into a paper bag" technique. It works on the same principle: to reduce the consumption of oxygen (A little) to calm the central nervous system.

Cognitive techniques for reducing stress are also effective and can be used in combination with breathing exercises to reduce anxiety and panic symptoms. Take the time to learn some of these techniques can improve their ability to cope with stress and anxiety and even stop panic attacks that occur in some cases.

A simple technique but effective, is one I call "Questions and Answers." To begin, sit comfortably, eyes closed and mentally start the following questions:

How do you feel to be calm and relaxed?

How would you feel if I was now at peace with myself and the world?

How do you feel in ________ now? (Fill in the blanks with the name of someone calm, relaxed and in control. It can be a friend, a celebrity or a person representing those qualities for you)

Ask questions calmly and slowly to previous you, a pause between each question to consider the response. You can repeat these questions to himself many times – remember that questions slowly and stop each time to examine the response.

Using a cognitive technique as "Questions and Answers", combined with simple exercises Breathing is one of the most effective ways to stop panic attacks, and prevent the future. The more you practice these exercises, the more you achieve, and a lower part of panic attacks of his life.
